Dusseldorf, Stuttgart The German automotive suppliers could always rely on one thing: the technological leadership of their most important customers. From the ABS anti-lock braking system to electronic engine management – ​​BMW, Mercedes and the VW Group have always been the first in the industry. But that’s apparently over.

“Chinese car manufacturers are extremely tech-savvy, despite their high development speed, and use new technologies earlier than others,” ZF board member Stephan von Schuckmann told Handelsblatt. What many in the industry see as a threat is an opportunity for the ZF manager. “We are already industrializing a large number of our new developments, first in China and only then in Europe.”

The Chinese carmaker Nio was the launch customer for the electronic steering (“steer-by-wire”). ZF installs its 800-volt power electronics for fast charging in top models from Chinese carmakers.
