NVH and driver comfort are now more critical than ever. As entire drivetrains become quieter, driver expectations for noise performance continue to evolve. This shift brings new challenges, including the emergence of more noticeable and potentially irritating electrical sound characteristics. Additionally, external factors such as wind and rolling noise are becoming increasingly perceptible to drivers. AVL enables its customers with a large portfolio of NVH simulation tools, NVH engineering, and NVH testing systems.
All aspects regarding NVH are crucial in today's mobility technologies because they directly impact the comfort, safety, and overall user experience. From passenger cars, to heavy-duty vehicles and beyond, the aim should always be a quite and efficient operation.”

Engineering Solutions
AVL accelerates your development process – and saves you time and money. Our holistic, functional approach is a major factor in swift development. It reconciles all the vehicle system requirements at an early stage, which enables us to bring forward the Start of Production (SOP) significantly.
Simulation Solutions
We are your global partner in realizing the mobility of the future. A mobility characterized by its minimal impact on the environment. We offer you simulation solutions ranging from component to system analysis. As we are deeply integrated in the development process, our software solutions – tools and projects – enable you to master the challenges of virtualization.
Testing Solutions
Our testbed solutions are optimized regarding the sound attenuation of the noise generating parts and the sound reflection from the structure of the test system. This guarantees that the point of interest, the unit under test, is the focus of each single acoustic measurement. Moreover, we understand and commit to the strict and hard acoustic standards and aim to guarantee the commonly agreed NVH targets for each test system. All components are aligned, and the system is validated through an acceptance analysis to prove its performance.
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.
