AVL Establishes New Canadian Entity in Ontario

AVL, the global mobility technology company for development, simulation, and testing, has established a new entity to serve Canada’s emerging battery technology and vehicle electrification sectors.

AVL TSI Canada will operate a new branch office in Mississauga, Ontario. This development signifies a meaningful move in further establishing Canada as an epicentre for battery technology and electric vehicle (EV) research and development.

AVL will provide state-of-the-art testing equipment and software to large OEMs, universities, and research facilities in Canada to advance battery technology and EV manufacturing. The portfolio includes systems that provide customers with advanced capabilities for testing all aspects of vehicle electrification, including batteries, inverters, traction motors, and e-axles.

Corey Miller, Business Director of AVL TSI Canada, says: “AVL’s investment in the Canadian market helps move the industry towards its goal of creating smart, clean, and affordable transportation. These dedicated resources allow us to provide superior service and support as well as enhance responsiveness to suppliers, start-ups and OEMs alike.”

Furthermore, AVL is helping strengthen the pipeline of Canadian talent by investing in North America’s premier automotive engineering university competition programs EcoCAR EV Challenge and The Battery Workforce Challenge. AVL provides participants with simulation tools, testing, and engineering support for the development of low-emission and electric vehicles. Hands-on experience with industry-leading tools equips students to excel in the EV industry and helps retain local talent.
