ThyssenKrupp Automotive's takeover of DaimlerChrysler subsidiary Mercedes-Benz Lenkungen adds a [euro]300 million unit to the German supplier's growing steering systems business.

ThyssenKrupp already has substantial interests in steering systems through its Liechyenstein-based Presta subsidiary.

TKA has also acquired a 60 percent stake in Fawer Automotive Changchun's steering systems operations through a new joint venture, ThyssenKrupp Presta Fawer (Changchun) Co. Ltd. That addition will almost double ThyssenKrupp's steering-column output in China.
