Keysight Technologies has introduced two new end-of-line (EOL) test platforms — the EV2020B and EV2020BE — designed to provide automakers and electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) manufacturers with scalable and unified solutions for production testing. The platforms aim to streamline manufacturing processes, reduce costs, and ensure readiness for evolving industry standards.
The EV2020B EV Manufacturing Functional Test Platform targets EV component manufacturers, offering customizable configurations for testing key systems such as DC-DC converters and on-board chargers.

Meanwhile, the EV2020BE is tailored for EVSE testing, supporting both AC and DC charging standards within a single platform. Its modular design allows quick changeovers and dynamic power-sharing capabilities, enabling simulation of dual-gun peak load conditions to validate charging performance efficiently.
“Electrification is reshaping the automotive landscape, and manufacturers need more than just tools — they need confidence,” said Thomas Goetzl, Vice President and General Manager for Keysight’s Automotive & Energy Solutions. “With our expanded end-of-line portfolio, we’re not just enabling functional testing, we’re delivering a unified ecosystem that bridges R&D and manufacturing.”

Keysight said the new platforms address key industry challenges including fragmented system architectures and the lack of standardization across power conversion systems. The company added that by integrating EOL testing into a consistent ecosystem that spans research, development, and production, manufacturers can accelerate time-to-market, reduce capital expenditure, and future-proof their operations as EV adoption continues to grow.
