However, new applications are constantly enabling a more efficient, secure and environmental-friendly transportation chain. This sector covers solutions for vehicles and other transportation devices such as trucks, courier vans, trailers, rail cargo and container shipping. To give an idea of the size of this sector, ACEA (2009) estimates the number of commercial trucks in Europe (EU23+2) to approximately 33 million. In addition there are some 250,000 trailers produced on a yearly basis, many of which also require connectivity.

Wireless M2M technology is enabling various applications of vital importance within the transportation sector. Monitoring operational status of fleets, road toll handling, road-user based charging, tracking and eco-driving are examples of applications that mean effective M2M solutions are becoming a necessity in order to establish a competitive edge in the transportation marketplace.

Telenor Connexion is working closely with both line-fit solutions with some of the leading manufacturers of vehicles as well as after-market solution providers serving the transportation and logistics sector.
