Italian braking technology company Brembo is deepening its push into China's fast-evolving intelligent vehicle sector through a new partnership with Ningbo Huaxiang Electronic Co aimed at localizing its next-generation brake-by-wire platform, Sensify.

The two companies announced on Friday that they had signed joint venture agreements to cooperate on the industrialization and commercialization of Sensify in China, as automakers accelerate the shift toward software-defined vehicles and intelligent chassis architectures.

The move marks another step in Brembo's strategy to expand beyond traditional braking systems into integrated software-driven mobility technologies.

Sensify is Brembo's intelligent braking platform built around a fluid-free by-wire architecture.
