WE WILL PROVIDE THE TOOLS

The garages in the Top Truck network already have the tools they need to repair and maintain commercial vehicles. Now, the
Top Truck network is going to deliver new technical tools to help our garages attract more fleet customers and deliver more
dynamic services.

These technical tools include:
• GNM - Online platform that connects garages, networks and fleet customers
• BDS - Pan-European breakdown service for commercial vehicles
• R&M - Online Repair & Maintenance agreements for fleet customers
• G-CONNECT - Telematics system linking garages to connected vehicles

Groupauto and Top Truck will use these technical tools to differentiate our garages, attract new customers, and prepare the
independent aftermarket to provide tomorrow’s services today.

Top Truck is the largest and best independent commercial vehicle repair garage network in the world.

Now, let’s go tell everyone.
