link hidden, please login to view announced the addition of 172 new automotive aftermarket part numbers across multiple product categories in the first quarter of 2026, expanding coverage for millions of vehicles in operation. New part numbers were introduced across Bosch engine components, pumps, injectors, rotating machines, sensors, batteries, braking components and spark plugs. Bosch Engine Components
Bosch has added 13 new part numbers to its engine components lineup, including canister purge valves, ignition coils, throttle bodies and an EVO Spark Plug. Designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications, these components are intended to support engine performance and reliable operation across a wide range of vehicles, the company said.
The new EVO Spark Plug part number covers 453,000 Asian vehicles in operation across the U.S. and Canada. EVO Spark Plugs from Bosch utilize iridium alloys for long service life and wear resistance, as well as improved insulation, reduced risk of damage during installation and increased thermomechanical, mechanical and electrical strength to withstand extreme pressure during knocking.
Bosch Braking
Bosch released 17 new braking component part numbers in the first quarter, including 14 new part numbers for Bosch Parking Brake Shoes, covering more than 8 million vehicles in operation. These shoes offer bonded and riveted coverage matching OE attachment methods on most domestic and commercial applications, and the coated shoe plate helps prevent rust and corrosion.
Bosch Rotating Machines
Bosch introduced 75 new rotating machine part numbers in the first quarter, including new and remanufactured starters, alternators and A/C compressors. This includes four new part numbers in the Bosch A/C compressor lineup, covering 601,000 vehicles in operation.
Bosch introduced 28 starter part numbers across new and remanufactured offerings, with 28 new starter part numbers covering 25.4 million vehicles in operation and three remanufactured starters covering 13.6 million vehicles.
Thirty-one part numbers were introduced on the alternator front, with 25 new alternator part numbers covering more than 10 million vehicles in operation and six remanufactured alternator part numbers covering an additional 7.96 million vehicles, according to

Bosch added eight new part numbers in pumps – including five fuel pumps, two GDI high-pressure pumps and one electric fuel pump. These pumps cover 40,400 vehicles in operation and are designed to support fuel delivery and engine performance across domestic, Asian and European vehicles.
The Bosch GDI high-pressure pumps debuted two new part numbers covering 537,000 vehicles in operation, featuring an integrated pressure limiter valve, an integrated pressure damper and a compact, lightweight design.
Bosch Injectors
Bosch added 20 new part numbers to its injector lineup in the first quarter, including five gasoline injectors, 12 fuel injectors and three GDI fuel injectors. These injectors are designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications by delivering precise fuel atomization to support combustion, smooth engine operation and drivability across a wide range of vehicles.
Bosch Fuel Injectors debuted 12 part numbers and are engineered for OE fit, form and function. Manufactured from quality materials, they provide precision flow and original spray patterns while maintaining smoothness and drivability.
Bosch Sensors
Bosch added 34 new sensor part numbers, including mass air flow (MAF), pressure, particulate matter, oxygen, camshaft, crankshaft, temperature, knock, throttle position and NOx sensors. Seven new Bosch oxygen sensor part numbers expanded coverage to 6.17 million vehicles in operation, supporting reduced emissions, fuel efficiency and engine performance.
Bosch Batteries
Bosch added five new part numbers to its Powersport Lithium (Gen II) battery lineup. These batteries offer a lifespan four to five times longer than lead-acid batteries, are 65% lighter and provide faster recharge times. They are engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, delivering lightweight power and reliable starts across a range of powersport applications, the company said.
