International automotive supplier Continental supplies Alfa Romeo with its MK C1 for the Integrated Brake System (IBS) of the new Giulia. It is worldwide the first time that the brake system enters series production.

"I am very proud that we supply our MK C1 in such vehicle as the Alfa Romeo Giulia. It honors also the great performance of the team that helped to develop and to realize the series production of this innovative brake system", says Felix Bietenbeck, Head of Continental's business unit Vehicle Dynamics.

"The MK C1 offers great braking force for safety systems and short braking distances help prevent accidents and reduce accident severity." Continental has developed the MK C1 electronic brake system, which is more dynamic, lighter and more compact than conventional brake systems. The new integrated system also reduces pedal vibrations and the driver always feels the same force-path characteristics in the pedal - thus providing a high level of comfort.
