First choice for the
mobility of the future:
Bosch at the IAA 2017

Connectivity is the key to tomorrow’s mobility. At Bosch, connected driving is already a reality: 1.5 million vehicles are already connected via the Bosch IoT Suite. Bosch also has unique expertise in the automotive sector in the key fields for the Internet of Things: sensors, software, and services.

Another reason why Bosch is increasingly becoming a provider of mobile services. These include services for shared mobility, access to your smart home from your car, and complete technology and service packages for smart cities.

Automated driving is coming faster than you think – also in urban areas. Bosch is working with 3,000 developers on making this a reality together with its partners: driverless car-sharing fleets in inner-city traffic, early in the next decade, are taking shape as Bosch brings the computing power of the IT world onto the roads.

The intelligence in cars of the future will be generated by a few host computers whose computing power by 2020 will be around 200 times that of today’s control units. These developments aim at achieving Bosch’s primary goal of making traffic on the road as accident-free as possible.

Bosch translates powertrain electrification into market success. Worldwide, more than half a million vehicles featuring electric powertrain components from Bosch are already on the roads. Moreover, we are currently seeing a trend towards small, light electric vehicles that reduce emissions and congestion especially in urban areas, without compromising on the fun factor. Bosch has developed a powertrain system that makes it possible to bring new vehicles to market with very short lead times.

Bosch also provides solutions that make electromobility affordable in larger cars. Especially when combined with electric components, combustion engines can deliver more efficient mobility over longer distances. That’s why Bosch is working systematically to further develop gasoline and diesel powertrains.
