Electrification of the Powertrain

Compelling alternatives to the traditional drivetrain consisting of a combustion engine, transmission and drive axle have emerged: hybrids, electric motors with batteries or fuel cells. The new variety has already made a significant impression on ZF. In addition to new developments of completely electric transmissions for city vehicles used for short range distances, ZF continously optimizes hybrid drive technology. Whether car or commercial vehicle, ZF makes major contributions to resource- and environmentally-conserving transportation. And not only in theory: ZF products for powertrain electrification are economical, practical and ready for production. From the electric machinery through the inverter to the power electronics, everything comes from a single source.
