AUBURN HILLS, MI-Siemens VDO Automotive’s powertrain fuel supply systems division has opened its new 5,000-sf fuel validation test center here. “Siemens VDO Automotive has invested $2 million to transform our Auburn Hills, MI machining and tooling shop into a state-of-the-art facility that significantly improves on our local ability to develop products, such as fuel pump modules, that meet the unique and specific North American customer and regulatory performance requirements,” says Siemens VDO Automotive North American fuel supply system division leader Hugo Ritzenthaler.

It also allows Siemens VDO Automotive to conduct prototyping and testing at the same location, with access to the company’s Powertrain business unit’s on-site garage facilities for test vehicle preparation.
