Our testbeds have been at the forefront of electromobility and the automotive industry for over seven decades. Our state-of-the-art dynamometers set industry standards with power ranges from 10 kW to 140,000 kW. This extensive range has revolutionised the development of propulsion systems, serving applications from small off-road engines to large two-stroke marine engines.
Today, we continue to lead the field in e-mobility, pushing the boundaries of technology and actively shaping the future of sustainable transport. Our dynamometers are integral to the testing and optimisation of electrified powertrains and their key components. They are a vital link between our proven expertise and a sustainable electrified future.
Designed for research, development, calibration and certification, our dynamometers demonstrate our commitment to driving innovation in electromobility while embracing a wide range of powertrain technologies across all mobility sectors.

The quintessence of more than 75 years of design and test experience in a single product line. With AVL SPECTRA™, we offer you a product line that covers every conceivable application in automotive testing and is always at the cutting edge of technology. The heart of our Signature Line, the AVL SPECTRA™ SmartStack, is a technological masterpiece. With full SiC MosFET technology for fast switching up to 100 kHz and six parallel half bridges for flexible applications, it is the foundation for future-proof solutions.
