The new DEKRA Battery Test Center: millions of euros invested
DEKRA operates a large number of highly specialized testing laboratories that specialize in automotive testing scenarios. With this network, DEKRA supports its customers worldwide in the most important target regions and invests significantly in expanding its service portfolio around future automotive trends, such as V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communication, charging stations, driver assistance systems (ADAS), and open road services.
