Delphi tech goes on new Ferrari California T

Delphi Automotive has announced that it has supplied technology and key components for the new Ferrari California T to increase comfort as well as reduce fuel consumption and emissions. Ferrari’s new hardtop-convertible was unveiled this week at the Geneva Motor Show.

Using improved comfort algorithm software, the supplier’s lightweight dual-zone heating, ventilation and air-conditioning module (HVAC), condenser and compact variable compressor help keep passengers comfortable without sacrificing any engine performance. 

Delphi has also developed the complete power and signal distribution system that enables proper functioning of electric and electronic systems. Due to its full system capabilities, the company says it has provided an optimised system, including wiring harnesses and electrical centres, that is lighter and further contributes to the reduction of emissions and fuel consumption.

The California T is the latest in a long-line of Ferrari vehicles to utilise Delphi’s advanced technologies. Delphi has worked with Ferrari since the 1990s to develop and design climate control and electrical/electronic systems to meet Ferrari's high performance and quality demands.
