A NEW Aftermarket Turbocharger line for Ageing Vehicles.

Garrett Motion Inc. (Nasdaq: GTX) (“Garrett” or the “Company”), a leading differentiated automotive technology provider, today unveiled Garrett Original MAXLIFE, a new turbocharger line designed for vehicles 15 years and older. Garrett Original MAXLIFE is available to distributors in Europe, with shipments to workshops.

With more than 70 years of turbocharging heritage, 1400 engineers, 6 global R&D centers, and an installed base of turbos in more than 150 million vehicles worldwide, Garrett is the industry leader in turbocharger technology and the #1 turbo brand recognized in the aftermarket. Garrett is known for performance, quality, and reliability at the highest OE standards.

Through a long-standing presence in the aftermarket and close collaboration with distributors and workshops across 165 countries, Garrett sees a clear shift in customer needs driven by the ageing car parc. In Europe, vehicles aged 15 years and older now represent the fastest-growing segment. As the residual value of vehicles declines, owners become increasingly price-sensitive, often turning to low-cost non-OE alternatives to extend vehicle life. With the launch of Garrett Original MAXLIFE, Garrett is directly addressing the needs of this customer sector by offering the first turbocharger solution that delivers OEM-certified quality and performance, combined with value for money. Customers now have a trusted alternative to low-cost options.

“MAXLIFE gives workshops and drivers a dependable solution at the right price. It preserves the performance and quality people expect from the Garrett name, while offering a cost-effective answer for ageing but still hard-working vehicles,” said Eric Fraysse, President of Global Aftermarket at Garrett.

MAXLIFE completes Garrett’s aftermarket offering and expands its support across the full vehicle lifecycle. Garrett’s aftermarket portfolio now spans three tiers: Garrett Original Equipment for newer vehicles needing brand-new replacements, Garrett Original Reman for mid-age vehicles requiring a cost-efficient OE-standard remanufactured solution, and Garrett Original MAXLIFE for vehicles over 15 years old, delivering an affordable, OEM-certified turbo assembled via Garrett’s NEW Smart Component Recovery process.
