If we can take anything away from what we’ve learned throughout 2020 it would be that anything is possible, and KW Automotive continues to prove that. Starting on January 1, 2021, Reiger Racing Suspension, a leader in the off-road, racing damper market, will be acquired by KW Beteiligungsholding GmbH. We’ve visited the KW HQ in the past and as a preferred KW dealer, we are always interested in their ever-growing expansion and excited to see the opportunities that unfold from it and one of them being—KW expanding on its technology leadership position as a manufacturer of high-quality suspension systems.
