The big picture of the entire vehicle

Our reaction to the ever increasing complexity and interdependency of systems is an intensive interaction of all our departments. Together, our highly motivated engineers and experts find innovative, efficient and scientifically verified answers to your questions. Furthermore, our close cooperation with university research institutes and our unique simulation and testing infrastructure are your benefit.

Customized hybridization or electrification

Our unique simulation environment helps us adjusting concepts and functions to meet the precise requirements of the vehicle platform und use-case in question. Within this environment, all components can be programmed and parameterized individually. At the same time, we can plan and evaluate the dynamic behavior of energy management systems or operational strategies.

We specify the gear box and electric machines according to the planned parameter and optimize the entire system with the help of our criteria catalogue and individual weightings. Thus, we generate an optimized system for your individual question.

On this basis we then develop innovative efficiency strategies and adjusted battery charging schemes by combining the cross-linked drive system with driver assistance sensors and V2X technologies.
