When it comes to electromobility, Germany-based Bosch (
www.bosch.com) is in pole position.
Since the start of 2018, the company has won orders worth around 13 billion euros, including production projects for electric powertrains for passenger cars and light trucks.
Thanks to these orders and its innovative mind-set, Bosch is holding its own in a difficult environment.
The company is approaching the mobility of the future with an open mind. It is refining conventional powertrains and fast-tracking electrification.
Bosch is also working to make mobility automated, connected and personalised. The keys to this include electronics and software.
The company’s mobility operations currently employ around 14,000 software engineers, and its annual expenditure on software expertise amounts to 3 billion euros.
The objective is to keep people mobile in an eco-friendly way and to ensure that mobility is accessible to everyone.
Bosch is also leading the way in climate action; this includes making all its locations world-wide carbon-neutral from 2020.
Each year, the company invests some 400 million euros in emissions-free mobility, and when it comes to electromobility, Bosch has a broader footprint than other companies — from bikes to trucks, and from mild 48V hybridisation to the fully electric powertrain.
The company is aiming to achieve a leading position in the market with its 48V battery, and it has concluded a long-term co-operation agreement with the Chinese company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co Ltd for the production of battery cells.
At the start of the year, Bosch forecast a sales total of 5 billion euros by 2025 for its electromobility components and systems for passenger cars and light trucks.
It now expects to exceed that figure. When it comes to electromobility, Germany-based Bosch is in pole position.
