AVL is the world's largest privately owned company for development of powertrains (combustion engines, hybrid systems, electric drive) as well as simulation and test systems for passenger cars, trucks and marine engines.

Powertrain Engineering Division activities embrace all functions from concept definition through to production development. Supported by comprehensive in-house research, AVL’s engineering specialists design and develop engines for both stationary and mobile applications, transmissions and complete powertrain systems, including electric propulsion options, which set new benchmarks worldwide.

With wide-ranging production engineering experience, including the planning of engine and transmission manufacturing facilities, plus cutting-edge application and reliability engineering capabilities, AVL is fully equipped to provide its customers with mature solutions ready for series production.

AVL provides its customers with instrumentation technology and test systems for the entire product development process right up to mass production. AVL’s product range covers all test requirements for engines, drivetrains and vehicles.
AVL is a manufacturer and system integrator of complete testbed systems, delivering technologically superior tools for specific tasks, which can be individually adapted to the needs of different groups of users. The intelligent, modular organization of the product range ensures optimum flexibility, from professional single-user applications to fully integrated systems designed to maximize productivity.

In its role as General Contractor, AVL assumes responsibility for testbeds, technology and buildings, including consultancy, technology development and planning, global procurement, installation, commissioning and project management.
All AVL’s software and methodology development capabilities for engine and powertrain simulation are concentrated in its ‘software house’, Advanced Simulation Technologies. The AVL-designed software tools represent state-of-the-art technology based on long experience in engine and drivetrain development. These tools are not only used in-house, but also by leading engine and vehicle manufacturers worldwide.

Complementary skills and close interdisciplinary cooperation between its divisions are the key to AVL’s unique problem-solving potential. This is exemplified, for instance, by the joint development of unique methodologies and software tools.
