WABCO extended its long-term agreement to supply automated manual transmission (AMT) control technology for a global original equipment manufacturer, which is headquartered in Europe.

Under this extended agreement which is valued at more than $500 million, WABCO will continue to supply this global manufacturer with its current generation of AMT control technology. WABCO will also develop and introduce the next generation AMT control unit which will enable the latest technical advancements to be integrated into this customer’s global truck and bus series production. The contract is expected to continue until December 2027.

WABCO has sold more than four million AMT systems, which are designed to improve vehicle safety and comfort for commercial vehicle drivers, while providing cost savings through reduced fuel consumption and mechanical wear.

“We are delighted to receive a significant AMT controls contract extension with this industry-leading OEM which demonstrates that our customers trust and rely on WABCO’s leading technology,” said Jorge Solis, WABCO president of Truck, Bus and Car Original Equipment Manufacturers. “Confirming our global market leadership, this important agreement will help drive WABCO’s continued outperformance as our AMT controls market penetration increases.”
