“Friedrich has been influential at Navistar,” said Mathias Carlbaum, president and CEO of Navistar. “Under his leadership, Navistar has advanced an intimate joint alignment with the International truck and IC Bus dealer networks and dedicated all commercial operations to delivering maximum value that will lead to our customers’ success.”

Nyberg will transition to Navistar after serving in his current role since 2018, successfully launching a new generation of trucks for the company in his time. Prior to MAN, Nyberg worked at Volvo Group, with his final role being the company’s president of Volvo Trucks North America.

“Both Friedrich Baumann and Göran Nyberg are proven commercial vehicle experts with extensive experience and a clear understanding of customer needs in the transport industry,” said Christian Levin, CEO of Traton SE. “The change in personnel means that our international group of strong commercial vehicle brands is growing ever closer together. MAN, Navistar and thus the Traton Group as a whole will benefit from this change and exchange of experience.”
