Speed runs in our blood

Our roots lie in the world of motorsport. It inspired Herbert Drexler to found the company - and continues to fascinate us at Drexler Automotive to this day.

Drexler Automotive Formula Cup

The springboard for the next generation

If you want to pursue a career as a formula racing driver, the Drexler Automotive Formula Cup is the ideal way to gain a foothold in motorsport. The series, which was launched in 1992 under the name Austria Formula 3 Cup, has been supported by us as the main sponsor since 2018: We support the racing series financially and with material resources.

The Formula Student racing series is an international design competition for budding engineers. The aim is to build a Formula car and compete against international rivals on the racetrack. The team with the best jury rating for design, racing performance, budget and business plan wins. We supply the drive shaft system and the limited slip differentials approved for the racing series.

Since 2019, we have exclusively supplied the FIA World Touring Car Cup (WTCR) with FIA-approved limited slip differentials from our production - and are therefore also a supplier for all other TCR competitions.

Werner Gusenbauer, DCMS

A straight line is a troublesome connection between two curves. That's why we have been using Drexler's absolutely indestructible and permanently effective locks in our drift school for over 20 years.

The symbiosis of high competence, fantastic implementation speed, combined with the goal of making the impossible possible, is the conviction for me to work with the right partner in the field of differential and transmission development.
