New service opportunities now for new models

First announced in an eight-part series on both the company’s website and social media channels, Delphi Technologies added first-to-market coverage of 8 OE brake pads for popular car and LCV vehicles to their aftermarket braking program:

• Land Rover Discovery Sport/Range Rover Evoque (05/2019>), front pads
• Opel/Vauxhall Movano (08/2019>), front pads
• Opel/Vauxhall Movano (08/2019>), rear pads

• Audi Q3/Q3 Sportback/Q3 Sportback Quattro, Volkswagen Tiguan (11/2019>), rear pads
• Audi A6/A6 Quattro/A7 Sportback Quattro (01/2019>), rear pads

“Pads are one of the first critical items to be replaced on a vehicle which is why we set ourselves ambitious targets to have new pads in range within 6 to 12 months of a vehicle’s launch,” comments James Tibbert, EMEA Marketing Director, Delphi Technologies Aftermarket. “Being first-to-market ensures our aftermarket customers are well-positioned to access these new service opportunities with proven quality products.”

A history of first-to-market applications for brakes

Quick to bring the right parts to the aftermarket in the shortest possible timeframe, Delphi Technologies has a history of first-to-market brake pads. These previous applications include the Audi Q8 (02/2018>), Ford Focus IV (01/18) and Fiesta ST (05/18>), Toyota Supra (06/19>), Land Rover Defender (2020>), and Volkswagen Golf MK8 (2020>). For both the Land Rover and Volkswagen applications, the company achieved a milestone in speed to market by being quicker than the vehicle manufacturer.

“As a manufacturer of the pioneering propulsion technology fitted as OE to many of these vehicles, we work hand-in-hand with the world’s leading automakers, years before launch,” adds Tibbert. “And by combining the best of both worlds – OE technological leadership and innovative aftermarket solutions – we can always be one step ahead on new product introductions coming to the aftermarket.”
