Exterior development

Solutions for new vehicle concepts

Bertrandt develops new body structures for electric vehicles with integration of the battery systems. We supply solutions for front and rear end, underbody applications, or roof systems. Our services encompass validation of functionality, including simulation and testing. As integrator we coordinate the system suppliers and look after interface management.

Electrification as well as automated and autonomous driving are leading to new vehicle concepts.

  • More design options, different performance and diverse crash requirements demand more variable exterior development for front and rear end, or for parts such as bumpers, caps and roof modules.
  • Entire front and rear areas made of plastic parts or large illuminated areas are examples of new options.
  • Camera images replace mirrors, visualizations make vehicle functions more transparent.
