Magneti Marelli Parts & Services offers ever evolving range of shock absorbers

By James Dixon On January 8, 2026

Shock absorbers act as the dynamic interface between vehicle and road, dissipating the kinetic energy of oscillations to ensure control, comfort, and safety.

To better meet the needs of professional workshops, Magneti Marelli Parts & Services offers a highly comprehensive range, with a constantly evolving portfolio comprising products of original or OE-equivalent quality.

Its coverage extends to the majority of all European vehicles in operation, including the latest models and Chinese manufacturers already present on the market.

The range covers all major designs—twin-tube, monotube, and structural shock absorbers—available in both gas and hydraulic versions. From mainstream applications to premium vehicles, the company says every workshop need is addressed with targeted and dependable solutions.

According to Magneti Marelli Parts & Services, its direct connection with Marelli Ride Dynamics, the division dedicated to the development and production of suspension systems and shock absorbers for original equipment, sets it apart in the aftermarket landscape.

The company says this unique competitive advantage enables it to transfer into the aftermarket the same engineering rigor and technical expertise applied to vehicle manufacturers.

Ride Dynamics’ ongoing commitment to research and development is shaping the evolution of technology in this sector. Solutions such as HS (Hydraulic Stop) for progressive protection under extreme conditions, FSD (Frequency Selective Damping) to simultaneously optimize handling and comfort, SDC (Smart Damping Control) semi-active electronic damping, and the Lifter system for lowered vehicles all testify to Marelli’s suspension expertise.

Additional next-generation technology—including the Semi Active Smart Single Valve e-Shock based on the patented LeanRide platform, and the Full Active Electromechanical Suspension, winner of the Automotive News PACE Pilot Award—are paving the way for the future of vehicle dynamics.
