Webasto SE is a company headquartered in Stockdorf, Germany, which makes sunroofs, electric-car chargers and air-conditioning systems.^[1] Holger Engelmann is the CEO of the company.

Webasto owns 11 locations in China, including in Wuhan.^[2] In late January 2020, the company disclosed that five of its workers had tested positive to SARS-CoV-2.^[3][4][5] This was reportedly one of the first cases of person-to-person transmission of the virus outside China.^[5]

The outbreak was handled internally within the company.^[6] The story was initially reported in The Wall Street Journal as a case of successful containment of the outbreak.^[1] By March 2020, genome studies tracking mutations of the virus suggested that the Webasto outbreak had not been successfully contained, and was linked to a 'decent part' of the overall coronavirus outbreak in Europe.^[7] Genetic sequencing also linked the cluster of cases at Webasto's headquarters to the virus outbreak in northern Italy.^[8] In May 2020 some medical disprove this assumptions and confirm that the Webasto case remained isolated,^[9] while in July other studies identified the most common Italian strain as coming from Germany.^[10]

In 2022, Webasto has joined forces with Bosch to develop a self-driving car that will enable autonomous driving at Level 4.^[11] The company has integrated 25 sensors from Bosch into the roof of a prototype vehicle for this purpose.^[11]

Webasto currently have offices in Monrovia, California, for EV charging division. Some of the notable cordsets are SAE J1337 AC chargers for popular Ford MachE and GM vehicles.
