Car makers, parts and equipment suppliers and new business start-ups will present future-oriented products and solutions from the fields of connectivity, alternative power trains, autonomous cars, mobility services and smart data analytics at Automechanika Frankfurt in September.

The ‘Festhalle’ of Frankfurt Fair and Exhibition Centre will be the hotspot for innovations presenting a show case for ‘Tomorrow’s Service & Mobility’. One of the highlights will be the world’s first fully electric ORTEN E 75 AT, a truck with a lightweight box body that, despite a 100-percent electrical powertrain, has a payload over 30 percent greater than the standard, diesel-powered box-bodied vehicle.

Other future-oriented products and solutions on show will include ZF Friedrichshafen with the Advanced Urban Vehicle, a concept car that demonstrates the potential inherent in intelligently linking individual chassis, drive and driver-assistance systems and the Eucon Aftermarket Intelligence Suite, a fully-integrated analysis tool for spare-parts prices.

Visitors can also look forward to new products from a variety of companies including; Bosch Car Multimedia, Continental / ContiTech, Jaguar & Land Rover, Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket, Brembo and Texa.

For the first time, innovative products from all segments that have been selected for the Automechanika Innovation Award will be on show at a special exhibition in the ‘Festhalle’. The Automechanika Innovation Award is given in eight categories by an independent jury of experts and is a coveted distinction that has been presented at Automechanika Frankfurt since 1996.

Visitors wanting to experience tomorrow’s mobility will also have the opportunity to test drive a variety of electric vehicles on a special track on the adjoining outdoor area.

Automechanika Frankfurt runs from September 13th to 17th.
