TEXA is the platform you buy when coverage depth matters more than entry price: the best European-truck support available, real ADAS calibration integration, and the Navigator TXT Multihub 2 — the most capable VCI in the multi-brand world.
TEXA coverage at a glance
TEXA's IDC5 Truck software covers all North American and European makes with particular depth on European platforms, ADAS systems and the newest model years. OHW, marine and bike licenses extend the same hardware across five industries.
| Category | Coverage | Depth |
|---|---|---|
| US Class 8 | All makes | Full |
| European | DAF, MAN, Scania, MB, Iveco, Renault — deepest available | Excellent |
| ADAS | Radar/camera calibration with TEXA targets | Industry-leading |
| Off-highway | OHW license — construction & ag | Add-on |
| Electric trucks | Growing e-TRUCK coverage incl. HV battery | Emerging |
What TEXA does best — and where it falls short
TEXA wins on hardware quality (the Axone Voice tablet and Multihub 2 are genuinely rugged and fast), European depth, and ADAS. It loses on entry price and on guided-diagnostic content, where Jaltest still leads.
- Strengths: Best European-truck coverage in the multi-brand world.
- Strengths: ADAS calibration built into the platform — not bolted on.
- Strengths: Navigator TXT Multihub 2: CAN-FD, DoIP-ready, the most future-proof VCI available.
- Strengths: One hardware ecosystem across truck, OHW, marine, bike, car.
- Watch out for: Highest entry price in the multi-brand tier.
- Watch out for: Guided diagnostics content thinner than Jaltest on US makes.
- Watch out for: US-market-specific features (fleet reporting) trail JPRO.
Real pricing — hardware, software and renewals

TEXA vs Jaltest — which is better?
European-heavy fleets and ADAS work: TEXA. Guided-diagnostics content and value: Jaltest. Full comparison on Jaltest vs TEXA.
Is the Axone Voice worth it over running IDC5 on my own laptop?
The tablet is genuinely shop-proof — drop-rated, glove-friendly, sunlight-readable. If your diagnostic computer lives in the bay, yes. Office-adjacent use: IDC5 on a laptop saves $2,000.
Does TEXA support electric trucks?
Growing — TEXA's e-TRUCK coverage (HV battery, inverters, isolation testing) is the most developed multi-brand EV offering. See the electric truck hub.
