Knorr-Bremse impresses with its all-electric steering system in terms of performance, energy efficiency and CO2 savings. The advantage: the system only uses energy when the vehicle is being steered. The company has now won another customer for EPS series production in the Asia-Pacific region. Series production is scheduled to begin in 2028.

With the "power-on-demand" principle, Electric Power Steering (EPS) minimizes the energy and fuel consumption of vehicles, regardless of the drive technology. As an efficiency booster, the system enables energy savings of up to 90 percent compared to conventional steering systems, thus ensuring lower CO₂ emissions and lower operating costs.

Seamless Integration into Existing Vehicle Architectures

"Our EPS is one of the key trailblazers for e-mobility and automated driving in commercial vehicles," says Bernd Spies, Member of the Executive Board of Knorr-Bremse with global responsibility for the Commercial Vehicle Systems division. Spies emphasizes: "The further series order is proof that we are playing a decisive role in shaping the mobility of tomorrow with our innovations. We now have EPS series orders for commercial vehicles and buses in Europe and Asia [...]"

The EPS can be adapted to the respective installation space of the customer and therefore enables smooth integration into existing vehicle architectures without cost-intensive adaptations for the manufacturer. Another advantage: additional cost savings, as the EPS smart safety concept eliminates the need for a redundant power supply. Due to the hydraulic operating principle, the EPS can be used to support multi-steered vehicles based on the existing vehicle architecture in all vehicle classes. At the same time, the EPS meets all regulatory requirements in the markets and thus offers a ready-to-use system solution. (se)
