Delphi has also been awarded new EMS business with a major motorcycle manufacturer in India. Details of the contract remain confidential.
Approximately 50 million motorcycles are manufactured annually in the Asia Pacific region, 10 million in China, and 4.5 million in India.
High pollution levels in China and India have been an issue of concern for governments, manufacturers, environmentalists and consumers who are committed to bringing in more fuel-efficient vehicles that also help protect the environment.
“We have been aggressively growing our EMS business in Asia Pacific and we expect to continue to see major growth in the region, with the non-automotive market providing a significant portion of this growth,” said Delphi’s EMS business line executive Steven Kiefer.
Worldwide in 2001, Delphi booked new orders for EMS worth more than $500 million. The Asia Pacific region generated much of this new business driven by evolving concern for improved emissions in high density, developing economies.
