NASVHILLE—Hyundai Translead showcased a lineup of new products and initiatives at TMC’s 2025 Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition, all designed to enhance efficiency and connectivity across the industry.
Hyundai Translead’s latest advancements aim to address real-world challenges faced by fleets across North America. From next-generation trailer technology to enhanced operational efficiency, these new offerings reinforce the company’s commitment to progress beyond just manufacturing trailers.
“Hyundai Translead is dedicated to delivering solutions that strengthen the connections between businesses, families, and communities,” said Sean Kenney, CEO of Hyundai Translead. “This commitment is at the core of everything we do. Our latest products and initiatives reflect our unwavering mission of keeping our world in motion.”
Anza Truck Body: At the show, Hyundai Translead introduced the Anza Medium-Duty Truck Body. Suited for a wide variety of industries and applications, the Anza Truck Body can be shipped as a kit, reducing shipping costs and allowing for easy, on-site assembly, according to the manufacturer.
Available in multiple lengths and interior heights, Anza features Hyundai Translead OEM components, such as a standard high bottom rail and composite panels, and is engineered to accommodate a wide variety of accessories, from lift gate and ramp preferences to load securement solutions.
Latitude Flatbed: Hyundai Translead’s completely redesigned Latitude Flatbed is both lighter and stronger than previous models, with a focus on ease of use.
To enhance driver ergonomics and maneuverability, the new design includes a standard patent-pending rear ladder with three points of contact, as well as a rear storage box for added accessibility. Standard j-hooks and j-tracks, as well as under lighting, enhance usability and load securement.
The Latitude Flatbed is also protected by a patent-pending high-impact side rail with a strong but lighter frame. An optional rolling tarp system and side ladders provide additional convenience and easier access to cargo. All of these are also available for retrofit on any flatbed through HT Aftermarket Genuine Parts.
HT HANA: Focusing on technological solutions, Hyundai Translead introduced HT HANA, an advanced insulation system that maximizes thermal performance while reducing thickness. HT HANA can maintain internal temperatures with a 35% improved thermal efficiency compared to conventional systems. This advanced insulation system is thin but durable, long-lasting, and engineered to be easily repaired when needed, minimizing downtime.
HT TEMPS: Taking the next steps to help protect fleets, the Thermal Event Monitoring & Prediction System (HT TEMPS) alerts drivers with a BLE-enabled warning system to take timely, preventative action before thermal events escalate.
HT TEMPS monitors airflow interruptions and heat buildup to predict potential thermal events in trailer systems and uploads the data to fleet Transportation Management Systems to provide accurate and customized detection configuration. This system significantly enhances fleet maintenance and can help reduce loss in time, equipment, and cargo.
HT TEMPS is in the final stages of field testing and will be available later this year.
HT LinkVue: Hyundai Translead also reported a significant update to HT LinkVue, a 360-degree trailer camera system that boosts driver visibility, reduces blind spots, and ensures accuracy in tight dock maneuvers, now with third-party integration capabilities.
Hyundai Translead is partnering with fleet management solutions providers to extend the camera system’s capabilities.
Hyundai Translead’s partnership with Platform Science is designed to offer seamless integration to their open platform for fleet data, enhancing operational efficiency to maximize performance, increase connectivity, and optimize asset management strategies.
“We’re thrilled to collaborate with Hyundai Translead on integrating HT LinkVue into the Virtual Vehicle ecosystem. This partnership represents not only additional choice for our fleets but enhanced versatility and scalability of the platform,” said Platform Science Vice President of Strategic Programs and Corporate Development Brendan Wood. “As trailer technology drives the next wave of advancements in transportation, HT LinkVue is playing a crucial role in elevating safety standards and shaping the future of mobility.”
The new update will make it easier for fleets to integrate HT LinkVue into their operations while leveraging their existing fleet management solution investments.
“HT LinkVue represents our commitment to advancing trailer technology in ways that improve driver awareness, efficiency, and fleet connectivity,” said Young Jae Park, Hyundai Translead’s v.p. of R&D. “By partnering with leading fleet management platforms, we are ensuring that our customers have the tools they need to optimize operations and drive smarter, data-driven decisions.”
