What Does the Future of Mobility Hold?

Next Generation Mobility

What exactly does ZF do? In one sentence: We are at the forefront of the mobility revolution while shaping the vehicle of the future. We are doing this across all relevant areas: from sustainability, electric mobility, autonomous driving, software and digitalization to Vehicle Motion Control. That’s why at ZF, the focus is on our 160,000 colleagues around the world, who bring another piece of the future to life every day. They are pushing boundaries and breaking through barriers into a brighter future for all

Sustainability

Sustainability is an integral part of the ZF strategy. Our goals include reaching full climate neutrality by 2040, but we also understand sustainability to mean more than climate protection.

Electric Mobility

The future of mobility is electric. That’s why ZF has been working on this for decades. Today, ZF offers nearly all the components needed for electric vehicle powertrains – from the e-motor to the software.

Vehicle Motion Control

Chassis are the basis of mobility on wheels, here are driving dynamics, safety and comfort combined. ZF makes sure that drive, steering and braking inputs are always implemented at the highest level.

Autonomous Driving

From technology and testing to future trends: learn here how ZF shapes automated and autonomous driving for cars, commercial vehicles, shuttles and other vehicles.

Software & Digitalization

Data is fundamental to the mobility of tomorrow. Hardware, software, networks, and connectivity are becoming crucial. ZF develops its own supercomputers and software solutions at the highest level.

Experience Meets Innovation

The future begins where ideas originate and grow. ZF is a company that has reinvented itself again and again over more than 100 years, from the gear factory to deep learning algorithms. At our company, a piece of the future is created every day – imagined, developed, and produced with the passion of our employees around the globe.

Our Vision: Zero Accidents, Zero Emissions

The goal is nothing less than to provide affordable, safe, clean and comfortable mobility for all. That’s why our vision is to reduce the number of traffic accidents and vehicle emissions to zero. To achieve this, we are working on all the relevant aspects and developing technologies not just for passenger cars, but also for wind turbines, commercial vehicles, construction and agricultural machinery, and autonomous shuttles. Because Next Generation Mobility is not just about transportation. It’s about innovation.

These are the ZF #FutureStarters

Our ZF employees are rarely in the spotlight. It’s time to change that, because they are the ones who truly make all the difference. They are the ones enabling innovations that are used in vehicles all over the world. They are the ZF FutureStarters. ZF invites you to meet them – and to discover our technologies through them! Join us on this exciting voyage into transforming the way we move!
