Stuttgart/Germany, May 13, 2019 – MAHLE closes the 2018 business year with a strong balance sheet. Despite an economic slowdown in the last quarter, the group improved its major key figures—significantly, in some cases. This year, the group anticipates a decline in market conditions.

Stuttgart/Germany, Parma/Italy, April 29, 2019 – MAHLE responds to significant market interest for MAHLE solutions in the area of workshop equipment by laying the cornerstone for the construction of a new Service Solutions center in Parma.

Stuttgart, January 24, 2019 – One year ago, MAHLE launched the Classic Line, a special spare parts segment for vintage and modern classic cars.

Stuttgart, January 09, 2019 – The automotive industry is in the midst of a digitalization process. Everyone is talking about connectivity and autonomous driving, which are developments that offer wholesalers and workshops additional sales potential. However, anyone whose job it is to efficiently and reliably diagnose, calibrate, and maintain a large number of different vehicles requires a competent service partner. With the digital solutions from MAHLE Aftermarket, service and diagnostic tools are interconnected and always up-to-date. The CustomerCare portal, available from mid-2019, and the well-established online catalog ensure instantaneous identification and ordering of the correct parts as well as direct contact between the wholesaler, the workshop, and MAHLE. And following the order, a digital, automated logistics system makes sure delivery is reliable and on time.

Stuttgart, November 27, 2018 – Until now, printed tables placed in front of the vehicle were used for the calibration of driver assistance systems.

Workshops therefore no longer need to keep numerous tables for the different vehicle models: the tables for new types of vehicles are automatically stored when the system is updated. This also impressed the KRAFTHAND specialist jury, who rewarded the innovation from the workshop solution provider MAHLE with first place in the Krafthand Technology Award.
