MAHLE Powertrain adds dedicated hydrogen powertrain testing facility
The German company MAHLE Group’s specialized engineering division, MAHLE Powertrain, is adding a dedicated hydrogen powertrain testing facility to its Northampton, England, location.

Furthermore, the center will be perfectly positioned to serve the increasing need for hydrogen powertrain development as well as testing of both light- and heavy-duty applications thanks to updated engine dynamometers with a 900 kW, 4,000 Nm nominal capacity.
