HERE enhances Scania's next-gen infotainment platform

Scania is using HERE SDK, HERE location services and dynamic map data for commercial navigation and ADAS use cases.

A global solution

Scania, a world-class provider of transport solutions, has chosen HERE to power its next-generation infotainment platform.

The HERE-powered connected navigation solution will be available for Scania's fleet of trucks globally, including in China, Japan and South Korea. Scania is using HERE SDK's mapping, routing and search functions that incorporate truck-specific road information, vehicle regulations and points of interest. Scania will also use HERE SDK to build its companion mobile application for drivers, offering a consistent experience both in and out of the vehicle.

Beyond navigation, Scania will use HERE speed limit data to implement an Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) solution, required by European law. The ISA solution for Scania is an in-vehicle feature that helps drivers acknowledge and comply with legal speed limits on any given road. The HERE ISA Map contains explicit speed limits visible on road signs as well as implicit speed limits derived from road signs without numerical values.

The data from HERE includes information on commercial vehicle regulations for truck speed limits. HERE data and services are used to enhance various ADAS functions, such as fuel optimization through predictive powertrain management, which supports Scania's shift towards more sustainable transport systems. The electrification of Scania trucks will be aided by access to HERE location services including HERE EV Routing and optimization services.

We chose HERE because of the quality of its location data and services and the ease of integration into our embedded and cloud-based systems. Integrating connected maps into the vehicle lowers fuel consumption and enables new functions for Battery Electric Vehicles and autonomous vehicles.
