Automotive component manufacturer Hero Motors Company (HMC) has secured a strategic stake in UK’s Hewland Engineering Ltd for an undisclosed sum. The move will enable Hewland to further strengthen its product and service portfolio–particularly transmissions for electrified passenger cars–and pursue opportunities among global OEMs and Tier One suppliers.

“This investment represents a significant strategic inflection point for us in the transmission product segment,” HMC Chairman and Managing Director Pankaj Munjal said. “By combining Hewland’s comprehensive design and analysis capabilities with our ability to support high-volume manufacturing, we are strongly positioned to offer full-stream transmission solutions to global OEMs and Tier One suppliers. We are continuing to invest in the UK, as it is a significant hub for our EV- and cycle-focused activities in particular, as well as for Hewland’s established motorsport customer base.”
