Anticipating Customer’s Needs
About DENSO
Beyond Powertrain
Have to Look at Entire Vehicle• Aerodynamics • Mass
Beyond Powertrain
Alternative Fuels• Diesel • Ethanol• Hydrogen• Bio-fuels
Beyond Powertrain
● Climate Control Products Automatic air conditioner, car heater,
rear cooling unit, compressor,
sensors, etc.
● Body Electronics Products Instrument cluster, windshield wiper
remote keyless entry system,
IC flasher, horn, etc.
● Powertrain Related Products Engine management system,
electronically-controlled diesel system,
starter, alternator, radiator, etc.
● Driving Control and Safety Cruise control system, airbag sensing system,
vehicle stability control, antilock braking system,
traction control system, etc.
Overall Systems Approach
How do all the pieces fit together?
• Collaboration is key• Technology tradeoffs• Weighing cost-benefits• Best systems
Beyond Powertrain
Long-term Powertrain Advancements
How do we achieve more than 50 mpg?
Electrification• Plug-in hybrids• Extended range vehicles• Advanced hybrids• Battery electric vehicles
Long-term: Electrification
How Will We Get There?

Cost-value • Goal to reduce size and cost by 40 – 60 percent using our
experience in thermal management, power electronic design
and manufacturing.
Complex Component Integration• Marry or bundle technologies into a single package or box.
Mid-term: Start/Stop Technology
35.5+ MPG 2016 and Beyond
Start/Stop Technology• Technical capability• Market acceptance
Mid-term Start/Stop Technology
System 1:• Advanced Engagement (AE)
Starter• Not “change of mind” capable
as engine needs to be at zero rpm before restart
• 3% to 5% fuel savings• Existing proven technology• Simple integration
