| KYB to supply Audi |
|
KYB is strengthening its position as a leading original equipment (OE) manufacturer, and is supplying Audi with two first class automotive components - a KYB branded power steering pump and rear shock absorbers - for its new A4 model. The shock absorbers are designed to provide exemplary vehicle control and road holding, while the high performance power steering pump will ensure smooth, effortless steering. The recently redesigned A4 now features Audi's distinctive single-frame front grille projecting its powerful, sporting pedigree. Hajime Sato, managing director of KYB Europe says: "Quality performance vehicles such as the A4, require superior quality automotive components, and KYB is committed to using assured technology to produce such innovative products that are purpose designed to meet Audi's precise needs." In addition to the Audi-VW Group, KYB Corporation supplies numerous original equipment vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) including Daimler-Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mitsubishi, Nissan, PSA Peugeot Citro?n, Renault and Toyota. KYB also supplies a number of other automotive aftermarket components alongside its shock absorbers, including coil springs, suspension mounting kits and protection kits. Now a truly global manufacturer, KYB has developed its aftermarket business throughout Europe, as well as the Middle East and Africa, and has a rapidly growing market share in North America.
