The 2022 edition of this Annual Strategy Dossier report analyses the overall strategy focus and provides Insights into the Strategies & Plans being conceptualized & pursued by Navistar International Corporation for the near to medium term with trucking cruising in top gear in a marked upswing phase since late 2020 while the global economy has been striving to make a comeback from the COVID-19 pandemic. Navistar's enterprise-wide 4.0 strategy, post acquisition by Traton, continues to be pivoted around boosting profitability by 2025 and wresting market share through new product introductions & technological innovations. Further, reinforcement of market positioning & presence in the Class 6/7 segment with the new MV series, transition towards sustainable transportation with the development of electric & hydrogen powered drivetrains and expansion of industrial footprint are likely to enable Navistar to take its game to the next level under a new leadership in the U.S. Class 6-8 truck market going forward

The Global Trucking industry has been recovering steadily from the COVID-19 outbreak while being at the crossroads of fundamental changes, disruption & transformation with trucking cruising in top gear amid booming order intake as well as freight volumes & rates and robust fleet utilization levels across fleet operators which reached pre-COVID-19 levels across most key global markets, except China. Trucking has also been facing modest headwinds in form of supply chain disruptions & bottlenecks, semi-conductor chip shortages & rising input as well as material costs which have been impeding the overall recovery momentum. The industry also continues to make steady progress towards development of a range of sustainable technologies geared towards decarbonization of transportation over long term while continuing the development of innovative services & business models configured on connectivity & autonomy. However, projections for the slowdown of global economic recovery over near term owing to uncertainty over the likely direction of the pandemic & rising inflation levels necessitating monetary policy tightening are likely to be a concern for the industry. Overall, Trucking is projected to maintain its cruising speed & overall growth momentum across most markets in 2022, with the exception of China, which is in the correction mode following real-estate sector woes and a zero-tolerance policy towards COVID-19
