ZF launches new Commercial Vehicle Solutions division

ZF has launched its new Commercial Vehicle Solutions (CVS) division. The new division unites ZF’s former Commercial Vehicle Technology and Commercial Vehicle Control Systems divisions, the latter of which was formed from ZF’s May 2020 acquisition of WABCO. ZF’s CVS division is aimed at solutions for safe, sustainable and digitized transport, the company noted in a press release. ZF’s Commercial Vehicle Solutions division is supported by around 25,000 employees based across 61 locations in 28 countries.
