Shaping the future of mobility
Between EV OEMs and traditional OEMs, the automotive industry is moving at different speeds, so the switch to 48V may come in the form of incremental upgrades. But its impact will be far-reaching. By enabling zonal electrical design, reducing wiring mass, and supporting higher electrical loads, 48V systems help bridge the gap between legacy platforms and fully software-defined, electrified architectures while enabling full transfor - mation. Supporting this shift, standardized low-voltage con- nectivity brings simplicity to an increasingly complex electrical landscape. Fewer interfaces, safer connector designs, and automation-ready features allow manu- facturers to balance increasing performance and safety
with manufacturing efficiency as we accelerate towards the next generation of mobility. 48V systems allow engineers to rethink the relation - ship between power, weight and vehicle complexity, and open the door to advanced features that would otherwise be impossible. Standardized connectors simplify the assembly process, lower the risk of errors, and support both human and robotic production. Most importantly, they lay the foundation for a future where vehicles are more efficient, more capable, and more sustainable.
