Mechatronic Systems
Mechatronics integrates the electronic and mechanical worlds into systems that help to improve vehicle function and driver interaction.

One such system is the RunSmart Predictive Cruise system. A world premiere for heavy-duty trucking industry, this system offers significant fuel savings by combining the latest in GPS technology with digital mapping to provide a 3D profile of the road ahead. The truck evaluates the upcoming road profile more than one mile in advance and determines the most fuel efficient vehicle speed.

“The RunSmart Predictive Cruise system showcases our commitment to shape the future of transportation,” said Boeckenhoff. “And with Freightliner, the future starts right now.”
Talk about "driving the road ahead",
