The division Powertrain is the world market leader in fuel supply systems, engine actuators, passive and pressure sensors, transmission and drivetrain control. We are number two in the diesel and gasoline injection systems market.

The Powertrain division brings together innovative and efficient system solutions affecting every aspect of a vehicle’s drivetrain. In line with the motto “Experience passion-driven mobility,” this division has set itself the goal of making vehicle powertrain systems even more economical and environmentally friendly without compromising the pleasure of driving. With its innovative products, the division is very well placed to work towards the vision of zero-emission mobility. For example, high-precision and high-performance piezo injection has set new standards for diesel and gasoline engines in terms of fuel consumption and emissions. Hybrid drive systems take the trend toward greater efficiency one step further.

The division is divided into eight business units and has 68 locations in 21 countries:

• Gasoline Systems
• Diesel Systems
• Electronics
• Transmission
• Sensors
• Actuators, Motor Drives & Fuel Supply
• Hybrid Electric Vehicle
• Turbocharger

As Siemens VDO was only included for the first time for one month in fiscal 2007, we do not yet have any meaningful sales volume figures for the new Powertrain division.
