IHRINGEN, Germany and HANNOVER, Germany, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — VARTA®, a brand of the global market leader for advanced energy storage solutions Clarios, and Hella Gutmann Solutions have announced a collaboration agreement to create new battery diagnostic services in European workshops. The development efforts are aimed at empowering workshops to provide quicker, more accurate battery diagnostic services.

“Clarios is pleased to partner with Hella Gutmann Solutions. The company has a strong reputation in the markets, especially in the field of professional diagnostic solutions,” said Theres Gosztonyi, Vice-President Aftermarket EMEA at Clarios. “Together with our battery expertise, we can   support the repair shops in their daily work even better.”

Because one thing is certain: every vehicle, including electric and hybrid vehicles, requires a low-voltage energy source to ensure the function of important systems. Today, the low-voltage network is increasingly supplying software-based functions such as steer-by-wire, break-by-wire, autonomous functions and optimized driving experience. As a result, car batteries are under greater strain than ever before.

“Hella Gutmann’s declared goal is to strengthen the efficiency and profitability of participants in the independent car repair industry through our analogue and digital workshop equipment, data and services – across all brands, models and drive types,” said Adnan Cemal, Managing Director of Hella Gutmann Solutions. “Through the cooperation with Clarios, we will supplement our existing expertise in battery diagnostics in the high-voltage sector and, in future, also provide our customers in the low-voltage sector with simple insight into the status of vehicle batteries.”
