Delphi Technologies Displayed on New Models at Paris Motor Show

Paris, France (PRWEB) October 8, 2008 -- As one of the world's leading suppliers of advanced automotive systems, Delphi Corp. (http://www.delphi.com/4innovation) (PINKSHEETS: DPHIQ) is well-positioned to help vehicle manufacturers turn their visions into realities. Those visions include vehicles that lead their classes in safety, are environmentally responsible, and are linked into personal and business networks.

From the latest electronics and safety systems to intelligent electrical/electronic architecture and from environmentally friendly powertrain technologies to advanced thermal systems, Delphi's portfolio of high-technology solutions covers almost every area of advanced vehicle engineering.

"Delphi is committed to providing innovative technologies to consumers and offering our customers a competitive advantage," said Ron Pirtle, President Delphi Europe, Middle-East and Africa. "We anticipate significant growth in three major marketing trends -- which we've labeled Safe (http://www.delphi.com/4safe), Green (http://www.delphi.com/4green) and Connected (http://www.delphi.com/4connected) -- in every corner of the world. Generally speaking, all of the automobile markets are showing increasing interest in improved vehicle safety, environmentally friendly products, and technologies that keep drivers and occupants connected to their lives."

Innovative technologies included on new models shown at the Paris Motor Show include:

?    A new highly-durable automotive cable with significantly lighter and thinner insulation than traditional cable, Delphi's halogen-free ultra-thin- wall cable, will make its debut in Europe beginning in 2009. Halogen-Free Cable, a recyclable and environmentally friendly product, is free of dangerous halogens and offers excellent pinch resistance, nearly double that of traditional cable, and outstanding abrasion resistance. The use of this advanced cable also leads to cable size and weight reduction which, in turn, results in lower fuel consumption and reduced CO2 emissions produced by the vehicle.

?    The Multec Common Rail (CR) Diesel Fuel Injection System from Delphi is widely used throughout the industry. It is a high-value, cost- competitive servo-hydraulic system that is not only high performance but simple and robust. In addition, Delphi's Multec CR injection is easily packaged, and utilizes less space than competing systems. Many of the world's top automakers have chosen this Delphi system and it is featured on the new Dacia Logan, Dacia Sandero, Renault Kangoo, and Renault Megane III.

?    Delphi's patented Fuba ScanDiv(TM) IC - featured on the new Porsche 911, defines the next level of antenna diversity technology. Incorporating more than 20 years of experience developing high-performing multi-antenna systems, Delphi's ScanDiv IC provides maximum system flexibility and value. Its designed-in flexibility enables optimal RDS (Radio Data System) and TMC (Traffic Message Channel) functionality.

?    The Delphi Fuba(TM) TV Reception System - featured on the new BMW Series 7 and Porsche 911, uses multiple in-glass or composite body structure antennas, integrated amplifiers and ScanDiv(TM) scanning diversity technology to provide worldwide color TV reception in vehicles. Patented ScanDiv technology automatically selects the best audio and video signal from the four antennas to provide passengers in-home TV quality.

?    Delphi provides climate control systems that result in enhanced vehicle performance, durability, comfort, and efficiency, while delivering the most cost-effective solution. Delphi -- which has supplied the climate control systems for all Ferrari models dating back to 1993 -- is supplying the new Ferrari California with the complete air conditioning system. New models shown in Paris featuring Delphi's heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system also include the Opel Insignia and Renault Laguna Coupe.

?    With its increased fuel-efficiency and precise, predictable steering with less driver effort, the electric power steering (EPS) is one of the most appreciated consumer features. Drivers benefit from Delphi's EPS system through its improved on-center feel and active return-to-center, which requires less driver effort. The active damping is designed to make steering feel more precise and predictable. Other benefits include reduced workload and less over-steer, along with increased vehicle stability and safety. Delphi's EPS is featured on the new Alfa Romeo Mito, Fiat 500 Abarth and Ford Ka.
