Delphi, a brand of PHINIA Inc., has reached the top coverage position in the European Independent Aftermarket (IAM) across all five primary steering and suspension categories. This significant expansion covers track control arms, tie rod ends, inner tie rods, ball joints, and stabilizer bar links. Delphi continues to strengthen its growth momentum by extending support for Chinese vehicle manufacturers and maintaining a rigorous product development cycle.
Steering and suspension components are critical to vehicle safety, serving as the fundamental systems that connect the driver to the road. In a market where using the correct parts is key to supporting customers and ensuring a safe, enjoyable driving experience, Delphi continues to be a trusted partner for workshops by offering the necessary parts for almost every vehicle.
Delphi has achieved the highest coverage rate in all primary steering and suspension product groups in the European aftermarket. Each category covers over 80% of the European vehicle parc, with most exceeding 95%
According to TecAlliance figures from November 2025, Delphi’s market-leading coverage rates are as follows:
Track Control Arms / Wishbones: 95.8%
Ball Joints: 83.6%
Stabilizer Bar Links (Z-Rods): 95.1%
Outer Tie Rods: 98.1%
Inner Tie Rods: 94.8%
This success is the result of long-term catalog development and close coordination with European repair demands. While other brands remain active in these segments, Delphi has surpassed all competitors, expanding its steering and suspension range by more than 30% compared to 2023. Achieving this growth in just two years marks an impressive milestone for the company.
As the number of vehicles from Chinese manufacturers continues to rise in the European market, Delphi has proactively expanded its range to support this shift. The company has recently launched 65 steering and suspension articles for the following models:
BYD: Dolphin, Atto 2, and Atto 3
MG (SAIC): GS, HS, ZS, MG 4, and MG 5
Chery / OMODA: Tiggo 7 and OMODA 5
Additionally, Delphi announced that 450 more parts for other Chinese models are currently in development, ensuring even broader coverage as these vehicles become more common on European roads.
With a portfolio now exceeding 8,500 part numbers, Delphi enables technicians to easily access the high-quality parts needed to satisfy their customers across all major repair categories.
Delphi’s extensive vehicle parc coverage provides significant advantages for workshops and distributors alike. It shortens sourcing times, reduces repair delays, and enhances the overall customer experience. For distributors, Delphi’s coverage power allows for more efficient supply planning with fewer gaps in high-volume categories.
Viewing this milestone as just the beginning, Delphi reaffirms its commitment to leading the industry with high-quality parts that provide the most comprehensive vehicle coverage in Europe.
