Daimler Truck: Pioneering with BlackBerry QNX

Daimler Truck has blazed a trail through 125 years of automotive history. That pioneering spirit will be tested as you set out to transform the industry once again. In BlackBerry QNX, you have a partner that’s here for the long haul. 

For All Who Keep the World Moving

Explorer... Trailblazer... Daimler

Daimler Truck’s reputation as a pioneer is unmatched, whether it’s manufacturing the world’s first truck, replacing steel with lightweight aluminum, or implementing ABS as standard. 

Embrace a New Path

Divesting from Daimler AG demonstrated your commitment to commercial vehicles. It also proved your ability to make tough decisions today in order to take advantage of opportunities tomorrow.

The Best Is Yet to Come

Next comes your biggest test: Balancing safety and innovation to embed electrification and automation into the heart of commercial vehicle development. 
Lighting the Way from Now to Next

Lighting the Way from Now to Next

In the future, driverless, electrified vehicles will deliver progress at less of a cost to the planet. But this vision depends on a flawless track record in safety and performance. Trust takes years to build and seconds to break, particularly when we’re talking about a 30-ton truck on a road full of people.

That’s why BlackBerry® QNX® is the perfect platform for pioneers. Certified to ISO 26262 ASIL D by TÜV Rheinland, our foundational software provides peace of mind on safety. But a pioneering spirit also means progress and efficiency. By using our pre-certified OS and hypervisor products, you’ll speed the journey from proof of concept to wheels on the road.

And our latest innovation—BlackBerry IVY—can help Daimler Truck’s march toward electrification. Combining the best automotive and cloud technology from BlackBerry QNX and AWS, one use case would be to monitor, optimize, and accurately predict the lifespan of a battery.

Pioneers Keep People Moving

From an illustrious past to a software-defined future, we’ve charted Daimler Truck’s route to success. See how bleeding-edge innovations from BlackBerry QNX can help realize your vision of sustainable, driverless vehicles cruising the world’s highways and byways.
