Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems is a young company, held jointly by Bosch and MAHLE at 50 percent each. The company was founded due to the repeated demands of the automotive industry for a strong European partner in the area of turbocharging.

In the future, Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems will be actively involved in the shaping of the trend toward supercharging the combustion engine and reducing its displacement. This trend meets the demands for current and future mobility, at attractive system costs: it reduces fuel consumption and CO2 while guaranteeing driving pleasure. The new products and systems solutions from Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems meet the future requirements for exhaust gas turbochargers. High-quality manufacturing is the basis for consistent quality and superior NVH characteristics.

Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems offers many years of experience in the development and production of highly temperature-resistant turbocharger components, thanks to its parent company MAHLE. Materials for applications at extreme temperatures and in corrosive environments constitute a unique knowledge base. Robert Bosch GmbH completes the systems expertise of Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems with its extensive expertise in the areas of fuel injection technology for gasoline and diesel engines as well as its profound knowledge of engine controls. The parent companies also add extensive knowledge in manufacturing, in the areas of casting and machining. Precision in manufacturing, down to the micrometer range, is part of the expertise for extremely precise rotor and wheel manufacturing, with minimal original out-of-balance values that have been achieved never before. The upcoming generation of turbochargers will profit in a special manner from product experience in pistons, valve train components, and injection systems. The subsidiaries MAHLE Powertrain and Bosch Engineering additionally complement the overall understanding of the combustion engine, with their experience in development, design, and application of turbocharged engines.
