Functional and lightweight body components for modern electric vehicles
Body shop for electric vehicles presents a special challenge and at the same time an opportunity for innovation in the automotive industry. Electric-powered cars differ in many ways from vehicles with internal combustion engines. These differences result in completely new and complex tasks for the body shop.
One of the essential components is the battery pack, which has a significant mass and places special demands on placement and protection. For this reason, GEDIA designs the bodies of electric vehicles so that they can safely accommodate the battery pack and protect it from external influences. This requires careful integration into the vehicle structure and the use of high-strength materials for battery protection.
Body engineering for electric vehicles requires a holistic approach that takes into account the specific requirements of electric vehicles while promoting innovation and efficiency. With the continuous advancement of technologies and materials in body engineering for electric vehicles, GEDIA plays a key role in shaping the future of transportation.
Less energy consumption with sophisticated aerodynamics
Electric vehicles benefit from improved aerodynamics to maximize range. The body must be designed to minimize drag while also enabling an appealing design. Together with automotive manufacturers, GEDIA develops wind-channelling body shapes, components and other aerodynamic elements that optimize airflow around the vehicle.
Lightweight construction saves electricity
As with vehicles with combustion engines, weight and material selection play an important role in the body construction of electric vehicles. GEDIA contributes to the reduction of the overall vehicle weight and thus to an increased range with lightweight concepts and the use of aluminum, high-strength steels and other lightweight materials.
