As energy storage systems for electric vehicles, traction batteries are increasingly attracting attention. They’re a challenge and key technology for climate-friendly mobility. A look at the current state of development and at technological prospects

How Schaeffler is increasing the range of electric vehicles.

While the chassis used to be the backbone of an automobile, software will assume that role in the future. Maria Anhalt, CEO of automotive software specialist Elektrobit, shares informative insights.

Schaeffler and VDL plan to jointly develop and produce a new generation of self-driving electric shuttles for public transport.

Schaeffler’s Automotive CEO Matthias Zink assesses ten propositions about mobility of tomorrow.

The car industry is constantly looking for new materials. Lighter, more heat-resistant, more resilient, more natural – or just something unique. We describe what aspects of automotive interiors and exteriors are subject to current research.

Schaeffler is demonstrating its development capabilities in the field of hydrogen-powered mobility with a new generation of metallic bipolar plates for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells.

Be it in the wind tunnel or for crash testing – vehicle development repeatedly involves the deployment of physical prototype models. That’s a lengthy and costly process now being increasingly substituted by engineers working with digital twins.
