BorgWarner Supplies Latest HY-VO® Chain Technology for Toyota Tundra and New Luxury SUV


AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Oct. 18 / - BorgWarner Morse
TEC's latest HY-VO® four-wheel drive chain technology debuts on the 2007
Toyota Tundra and a new luxury SUV scheduled for release in early 2008.
Developed to provide best-in-class sound quality and strength, the technology
allows car makers to quietly transfer more power without expanding the size of
the transfer case.

"Four-wheel drive applications increasingly demand greater durability
while drivers expect quiet comfort in the cab," said Alfred Weber, President
and General Manager, BorgWarner Morse TEC. "Morse TEC's technology delivers
both, without increasing weight. This contributes to better fuel economy,
reduced emissions and improved performance."

The Morse TEC HY-VO® chain product line has been powering automotive
products for over 40 years. Customers have shown their confidence in the
continuous innovation of the HY-VO® product line by employing hundreds of
millions of HY-VO® chains in transmissions and transfer cases around the
world.
