Garrett Motion makes turbochargers and electric-boosting systems that squeeze more power out of car engines, selling to automakers and the replacement-parts market. Think of it as the lungs' performance enhancer for gasoline and diesel vehicles.
Money comes from selling turbochargers to automakers and aftermarket distributors, with annual revenue around USD 3.5B and gross margins near 25%. It's a recurring, volume-driven business tied to vehicle production cycles.
