Setting new standards

Out of love for details

Our gearshifts have been one of the most frequently used interfaces between driver and vehicle for years. In order to integrate seamlessly into the interior design of the car, our gearshift levers, rocker switches, rotary switches and push-button gearshifts provide a high-quality shifting experience. It goes without saying that the gearshift responds quickly when changing gear. And functions such as the automatic repositioning of the gearshift ensure maximum driving comfort.
 

The facts:

When driver and vehicle become one

For an extraordinary shifting feel

Whether sporty 6-speed automatic transmission, classic manual transmission or innovative shift-by-wire gearshift: in the end, it is the connection between driver and vehicle that makes a manual transmission something special. It doesn't matter whether the gear is shifted using a lever, paddles, a push button or a rotary knob. If the gearshift responds quickly and is easy to operate, this ensures a special driving experience.

Our gearshift solutions meet the highest requirements - both those of the driver and those of the car manufacturer, who can easily integrate them into their interior concept.

The functionality

Innovative shifting system

Our shifting systems are also modular in design and can therefore be used flexibly in almost any vehicle series, regardless of which manual transmission is used.

OEMs can decide whether the driver's request should be transmitted to the transmission manually via shift and selector cables, or completely electronically as a shift-by-wire variant.

Patented solution

Know what the driver wants

The patented contactless sensor concept for automatic gearshifts is a particular highlight of our gearshift solutions. It seamlessly records the selector lever position even during movement, can determine the shifting speed and thus deduce the driver's wishes.

The individual teach-in of each shift lever position compensates for component tolerances and combines excellent measuring accuracy with high system robustness.
