As OEMs strive to meet safety, multi-functionality, cost and fuel efficiency goals, they have pressed ahead with the electrification of a large number of formerly mechanically and hydraulically powered components. In the chassis, features such as regenerative braking and ESP (electronic skid prevention) can significantly improve fuel efficiency and the carbon footprint of a vehicle.
With all of the new regulations – including New Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) standards and the recently passed Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 2010 – automotive manufacturers must address their chassis design while ensuring the safety and performance expected by customers. Moreover, replacing conventionally heavy and complex mechanical steering columns with light weight electronics and materials will have significant impact on the driving dynamics and overall chassis system.
The Chassis Electrification Conference will address new and innovative chassis technology including braking, steering, suspension systems, cover topics related to the restraints and drivers for chassis electrification and also review how to best utilize this new technology while ensuring the up- most customer safety and satisfaction.
