TÜV SÜD Automotive: Connecting people, technology and environment

TÜV SÜD Automotive GmbH bundles know-how for the automotive industry. 430 engineers and other specialists provide a wide spectrum of services around the world, including testing, consulting, training
and international compliance management.

Our Engine and Drive Train Test Center in Munich is driving development in advanced technologies such as fuel cells and hydrogen technology. To meet safety criteria, vehicle electronics systems must be failure-tolerant despite their growing complexity. This is one of the topics engaging the attention of TÜV SÜD Automotive electronics specialists. Crash Tests using ECV (Electronically Controlled Vehicle) systems on our own test tracks provide detailed data on the passive safety of cars, buses and trucks. Cars are powered by their own engines as they are guided precisely towards the obstacle. Patented technology for early warning of tire damage is another TÜV contribution to vehicle safety.
