Mabye we can help you by providing insights into our different fields of interest.
With the increased complexity of hybrid, electric and autonomous vehicle systems – along with the need for improved engine efficiency, reduced emissions and precise energy management –the demand for calibration solutions is greater than ever before.
Electric vehicles are an integral part of the future automotive ecosystem. New emissions regulations are quickly being adopted around the globe, and consumer demand for electric automobiles is rising. Taken together, both of these factors are accelerating the development of electrified powertrains and increasing their complexity.
With over seven decades of experience in the mobility industry, we understand the challenges our customers face in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. By using sustainable design and development processes, we are not only helping reduce the CO₂ footprint of all types of powertrains, but we are also keeping affordability in mind for the end consumer.
The automotive industry has adopted numerous innovative methodologies and techniques over the last several years. Few of these, however, have been as groundbreaking as data intelligence and Big Data. At AVL, our data intelligence services support the complete vehicle development process, from the concept phase to after-sales management.
With the ever-increasing complexity of modern vehicles and with large amounts of data now available, we are leading the way in developing connected tools to manage this complexity, reduce costs and accelerate time to market. Our IT Solutions, digital tools and cloud solutions help customers set goals and comply with new, global legal requirements.
At AVL, our unique understanding of the whole automotive picture makes us the ideal partner for the complete vehicle integration process, from the concept stage and the start of production, all the way to the in-use phase. With our own unique vision, we intend to sustainably shape the future of vehicle integration.
In terms of technology, innovation and the wide-ranging possibilities they offer the automotive industry, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD) are incredibly exciting. We are actively shaping and designing the thrilling new technologies that will play a critical role in future mobility options.
Our commissioning engineers ensure that everything on the customer's testbed works harmoniously, while our Global Customer Service team prides itself on ensuring that customers can effectively and efficiently use AVL products and systems.
The hybrid powertrain comprises specific key elements: the combustion engine, transmission, battery, fuel cell, electric motor and control system. Within function development at AVL, our most important task is developing these components in such a way that they can be easily integrated into the vehicle.
Working in international automotive markets means understanding not only our comprehensive product portfolio but also the differing needs of our customers in these countries. Adapting to these requirements and taking them into consideration when developing your sales strategy is a vital part of this role.
To adapt to today’s new automotive landscape, we now design hybrid, electric and combustion powertrains. We do this from the initial concept stage all the way to series production for most of the major vehicle manufacturers in the world. A big part of powertrain development is the mechanical engineering behind it, and this is exactly where you come in.
Our supply chain management is fully integrated in all of our key processes by continuously delivering results in line with business requirements and our corporate quality and environmental goals. Using our excellent management organization and innovative tools and processes, we provide business intelligence for decision-making processes.
