Navistar parent company Traton Group in July reported strong operating results and revenue for the first half of 2022, despite what it called an extremely challenging market.

Truck makers Volvo Group, Daimler Truck and Traton Group announced their joint venture, launched in December 2021 to develop charging infrastructure in Europe, gained the final necessary regulatory approvals.

Traton Group reported operating income and revenue rose sharply in 2021 compared with a year earlier, amid its strong truck and service businesses, and the integration of new U.S. subsidiary Navistar.

Göran Nyberg, executive member for sales and customer solutions at MAN Truck & Bus SE, will join Navistar as executive vice president of commercial operations March 1.

The Traton Group reported sharp increases in its unit sales and incoming orders for commercial vehicles in 2021 compared with 2020 despite the continuing influence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the difficulties in the supply of semiconductors.

Traton Group, which now includes U.S.-based truck maker Navistar, reported gains in net income and revenue for its 2021 nine-month period on the strength of truck manufacturing and financial services.

Traton SE named Christian Levin CEO. He succeeds Matthias Gründler, who left the company.

Volkswagen AG’s truck division Traton SE became the latest manufacturer to warn the global shortage of semiconductors is jeopardizing deliveries.

Traton SE, whose purchase of Navistar International Corp. closed in July, announced a new CEO and chief financial officer for the American truck maker as it added executives who played key roles in the merger.

Navistar International Corp. announced it merged with Munich-based Traton Group in a transaction valued at $3.7 billion, finalizing a strategic alliance launched in 2017.
