Semcon strengthens positions in engines and transmissions with orders
worth EUR 8,7 million

Semcon is continuing to expand in the fields of engines and
transmissions with another order from a German automotive manufacturer.
The project will start immediately and run until 2012, with an option to
extend.

The project involves optimizing engines for various car models and will
be mainly carried out by Semcon's Swedish organization and its partners
in Sweden.

“Future demands to cut CO2 emissions means that all auto manufacturers
are focusing on development in this area. This order will strengthen our
position in one of our focus areas,” says Stefan Ohlsson, business area
manager Automotive R&D.

Semcon has built up a lot of expertise in engines and transmission and
has now almost 400 people around the world committed to this sector.
Semcon has also received orders earlier during the year, from another
German auto manufacturer worth around SEK 55 million. These projects
will run for three years and involve developing cooling circuits for the
auto manufacturers' various engine alternatives on a new global platform
and will be carried out by the German organization.
