The main professional and research areas

Building on the traditional research areas of the Department of Automotive Engineering, the research team researches, develops and teaches together with the automotive industry with a strong powertrain focus. In addition to traditional powertrains and fuels, our business focuses on new powertrains and fuels in addition to hybrid and electric vehicles. In our projects, in addition to SMEs with a Hungarian background, we work with international multinational companies. We use our high-quality tools not only in research but also in education.

Key industrial partnerships, most significant projects

The most important industrial partners of the research group are Bosch Group, Knorr Bremse, Audi Hungária Zrt. and MouldTech Kft.
