Hybrid and Fuel Cells

Innovation is only as good as a company’s ability to harness and direct it into practical, production-feasible solutions.  At FEV, we specialize in bringing innovation to the street.  

The automotive industry is changing rapidly as a result of rising fuel prices, market globalization and global concerns about emissions.  Many technologies are being considered as we address how we should respond to these challenges. However, vehicles that are propelled by hybrid powertrain systems and fuels cells are two technologies that have received significant consideration

FEV is at the forefront in both of these sectors.  Highly qualified teams of FEV and customer engineers are working together today to develop solutions that can be implemented as new products in the coming years.  Recent examples include both mild hybrid and diesel hybrid vehicles that successfully demonstrate these technologies in the form of concepts that could be productionized.  FEV has also demonstrated fuel cell powered technology demonstrators, including the VW HY-Power vehicle.

By founding highly capable technical centers on three continents, FEV has demonstrated its commitment to its customers and their markets.  We place the engineering capability and tools in our customers markets with the intent of providing what our customers need most:  innovative, high quality engineering services that provide true value and positively support customer goals.
