Great Wall, Delphi to develop safety, powertrain components
Great Wall Motor Co. Ltd. says it has signed a strategic agreement with Delphi Automotive LLP to develop components for powertrains, safety systems, thermal systems and electronics.
U.S. supplier Delphi began providing electronic control units and other components to Great Wall in 2005. In August, Delphi announced that it was producing a high-pressure common rail system, fuel injectors and fuel pumps to Great Wall for pickups exported to Europe.
The new agreement deepens the partnership, said Wei Jianjun, chairman of the Great Wall Motors. "Supporting products provided by Delphi for Great Wall Motors have a strong r&d potential," Wei said.
