Delphi to Highlight Technologies at IAA

Delphi Corp plans to present 10 new technologies and to announce several new customer programmes at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt next month. The news will focus on two of Delphi’s principal concerns in Europe: environmental protection and safety technologies.

The company will show a new halogen-free recyclable cable and the first-ever integrated Driver Protection Module, which offers drivers up to 27 per cent more protection from serious injury during a frontal collision based on crash simulations.

“Two of our main product goals are to help take the automobile out of the environmental equation, and to help protect motorists throughout the entire driving experience,” said Volker Barth, president, Delphi Europe, Middle East and Africa. “With the environment, we are developing new technologies that will help automakers produce better-performing vehicles that improve fuel economy, reduce emissions and more. With safety, we are developing new technologies that will help protect drivers and occupants during every day driving, as well as before, during and after a collision event. We are particularly proud to push the boundaries on what is technically possible and commercially viable.”
