Professional+ Brake Pads: Launching Soon to Power the LCV Market

In today’s fast-paced logistics landscape, light commercial vehicles (LCVs) are the backbone of business. From parcel deliveries to passenger transport, they carry the weight of modern commerce. Downtime is costly. Performance is non-negotiable. That’s why Delphi developed Professional+ brake pads tailored to the unique demands of LCVs – arriving to market shortly.

Engineered for Endurance

Unlike passenger cars or full-size trucks, LCVs operate in a demanding middle ground. They may not boast high horsepower, but they shoulder heavy loads and face relentless stop-start city driving. Professional+ is specifically engineered to handle this.

Crafted with a bespoke heavy-duty friction material, Professional+ brake pads deliver 40% more durability on average than conventional options.
Fewer replacements, less workshop downtime, and lower total cost of ownership for fleet operators and service providers.

Real-world validation: Tested under pressure on vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, simulating real-life usage.

Additionally, each set includes high-quality grease and shims, even if not provided by OE, resulting in reduced vibration and noise, straight from the box.

Engineered with Purpose, Designed with Style

Delphi’s Professional+ brake pads don’t just perform — they look premium:

Distinctive blue backplate
