ABOUT HORSE POWERTRAIN

Built for the new powertrain reality

The automotive industry is no longer on a single path from combustion engines to battery electric vehicles.

Different technologies need to coexist across vehicles and markets, creating greater development, investment and capacity challenges for automakers. 

Horse Powertrain was created for this reality. 

We bring together powertrain technology, R&D, engineering and manufacturing at global scale – helping automakers respond to changing requirements without having to develop and industrialize every solution themselves.

Revolutionizing motion for all

Our vision is to revolutionize motion for all. 

Different markets need different answers. Vehicle type, infrastructure, regulation, affordability and customer expectations vary around the world, and different technologies will play different roles in reducing the carbon footprint of the industry. 

That’s why our approach recognizes many paths to net zero. Our broad portfolio of powertrain technologies allows us to support a wide range of vehicle and market requirements – today and in the future. 

Explore our vision

Powertrain is our focus

Our capabilities span R&D, hardware and software engineering, system integration, testing and validation, manufacturing and industrialization. 

We own and develop our own powertrain technology and intellectual property, giving automakers access to solutions that can be adapted to their requirements. 

This gives automakers access to end-to-end capabilities without having to replicate every technology, engineering or manufacturing capability in-house.
