Photo of the week: The colourful DX2's are wonderful

KYBURZ vehicles are available in every colour. The colourful DX2s are enjoyed by (from left to right): Stefan Breu (DX2 in turquoise green), Carmine Volpe (DX2 in pearl gentian) and Flurin Vicentini on the standard DX2. Customised painting of a DX2 costs CHF 1530 incl. VAT and makes a vehicle unique.

KYBURZ on television RSI

The "Trend" programme on RSI television in Ticino broadcast a 45 minute programme entitled "Batterie, la chiave del green" (Batteries, the key to environmental protection). In the film, Olivier Groux explains KYBURZ's battery recycling process. (The video starts at the beginning of this article)

The programme also shows the use of used vehicle batteries as stationary energy storage devices by Modual with application examples.

KYBURZ is delighted that there is now also a documentary for Italian-speaking employees, customers and business partners!

Successful week in B2C sales

The KYBURZ mobility consultants for senior citizens have had a very successful week. Rarely have the salespeople in the B2C (Business To Customer) segment generated more sales.

"Our vehicles are well known," says Stefan Bobst and adds: "Many older people think about their future mobility before they give up their driving licence." Tobias Wunderli adds: "When the time comes, it has to be quick and KYBURZ has the products that customers want!"

It's not just the customers who look forward to the delivery of the vehicles, the mobility advisors often talk about it too. Stefan Bobst: "They are really interesting people who I enjoy meeting again - and when I get a compliment for what we do as a company, that's the best reward for the work".

Team building while climbing

The KYBURZ research team went on a team outing to the Balmberg at the weekend. After a hike of several hours up the mountain, it was time to climb. They mastered a total of four pitches. For Oli and Franz, it was their first climbing tour of this duration and they both mastered the challenge brilliantly. 

The team enjoyed the team-building trip together - not just the climbing, but also the glorious weather. They can now start the new week with plenty of new energy and a stronger team dynamic.

Visit to Zurich Zoo

KYBURZ supports Zurich Zoo in the form of annual company tickets. These 4 tickets are free of charge for our employees and their families and can be reserved and obtained from Sarah.

Ali Shabani, Head of Technical Planning at KYBURZ, recently took advantage of this offer and took these great photos at the zoo.

Good to know:
You even get a 10% discount in the zoo shop with your annual pass!

A day in the life of Jan Mehlin

Rina Suka: How long have you been with KYBURZ?

Jan Mehlin: I've been part of the team at KYBURZ Switzerland AG since February 2024.

Rina: How did you hear about us?

Jan: I came across a job advertisement on Job.ch. However, I was already familiar with KYBURZ, especially through my many years of working at Diener AG in Embrach, where I regularly saw the post vehicles and often had conversations about them.

Rina: What did you do before KYBURZ?

Jan: My professional career spans more than three decades, including more than 20 years in various areas of quality assurance (QA), where I have also repeatedly held management positions since 2005.

Rina: What are your activities?

Jan: My main tasks include checking incoming goods, testing characteristics and first article inspections. During production, I monitor quality with spot checks to ensure faultless vehicles and our very good quality. Error management is also crucial, as we record errors, determine their causes and take measures to avoid them in the future - both at our suppliers and internally.

Rina: What are your strengths?

Jan: I am a calm and pragmatic person who analyses a lot of things at work. My many years of experience certainly help to create a structured working environment.

Rina: What motivates you?

Jan: I'm motivated by the variety of my day-to-day work, as there are new challenges every day. It also motivates me to help all areas - not just production, but also other departments.

Rina: What is your typical daily routine?

Jan: My working day usually starts at 7.30 am. First, I get an overview of my emails, prioritise them and take care of any pending tasks. I check incoming goods, organise production control and take care of outstanding organisational matters.

Rina: What do you like? What do you like less?

Jan: I particularly like the open communication and the mutual trust. I'm looking forward to bringing all the departments together in our new building in Embrach in 2025.

Rina: What do you like to do in your free time?

Jan: I love travelling in my free time. Mallorca and Gran Canaria in particular attract me. I also enjoy short trips to Italy and discovering beautiful new places.

Rina: What are your plans for the future?

Jan: I'm open to new things and like to be surprised. I'm looking forward to our new location in 2025 and to experiencing and helping to shape the visions of KYBURZ AG.
