Continental’s Automotive Sector To Be Renamed Aumovio

Continental group sector Automotive unveiled its future name. The soon-to-be independent automotive company will be named Aumovio. The name of the new company combines its strong market position, heritage and technological expertise in the automotive industry with its ambition to shape the mobility of the future with innovations, noted company officials in a press release.

Aumovio will offer electronic products and advanced mobility solutions for the software-defined vehicle and safe, inspiring, connected and autonomous mobility to a wide range of global customers. According to a market analysis by Berylls, Automotive expects the value of solutions per vehicle in these segments to grow by an average of 4.7% annually until 2029, and more dynamically than the number of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles produced worldwide (based on the market forecast by S&P Global Mobility).

Following the expected approval at the Continental Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, Aumovio is scheduled to list on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in September 2025.

“As an independent company, we gain significantly more creative power and speed. Aumovio will be characterized by a triad of technologically leading products, a consistent value creation strategy and a global synergetic network, combined with a strong local presence for our customers. Our aim is to further expand our position in the future fields and growth markets of mobility,” said Philipp von Hirschheydt, member of the executive board of Continental and CEO of Automotive.
