Over many years AVL has become well established in the development and design of E-Motors for multiple applications. Traction motors, starter-generators, electric power steering, electromagnetic valve trains, actuators – AVL is the right partner to deliver the best solution. We have broadened our capabilities especially for the domain of vehicle electrification. AVL Trimerics is a specialized team that develops tailor-made e-machines beyond standard solutions. With this approach we are able...

AVL is a pioneer of electrification techniques for vehicle powertrains and is familiar with all actual and promising future technologies. One of the major design tasks of the AVL design team is to find and elaborate a powertrain concept that best meets the dedicated customer vehicle concept, as well as the profile of the potential user. AVL uses most modern simulation and design techniques for early concept evaluation and verification, taking into account all the relevant aspects for an...

Electric vehicles are no longer a trend but an established fact. In order to make the correct decision on which technological approach – BEV (battery electric vehicle) or REEV (range extended electric vehicle) - best meets the requirements of the market, the manufacturers specific boundary conditions and economic aspects have to be balanced with a multidisciplinary approach. For the design engineers at AVL this challenge is well known. To find the solution that meets best the required...

Hybrid powertrain applications combine the best of two worlds – with the right emphasis between combustion engine and e-motor (micro, mild or full hybrid) the achievement of stringent emission legislation and fuel consumption targets is possible. Within this context the optimal solution for a specific application does not only depend on targets for emissions, performance, efficiency, reliability and comfort, but also on its costs and its manufacturability. AVL's engineering approach takes...

Hybrid vehicles add much complexity to powertrain and vehicle development. From an NVH point of view especially the sound consistency in the vehicle interior and the transition between different propulsion systems is of high interest. Additionally legislative regulations for minimum exterior noise have to be considered in hybrid vehicle developments.

Meeting the requirements of emission legislation is becoming more and more difficult due to ever tightening limits (e.g. Euro 6, SULEV, etc.) and the very strong requirement to reduce fuel consumption (e.g. Europe 95 g/km, CAFE, China Stage 4, etc.). High costs due to penalties or recalls may also arise if the emission limits are exceeded in the field. Robust emission calibration is necessary to meet the emission limits for mass production. All possible conditions like an aged exhaust...

Give your customer the best reasons to buy your product: high efficiency, reliability, driveability, low fuel consumption and conformity with the newest emission standards - and select the best partner to realize it as effective as possible. AVL's team of experienced design engineers is familiar with the special tasks of commercial vehicles of all sizes – and how to solve them. We will help you find the optimal design with a balance between increasing powertrain complexity and the life cycle...

A competitive economic environment and increasingly stringent emission regulations are the main drivers for optimizing the efficiency of large engines in marine, power generation, construction and other areas. Fuel efficiency, initial cost, reliability and service/maintenance life cycle cost are key considerations for the creation of optimum engine performance perfectly tuned to the customer's needs. The newest technologies for aftertreatment, waste heat recovery, auxiliary drives and...

AVL has many years of experience in commercial vehicle calibration and has developed a unique tool for efficient calibration process: Mobeo. This tool allows you to cut development time and cost with secured or increased dataset quality.
