We have successfully built on our world leading position for drum brakes and have gained a significant market share on disc brakes for trailers in Europe.
The agreement with Daimler is one of several new wins on disc brakes that in combination are estimated to be worth 650 MSEK until 2017, as previously communicated in our interim report.
Mercedes-Benz TrailerAxleSystems has been manufacturing disc-braked trailer axles for more than 15 years. The cooperation for the development of the DCA L7 combines the innovative commercial vehicle know how of Haldex with the long-term expertise of Mercedes-Benz TrailerAxleSystems in the use of disc brakes.
