ZF Aftermarket Nominated for Two Innovation Awards at Automechanika Frankfurt 2026
- ZF Bus Connect Remote Diagnostics nominated in the “Data, Connectivity & Cybersecurity” category
- ZF SCALAR Asset Insights nominated in the ”Commercial Vehicle & Fleet Innovation” category
- Visitors can experience both award-nominated solutions at the ZF Aftermarket booth during Automechanika Frankfurt, September 8-12, 2026
ZF Aftermarket's latest fleet management solutions have been nominated for the prestigious "Automechanika Innovation Awards 2026", emphasizing the company's commitment to reducing downtime and improving fleet operations.
ZF Bus Connect Remote Diagnostics has been nominated in the “Data, Connectivity & Cybersecurity” category for its workshop-level remote diagnostic capabilities. Built on the existing ZF Bus Connect platform, the solution securely connects a bus's internal CAN network with ZF [pro]Diagnostics, allowing technicians to remotely access vehicle systems, read detailed diagnostic data, run commands and receive live responses from vehicles in operation.
In the “Commercial Vehicle & Fleet Innovation” category, ZF SCALAR Asset Insights has been recognized for introducing a new approach to trailer diagnostics and fleet management. The digital analytics solution transforms diagnostic trouble code (DTC) data into a chronological health history for each trailer, providing fleet operators with visibility into the development of technical issues over time.
Together, the two nominations reflect ZF Aftermarket's strategy of delivering innovative solutions that help fleets move from reactive maintenance to smarter fleet management, enabled by data.
“Having two solutions shortlisted for the Automechanika Innovation Awards is a strong recognition of our commitment to developing technologies that solve real-world challenges for fleet operators, while Maximizing Uptime,” said Benoit Dessart, Head of Business Line Digital Solutions at ZF Aftermarket. "Both ZF Bus Connect Remote Diagnostics and ZF SCALAR Asset Insights demonstrate how digitalization is creating a more connected fleet ecosystem. By linking vehicle data, workshop diagnostics and ZF technologies, these solutions help customers increase uptime, improve efficiency and make better informed decisions.”
