Doftek Set to Transform Global Vehicle Dynamics with Prestigious Euro Marques

Melbourne-based automotive technology company Doftek is on the verge of formalising agreements that could see its innovative Active Wheel Alignment System (AWAS) fitted to showroom vehicles before the end of the decade.

The ‘overnight success’ comes after nearly a decade of development — funded almost exclusively by the company's founders. To assist in industrialising the Doftek technology, the company announced this month it has appointed former Mercedes-AMG Chief Technical Officer Jochen Hermann to its Advisory Board.

Hermann's appointment underscores the growing global recognition of the Australian-developed technology. In an exclusive interview with TheAutoExec, Doftek founder Dr Geoff Rogers revealed that two "prestigious" European OEMs have committed to series production of the company's technology, with several more in advanced discussions.
