Continental chose ST for its excellent supplier performance in all key aspects, including Technology, Cost Competitiveness and Logistics, across a broad range of product categories.
“2008 was a challenging year for Continental Automotive and its supply base due to the integration process after the acquisition of Siemens VDO and the tough market environment we all are facing.
