This new access experience is made possible by our ability to seamlessly blend our vehicle access and interior expertise. Our portfolio comprises all of the necessary components from power opening latches and side door drives to collision and anti-trap protection sensors.

Brose brings its experience as a long-standing market leader for power liftgate systems to the development process.

A newly developed Brose rail system allows interior elements to move independently of one another. If desired, the back seat can rearrange to form two individual seats with power adjuster features that allow passengers to fully recline for ultimate relaxation – or the interior can flexibly adapt to offer maximum cargo space. This happens quietly and quickly thanks to our drives.

Integrated cargo modules in the seat rail make it possible to use the entire vehicle as a cargo space. Charging boxes, even pets can be secured by them, e-scooters can be connected to the modules. The modules feature a data and power interface that enables the use of additional services such as battery charging.

The product works with common operational voltages from 48 to 810 volts and runs with both chemical and natural refrigerants. This enables ultra-fast charging and makes it possible to use the compressor as a heat pump.

Brose also develops compact thermal modules that integrate other components such as heat exchangers alongside the compressor for even greater efficiency advantages. The systems generate heat and cold in a closed circuit and control how they are distributed throughout the vehicle based on specific requirements.Optionally, the system is available with a hermetically sealed refrigerant circuit. The circuit is prefilled by Brose and operates maintenance-free.

The same applies to seats that move and fold automatically. It is important that passengers are not injured and the interior of the vehicle is not damaged in the process. Brose has developed powerful radar sensors for this purpose. Their precise and reliable functionality makes many new comfort features possible in the first place.

But the sensors offer a number of additional functions: from parking assist and anti-theft protection to interior monitoring that can identify and distinguish between small children and pets.

The Brose portfolio includes drives for any number of applications from city bikes to mountain bikes along with displays and battery packs. Digital services and the systematic approach are becoming increasingly important in the development of e-bike systems as electrically powered bicycles become more connected. Software-based service tools which dealers and bike shops use for troubleshooting and maintenance are essential elements of our system portfolio. This also includes an app that lets cyclists customize assistance levels and record their routes.

The Brose drive with integrated power electronics is more efficient than other concepts. As a result, it offers up to 20percent more range. At the same time, the compact design and low weight ensure agile handling.We are expanding our portfolio to include drives for many different performance classes, software solutions for battery management and conversion kits for conventional two wheelers.
