Karlsruhe, Germany – Bosch’s range of new starters and alternators already covers a wide range of passenger car, commercial vehicle, and off-highway applications. This means workshops can already draw on a broad range of products for vehicles in which Bosch products were installed as original equipment. By extending this range into an all-makes program, Bosch is now greatly increasing its workshop program once again, so that in the future workshops will be able to replace various manufacturers’ defective OE starters and alternators. Thereby the extensive product and process know-how gained from more than 100 years of experience with starters and alternators is incorporated into the selection of the current program. The range expansion includes products for passenger cars and commercial vehicles of many European and Asian brands. Adapted to the requirements of the market, the program is being further expanded, so that coverage for vehicles from various manufacturers is continuously growing. At the same time, part numbers are being bundled wherever possible in order to keep the range condensed and increase product availability for the various vehicle applications.
The Bosch Mobility Aftermarket division (MA) is one of the world’s leading providers of spare parts, diagnostic solutions and repair-shop equipment for passenger cars, two-wheelers and commercial vehicles. Its product portfolio includes products made as Bosch original equipment, products developed in-house and specifically manufactured for the aftermarket, as well as services.
