BMW and supplier Aumovio are deepening their partnership. The focus is on series projects for brake technologies and electronic solutions. These include the integrated braking system MK C2 as well as components and systems like brake calipers and electronic control solutions for future vehicle platforms. The planned order volume exceeds one billion euros.

For the supplier Aumovio, which emerged as a spin-off from the former Continental Automotive division in September 2025, expanding the partnership with the automaker is a step in the right direction, as Philipp von Hirschheydt, the company's CEO, emphasizes: "The agreement with the BMW Group is an important step for us to strengthen our business relationships. It demonstrates trust in our innovative brake technology and, at the same time, motivates us to drive forward the collaborative partnership between our companies and shape the future of mobility together."

On the Way to Highly Automated Driving

For the MK C2, the companies have agreed to extend series deliveries until the mid-2030s. The one-box brake system, which has been in series production since 2022, integrates the master cylinder, brake booster, and control systems such as ABS and ESC into a single module. The MK C2 is based on the Multi-Logic architecture, which enhances the system's functionality and availability.

The MK C2 is an integrated braking system of the second generation. It combines the master cylinder, brake booster, and control systems such as ABS and ESC in a module weighing around 5 kg.(Image: Aumovio) — The MK C2 is an integrated braking system of the second generation.

The system makes a significant contribution to safe, dynamic, and environmentally conscious driving with 100 percent regenerative braking. By combining the MK C2 with a Hydraulic Brake Extension (HBE), it features a redundant fallback level for highly automated driving. Additionally, it stands out with cybersecurity functions and over-the-air functionality, which can be easily installed in the vehicle. In terms of benefits for the driver, the system offers a significantly faster buildup of autonomous braking pressure compared to hydraulic systems, resulting in shorter braking distances.

Fit for the Future

Aumovio considers itself well-positioned for safe, connected, and autonomous mobility. The company offers sensor solutions, displays, brake and comfort systems, as well as expertise in software, architecture platforms, and assistance systems for software-defined vehicles. In the 2025 fiscal year, it achieved a revenue of 18.5 billion euros (approx. 21.3 billion USD). Around 82,000 employees work for the company at over 80 locations worldwide. (se)
