Vehicle Integration
GKN has built a market-leading position from over 25 years of vehicle integration experience.
Passive systems, central to our integration expertise, have now been augmented with
capabilities in sophisticated active systems, systems where it is a combination of hardware
and software that deliver the dynamic performance required.

Prototyping
Full range of Rig Test and Vehicle Integration capabilities in all major regions (Europe,
Americas, Asia Pacific)
In-house Wintertest facilities
Strong multidisciplinary, global teams, manage complex system architectures and realise
optimisation opportunities
Complete mechatronic expertise to develop controls for all systems. (AWD, eLSD, eDrive,
Hydraulics, Electromechanics, …)
Software, ECU and system control strategy development
The control strategies for driveline systems are now actively
improving the driving experience of a vehicle. Electronic Control
Units (ECU) are the computing platforms for our control software.
We can provide dedicated ECUs integrate our control software
into 3rd party ECUs. Unmatched experience in both approaches
and state-of-the-art tools and techniques for development and
Example for Disconnect ECU
