Product Manager Half shafts - AWD and Driveline

The importance of Transmission department has grown driven by a number of opportunities within the area contributing to a reduction of fuel consumption. The importance of finding additional efficiency potentials on existing components has increased and we are working intensively with our system suppliers to deliver what is expected.
