Engine testing has a legacy of more than 70 years at AVL. This broad expertise has been demonstrated in thousands of engine testbed installations. On top of that, our propulsion system engineering team operates ICE and hybrid testbeds in tech centers around the world. Which is why our engine testing technology is continuously advanced by dedicated in-house expertise.
Our portfolio of engine test systems is available for a wide range of research and development tasks.
These include:
- Hardware verification
- System integration incl. hybrid components
- ECU / HCU calibration
- Hybrid operating strategy implementation
- Fuel consumption optimization
- Electric charge determination
- Steady state and dynamic duty tests
- Engine response optimization
- Exhaust emissions development and homologation
With advanced engine and hybrid testing technology, AVL is continuously striving to support customers with their development challenges of today and the future.”

The market-leading testbed monitoring and control system for a variety of propulsion systems
The AVL Opacimeter is a highly dynamic partial-flow measuring instrument for the continuous measurement of exhaust gas opacity (in particular from diesel engines).
The AVL Customer Services organization consists of more than 700 service- and application engineers worldwide, operating from more than 50 locations. Our global footprint is your local benefit.
Battery tester and emulator for research and development, testing and validation.
Partial flow dilution system for regulatory particulate matter (PM) measurement of internal combustion- and H2-ICE engines.
Interconnect all elements of the vehicle development process – independent of tools or suppliers – and gain immediate access to the entire knowledge and skillset of your simulation, testing and methodology departments.
The AVL Smoke Meter is designed to automatically measure soot content in the exhaust gas of combustion engines. The device meets the requirements of ISO 10054 and ISO 8178-3.
Transform your e-mobility analysis with AVL CONCERTO 6™️, featuring fast data access, AI-driven technologies, advanced visualizations and calculations, and auto-generated reports for superior performance and precise insights.
The AVL Particle Counter (APC) product family measures the concentration of solid particles even under severe conditions. The “x” in the name “xApp” refers to the multiple number of extreme applications.
Battery tester and emulator for research and development, testing, and validation purposes.
Efficient testbed utilization is ensured by continuous improvements suggested by our in-house engineers. Our expert teams from Powertrain Engineering and Test System development are working closely together at all times. Effective and efficient development work is ensured by the holistic and seamlessly integrated our product portfolio, in which AVL hybrid and engine test systems play an important role. We support development from initial concept ideas to production. Individual development steps are integrated and connected via consistent development methodology tools.
In addition, our competent test application support is available to all our customers. Engineers guide our customers globally with firsthand expertise in tackling complex development tasks and challenges. The interaction of complex test system configurations can be verified prior to delivery using our advanced in-house system integration test environments (test center) to assure a right-first-time approach. Highly realistic test conditions are applied in combination with AVL simulation models (e.g. engines, dynos, measuring devices, etc.).
AVL’s comprehensive worldwide network of experts allows best customer vicinity, ensuring consistent and connecting testing fields globally. Wherever your R&D challenges take you, we are always close at hand, ready to provide the service you need.
