Garrett Motion Showcases Electric Turbocharger for first time at IAA 2019

• On display for the first time will be Garrett’s “E-Turbo” for mass market passenger vehicles, expected to launch in 2021
• Garrett will display additional turbo technologies for gasoline, diesel, electric and hybrid, as well as software applications for connected vehicles

E-Turbo’s in gasoline engines can result in up to a 15 percent reduction in CO₂.

Boosting powertrains to meet a changing heavy-duty emissions landscape

Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Particulate Matter (PM) reduction have historically been the focus for heavy-duty truck OEMs, but the next round of emissions regulations will place much greater emphasis on CO₂.

As a result, commercial vehicle manufacturers around the world are turning to Garrett to develop the innovative engine boosting systems that will help create the low carbon powertrains of the future.

From low emission to zero emission: Garrett vows to contribute to low carbon transport in China

China’s role as the host country for the recent World Environment Day sends a clear message to the automotive industry that the world’s largest market is focused on more than just sales. Electrification is coming to the industry and it is a game changer. Nowhere is that more apparent than in China where government policies and new business ventures have created a dynamic environment for bringing new technologies to market.

Taking Control of Vehicle Complexity

New Boost Architecture Integrates with ECU to Optimize E-Turbo Performance: Garrett has unveiled new boost control architecture that can significantly enhance turbo performance and health and help unlock optimized energy management.  

The company’s unique expertise in advanced controls and automotive engineering, resulting from decades of OEM engagement, is driving its controls solutions – that can contribute to physical automotive systems working in a safer and more optimal way.

Garrett Develops Ultra Responsive Boosting System to Support Next Wave of Global CO2 Emission Targets

Garrett has created a new boosting system with greatly improved transient response as part of an international team of industry and research organizations participating in the Particle Reduced, Efficient Gasoline Engine (PaREGEn) project – part of the EU Horizon 2020 Programme –developed to pioneer a new generation of low CO2 emitting gasoline engines for mid-level to premium vehicles.

Understanding the Difference Between Electrified and Electric

Garrett engineers and executives have been making the rounds in recent months to help explain why “electrified” and “electric” are two very different propositions for auto makers, regulators and consumers all around the world.

“Electrification” has become a great, big, giant buzzword in the automotive industry as the global pursuit of cleaner more efficient energy imprints itself upon the vehicles of tomorrow.
