Q: Dana Incorporated has a rich history dating back to its founding pioneers. How has the company’s business model evolved over the years to adapt to changing market dynamics?

Over the course of our history, we have navigated through more than 117 years of vehicle evolution, persisted through industry turbulence and taken the lead in transformative technological revolutions. In this time, we have established strong relationships and a level of trust with our customers that simply cannot be beaten. We initially began as a supplier of universal joints and drive shafts; however, over the years, we have expanded our capabilities and offerings. From traditional driveline systems, we have diversified into technologies such as e-Propulsion systems, thermal management solutions and software-driven controls. This evolution enables us to stay ahead of industry shifts, delivering comprehensive solutions that cater to evolving customer needs while also driving sustainability and efficiency.
