JOST World at IAA Transportation 2026: Connecting Worlds – Enabling Solutions Ahead

Across four dedicated working worlds – Transport & Logistics, Construction, Mining and City – JOST presents products and technologies to improve productivity, increase vehicle uptime, and enhance operational safety. From new modular towing systems and upgradable fifth wheel platforms to advanced axle technologies and digital fleet solutions, the portfolio addresses real-world operational challenges of each sector while supporting customers on their path toward more connected, automated and sustainable transportation. Product and application experts from JOST, Hyva, ROCKINGER and TRIDEC from around the world will demonstrate the latest technologies and explain how JOST World solutions address region-specific requirements and individual customer challenges.

“Our industries are changing faster than ever: Transport and logistics, construction, mining, and urban environments are all facing new challenges, from efficiency and safety to electrification, connectivity and automation. At this year’s IAA, visitors will experience how JOST World connects technologies, systems and expertise across four working worlds. We will show how our solutions help customers address key industry challenges today while preparing for the future. I look forward to welcoming our customers and partners in Hanover,” said Joachim Dürr, CEO of JOST Werke SE.

Products and Technologies for a Changing Industry

Across the commercial vehicle industry, fleet operators and manufacturers are under growing pressure to increase efficiency, reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO), and maximize vehicle uptime.
JOST introduces innovations that are designed to help customers meet these challenges through smarter, more flexible, and reliable solutions.

Among the key product launches in Transport & Logistics is JOST ADDTRONIC, a new modular fifth wheel platform designed to evolve alongside changing customer requirements. Using standardized interfaces and upgrade packages for safety, driver assistance, comfort and operational efficiency, ADDTRONIC enables fleets to introduce new functionality progressively while protecting existing vehicle investments.

Another major product launch is the NEW ROCKINGER. Combining proven towing technology with a future-oriented modular architecture, it allows customers to adapt their vehicles to changing safety, comfort and driver-assistance requirements without compromising compatibility with existing vehicle concepts. The new generation also introduces improvements in ergonomics, durability, and operational safety.
JOST is also expanding its axle portfolio with DCA One4All, an axle platform that combines disc-brake and drum-brake variants within a common architecture. The platform gives trailer manufacturers and fleet operators greater flexibility while helping reduce complexity across production, maintenance and spare-parts management.
For low-loader, heavy-haul and specialized transport applications across multiple industries, JOST presents solutions such as the TRIDEC TP-O Low pendular suspension System, which combines low installation height, optimized load distribution and high maneuverability for heavy and oversized transport applications.

In Construction & Mining, JOST showcases products and solutions developed for demanding working environments. The Hyva Digital Tipping Solutions (DTS), including DTS Guide, provides digital monitoring and decision-making support for tipping operations across both construction and mining applications. By connecting vehicle-level information with fleet-level insights, the solution helps customers improve safety, productivity, and operational transparency.
The Hyva Hydro Pneumatic Suspension Series (HPS) further supports demanding mining and off-road operations, improving vehicle stability and operator comfort by effectively absorbing severe shocks and vibrations.

For City applications, JOST demonstrates how technologies such as BusLink support safe and efficient urban mobility. The articulated bus control system enhances vehicle stability and maneuverability while remaining compatible with battery-electric, hydrogen-powered, and conventional drivetrains.

Across all working worlds, visitors will also experience technologies that address industry-wide trends such as electrification, automation, and intelligent vehicle operation. The JOST KKS automatic coupling system enables a controlled, camera-guided coupling process, while Hyva’s ePTO allows battery-electric commercial vehicles to perform tipping, lifting and other hydraulic operations without the need for a combustion-engine PTO. Together, these solutions demonstrate how JOST is helping customers bridge the gap between today’s operational requirements and tomorrow's mobility solutions.

IAA 2026 / Connecting Worlds – Enabling Solutions Ahead

Wherever the world works, JOST connects. The company does not simply keep pace with the sectors it serves; it develops the systems that help drive them forward. That is the ambition JOST brings to IAA Transportation 2026. And that is the promise behind every connection it creates.

We connect more than components. We connect worlds.
