From VOITH to DRIVENTIC: A New Global Chapter

With this transformation, Driventic retains its existing product portfolio, engineering expertise, R&D capabilities and international production facilities, continuing direct operations in 19 countries. This new structure ensures uninterrupted supply, reliable technical support and consistent high service standards for global OEM and fleet customers.

Stronger Presence in Türkiye

Following the global restructuring, Driventic has strengthened its presence in Türkiye with the establishment of Driventic Ticari Araç Endüstriyel Yönetim Ltd. Şti.

Onur Yenihan, who has served as Sales Manager for the Voith Turbo Commercial Vehicles Product Group in Türkiye for 17 years, has been appointed General Manager of Driventic Türkiye.

“Same Expertise, New Brand”

Driventic Türkiye General Manager Onur Yenihan commented on the transition:

“The 100-year legacy of Voith in commercial vehicle driveline technologies—its products, production plants, R&D centers and highly skilled teams—has been preserved in full and brought together under our new identity: Driventic.

Our primary goal is to go beyond being an automotive supplier, to remain agile within the dynamics of our industry, and to evolve into a technology-creating company that adds value to the sector.

Our facilities in Munich-Garching, as well as other production and R&D locations in Germany, China and worldwide, continue operating seamlessly under the Driventic name.

We maintain uninterrupted support in supply, aftersales services, warranty and technical assistance.

As Driventic, we continue offering the full range of commercial vehicle products and solutions previously provided under Voith.”
