Marelli

Marelli is a leading global independent supplier to the automotive sector, deeply committed to co-creating the future of mobility with automakers, suppliers, and technology partners. Formed in 2019 through the strategic merger of Calsonic Kansei and Magneti Marelli—and operating under the ownership of the global investment firm KKR—the company functions with the agility of a massive startup and the enduring legacy of two automotive pioneers. Marelli’s mission is to transform the mobility landscape by delivering design-led, sustainable, and highly personalized driving experiences while serving as a crucial innovation partner to major OEMs worldwide.

The company boasts an incredibly diverse and comprehensive technology portfolio that touches nearly every aspect of the modern vehicle. Marelli is a market leader in automotive lighting, intelligent electronics, advanced interior systems, thermal solutions, and electrified propulsion. A major pillar of its current strategy is enabling the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV), providing automakers with powerful, scalable platforms to seamlessly customize their vehicle architectures. Furthermore, Marelli leverages its century-long pedigree in Motorsport as a high-speed incubator for new technologies, successfully transferring track-tested innovations in performance and sustainable energy management directly into the passenger car market.

Guided by a newly appointed leadership team, including Interim CEO David Slump, Marelli operates on a massive global scale with a heavy emphasis on operational excellence and environmental stewardship. Moving through 2026, the company continues to aggressively advance its "Design for Sustainability" initiatives, with the vast majority of its innovation projects strictly aligned to eco-friendly criteria and a growing percentage of its manufacturing powered by renewable energy. Through strategic partnerships, such as its recent technical alliance with Toyota Racing in the FIA World Endurance Championship, Marelli continues to solidify its position as an indispensable architect of a safer, greener, and more connected automotive future.
