Authors Abstract
Content
Global Truck Application (GTA) defines a number of parameters that specify differences in driving and transport conditions for haulage operations worldwide. The aim is to provide a uniform perspective on truck use, guaranteeing that the company “speaks the same language” within all its divisions and departments – product planning, product development, sales and aftermarket. It provides a framework for developing a modularized vehicle platform with an optimal set of differentiated variants to give full flexibility for specifying the most transport-efficient solution for each individual customer.
