AVL is the world's largest independent company for the development of powertrain systems with internal combustion engines as well as instrumentation and test systems.

AVL is active in the following areas of business:

Powertrain Engineering
AVL Powertrain Engineering is an expert partner to the global automotive and mobility industry for the development of innovative powertrain systems. From diesel engines to electric drives, from alternative fuels to control software, from transmissions to batteries, we have been working in partnership with companies all over the world for more than 60 years.

Instrumentation and Test Systems
The need for CO2 reduction, the increasing complexity of new powertrain systems, and a requirement to achieve the highest possible level of process efficiency - along with the need to quickly launch new models - are some of the key challenges facing the automotive industry now and for the foreseeable future.

Simulation
Powerful multi-dimensional simulation platforms developed on the basis of AVL's engineering knowledge guide you to practical, application oriented solutions. Fully validated state-of-the-art physical simulation models embedded in application specific simulation methods enable virtual prototyping on component and system level for most efficient combination of simulation, design and testing.
