Aumovio BMW Group Brake Technology Partnership Exceeds EUR 1 Billion

Aumovio and BMW Group Expand Brake Technology Collaboration

Aumovio BMW Group Brake Technology Partnership has strengthened the long-term cooperation between Aumovio SE and BMW Group in electronics and brake technologies. The companies have entered into a supply and development agreement covering series projects for integrated brake systems, brake calipers, and additional electronic control solutions for future vehicle platforms. The planned order volume from this collaboration exceeds EUR 1 billion, highlighting the growing importance of advanced braking technologies in next-generation passenger vehicles.

The agreement includes expanded series deliveries of Aumovio’s MK C2 integrated brake system through the mid-2030s. The MK C2 combines the master cylinder, brake booster, and control functions, including the anti-lock braking system and electronic stability control, within a compact and lightweight module. The integrated design supports modern vehicle platform requirements by improving functionality, availability, and packaging efficiency while enabling advanced braking capabilities for future mobility solutions.

MK C2 System Supports Future Vehicle Platforms

The MK C2 integrated brake system represents a key technology area within the collaboration between Aumovio and BMW Group. By combining multiple braking functions into a single module, the system helps optimize vehicle architecture and supports evolving requirements for safety, efficiency, and electronic integration. The agreement reflects continued industry movement toward highly integrated vehicle components designed for future passenger car platforms and advanced electronic control systems.

In addition to future supply agreements, Aumovio and BMW Group have mutually agreed to settle all pending legal proceedings related to an integrated brake system produced by Aumovio, formerly Continental’s Automotive group sector, for BMW Group. As part of the settlement, Aumovio will make payments totaling EUR 350 million. The resolution allows both companies to continue their cooperation while focusing on upcoming technology and supply initiatives.

The partnership between the two companies demonstrates the increasing focus on advanced brake technologies and electronic systems within the global automotive industry. With production programs extending into the mid-2030s, the collaboration is expected to support future vehicle platforms developed for Germany and international markets. The agreement also reinforces the role of integrated braking solutions in improving vehicle safety, performance, and system efficiency.
