La expansi\u00f3n de Traton en el mercado norteamericano se encuentra ahora en la recta final: La filial de veh\u00edculos comerciales de Volkswagen acaba de firmar un acuerdo vinculante de adquisici\u00f3n con el fabricante estadounidense de veh\u00edculos comerciales Navistar. Se espera que la transacci\u00f3n se complete a mediados de 2021.<\/p>\n
La adquisici\u00f3n de la empresa estadounidense, por valor de mil millones de euros, ha estado en discusi\u00f3n durante a\u00f1os. La adquisici\u00f3n se basa en una alianza estrat\u00e9gica que une a los dos grupos desde 2017. Mediante la compra conjunta y la colaboraci\u00f3n en nuevas tecnolog\u00edas y el posicionamiento complementario en diferentes mercados de Europa, Sudam\u00e9rica y Norteam\u00e9rica, ahora se va a crear una empresa global que est\u00e1 \"bien posicionada para beneficiarse de la mejora del rendimiento de la marca, el aumento de la innovaci\u00f3n y las capacidades l\u00edderes del sector\", seg\u00fan Traton.<\/p>\n
Seg\u00fan los t\u00e9rminos del acuerdo, la filial de veh\u00edculos comerciales de Volkswagen adquirir\u00e1 todas las acciones ordinarias en circulaci\u00f3n de Navistar a un precio en efectivo de $44,50 por acci\u00f3n. Traton posee actualmente el 16,7% del grupo estadounidense. La financiaci\u00f3n se estima en 3.700 millones de d\u00f3lares estadounidenses (aproximadamente 3.110 millones de euros) y ser\u00e1 aportada por Volkswagen. Traton tiene la intenci\u00f3n de mantener su calificaci\u00f3n de grado de inversi\u00f3n incluso despu\u00e9s de que se complete la transacci\u00f3n, dijo la compa\u00f1\u00eda. Mientras tanto, la fusi\u00f3n a\u00fan debe ser aprobada por los accionistas de Navistar y las autoridades reguladoras pertinentes.<\/p>\n
\"El anuncio de hoy acelera nuestra Estrategia de Campe\u00f3n Global ampliando nuestro alcance a trav\u00e9s de los mercados clave de camiones en todo el mundo, incluyendo la escala y las capacidades para ofrecer productos, tecnolog\u00edas y servicios de vanguardia a nuestros clientes\", dijo Matthias Gr\u00fcndler, CEO de Traton. \"Juntos, tendremos una mayor capacidad para satisfacer las demandas de las nuevas normativas y las tecnolog\u00edas de r\u00e1pido desarrollo en conectividad, propulsi\u00f3n y conducci\u00f3n aut\u00f3noma para clientes de todo el mundo.\"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

“The acquisition of Navistar will significantly leverage Traton\u2019s positioning in North America, one of the biggest and most profitable markets for heavy trucks. Together, the companies can enhance the scale and reach in key markets as well as create further synergies,” added Gunnar Kilian, Member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG responsible for Human Resources and the Truck & Bus Division.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Traton plans to finalise the details of its cooperation in the development of electric drives for commercial vehicles with Toyota’s commercial vehicle subsidiary Hino under a recently signed joint venture agreement<\/a> by the end of the year. Among other things, it is to be agreed which tasks and development priorities will be performed by the MAN, Scania and Volkswagen Caminh\u00f5es e \u00d4nibus (VWCO) brands on the one hand and Hino on the other.<\/p>\n Traton boss Matthias Gr\u00fcndler recently described the new joint venture as the next important step in the company’s electrification strategy. Against this background, Gr\u00fcndler also reaffirmed the Traton Group’s goal, made public last year, of investing one billion euros in electrification by 2025. Traton has created a common modular electric powertrain for its MAN, Scania and Volkswagen Caminh\u00f5es e \u00d4nibus (VWCO) brands, which has been used since this year in the first series-produced electric city buses from Scania and MAN and will be individually adapted depending on brand and application.<\/p>\n reuters.com<\/a>, traton.com<\/a><\/p>\n"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143340","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143340"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143340\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":232177,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143340\/revisions\/232177"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/143287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
