BEIJING, China (April 21, 2008) – ArvinMeritor (NYSE: ARM) announced today that its Body Systems business unit within the Light Vehicle Systems (LVS) business group has been awarded new business to supply over two million window regulator motors to Hyundai Motor Company. The agreement will supply Hyundai’s Elantra, a mid-size sedan, with ArvinMeritor’s New Generation Motor (NGM) II from mid-2008 through mid-2012. "This important new business award reflects Hyundai’s confidence in ArvinMeritor’s world-class engineering and manufacturing capabilities," said Phil Martens, president, LVS. "The NGM II offers several benefits, including an improved electromagnetic compliance design, a more robust brush card, and lower noise, vibration and harshness due to the improved rigidity of the gear housing – all at a reduced cost."
