Process – Knowledge – Tools

Smart Calibration™ is the integration of all calibration products and services into a portfolio of offerings that enables customers to:

  • outsource calibration work for lead and derivative vehicles
  • optimize their calibration development process.
  • target optimization for driveability/fuel economy attributes
  • reduce proportion of prototype testing
  • improve time-to-market


Smart Calibration™ can be applied from small discrete projects to full turn-key applications for SOP.

Approach for Calibration Projects to SOP and Beyond

AVL’s unique calibration portfolio covers engineering, electronics & software development, calibration and testing. The portfolio includes SOP-proven tools and a network of global Technical Centers. All capabilities are bundled in highly skilled calibration teams with international experience. This enables AVL to manage calibration projects of ever increasing complexity and to deliver sound, robust and traceable SOP calibration solutions.

Global Skills

By combining skills and know-how from engine, transmission and hybrid teams in a global network, AVL Smart CalibrationTM delivers a system-optimized powertrain system calibration.

Powertrain Control Unit Independence

AVL provides assistance in decoupling the software from the powertrain control unit hardware and provides calibrations that are valid for more than one control unit. AVL has successfully completed gasoline, diesel and hybrid calibration programs utilizing electronic control units from most major manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers.
