Powertrain systems and electrified mobility

Powertrain systems and electrified mobility - Bosch is energizing the powertrain

More and more people are demanding individual mobility to reach destinations that are ever farther away as easily, quickly, affordably, and sustainably as possible. At the same time, freight traffic is following the same upward trend. But how is it possible to reconcile this increase in traffic with future emissions targets? For Bosch, one possible answer to this question is a mixture of various energy-efficient powertrain solutions. That is why we are continuing to promote optimized internal-combustion engines alongside electric drive systems and also why we are committed to using renewable synthetic fuels: for safe, sustainable, and inspiring mobility.

The rising demand for mobility is a growing challenge

Increasing demand for mobility

The powertrain mix: diverse technologies for diverse requirements

From greenhouse gas to raw material: renewable synthetic fuels

renewable synthetic fuels

Synthetic fuels bind CO₂ during their production. The greenhouse gas therefore becomes a raw material and can then be used to produce gasoline, diesel, or natural gas.

Synthetic fuels generated from renewable energy sources ensure carbon-neutral combustion. This is not only true for new vehicles, but also for the 1.3 billion or so vehicles that already exist. Read more
