Mobility division
Bosch’s mobility division constitutes an important segment of the company. In 2021, some 58 percent of the company’s total revenue was generated by the Mobility Solutions division. Moreover, around 55 percent of Bosch’s employees were working within this business sector in the same year.In 2020, Bosch was ranked as the world's largest automotive supplier with automotive segment revenue of almost 46.5 billion euros.

Ownership structure
Unique to Bosch is its corporate structure. Despite employing some 403,000 employees worldwide along with generating sizeable revenues, Bosch is still privately owned. In fact, the company is almost entirely owned by a charitable foundation Robert Bosch Stiftung, which allows for shareholder profits to be doled out to charitable causes. The charity funds projects in the fields of culture, education, healthcare, and social and natural sciences.
