CATL and ZF Group join forces for an optimal aftermarket service

Contemporary Amperex Technology Co Ltd and ZF Group, a tech company supplying systems for passenger cars, signed on Friday a strategic partnership to push forward cooperation in aftermarket services, including service network, battery-related training and connectivity.
Under the agreement, CATL will provide ZF with battery training know-how, which will be combined with ZF's high-voltage training so as to enhance the competitiveness of its training programs and other aftersales services. The two parties also agreed to jointly establish and enhance standards.
"The partnership with ZF is an important step toward developing a global comprehensive value chain of batteries. With the support of ZF's worldwide network, we will further enhance our global aftermarket service and continue to deliver customer-driven new energy products to the world," said Zhou Jia, president of CATL.
"Enabling creative collaboration between companies can jump-start business innovation. Together with CATL, we will bring the global footprint and leading service solutions of ZF's Aftermarket Division further into play," said Holger Klein, a member of the board of management at ZF Group.
