Our Story
ACDelco’s journey began over a century ago, in 1916, when William Durant founded United Motors Corporation, which later became part of General Motors. This marked the birth of a brand that would revolutionize the automotive parts industry. Throughout the decades, ACDelco has been at the forefront of innovation, consistently developing and manufacturing high-quality components that have kept millions of vehicles running smoothly across the globe.
From our humble beginnings as a supplier of replacement parts for GM vehicles, we’ve grown into a worldwide leader in automotive technology. Our commitment to excellence has seen us through the evolution of the automobile, from the early days of carburetors and drum brakes to today’s advanced electric and hybrid systems. Along the way, we’ve expanded our product line to include not just GM-specific parts, but also a vast array of components for virtually every make and model on the road. This rich history of adaptation and growth has positioned ACDelco as a trusted name in both OEM and aftermarket parts, serving professional technicians and DIY enthusiasts alike with the same dedication to quality and innovation that has defined us for over 100 years.
