SUSTAINera expands remanufactured parts for electrified vehicles and launches industry's first NOx sensor
SUSTAINera is taking remanufactured parts beyond engines—covering electric and hybrid drivetrains—and unveiling the industry's first remanufactured NOx sensor.

What Happened
SUSTAINera, the Stellantis division dedicated to circular economy, announced in Amsterdam on September 3, 2026 that it is extending its remanufactured parts portfolio worldwide to electric and hybrid vehicles. Remanufacturing is central to the division's 4R strategy—Reman, Repair, Reuse, Recycle—and SUSTAINera says it helps repairers, aftermarket professionals, distributors and customers meet the need for affordable, sustainable aftermarket solutions with no compromise on quality. All parts are restored to OEM specifications, with the same performance and warranty as genuine MOPAR parts.
- eDCT: automatic transmission portfolio now covers electrified double clutch transmissions for Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) models; each unit is rigorously tested and validated.
- EDC Compressor: the electrically driven air-conditioning compressor now extends the remanufactured range to Battery Electric Vehicles, after previously being offered only for internal combustion engine models; remanufacturing includes wear-part replacement and leak and performance tests.
- High Voltage Batteries (HVB): most Stellantis Battery Electric Vehicles and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles now have an aftersales remanufactured battery offer.
SUSTAINera is also adding what it calls the industry's first remanufactured NOx sensor, developed with partner Valeo. The sensor measures nitrogen oxides and oxygen in exhaust gases and is vital for maintaining engine efficiency and emissions performance. SUSTAINera says the remanufactured part reaches OEM-level quality through a new probe and precise calibration according to OEM specifications. The launch follows the pair's 2025 introduction of the industry's first remanufactured LED headlamp.
According to SUSTAINera, remanufacturing cuts environmental impact by saving up to 80% of raw materials and enabling up to 40% of non-emitted CO2 compared with new parts. The figures come from a Life-Cycle Assessment for Europe, correspond to the best-selling product of a similar family, and use a methodology approved by independent company Sphera, the company says.

SUSTAINera showcases the new products at Automechanika Frankfurt at Messe Frankfurt, Germany.
At Automechanika Frankfurt 2026, SUSTAINera will have a dedicated exhibition area within the Stellantis booth at Hall 9.0, Stand F84-E84, designed as a live workshop environment. The display will include SUSTAINera's full 4R range as well as the co-branded recycled oil TotalEnergies Quartz EV3R MOPAR SUSTAINera, made from 100% regenerated base oil. An artistic installation, 'The Tree of life…extension', will show the journey of transformation and renewal of parts, conveying that nothing valuable should be wasted.
Previously from Mopar
In May 2026, Stellantis opened a vehicle dismantling center in Casablanca, Morocco, its first in the Middle East and Africa. A month earlier, SUSTAINera launched eBay stores in four European countries for used parts from its Turin dismantling center and reported a 51% increase in reuse business in 2025.

Why this matters
For car owners and repairers, this means more affordable, warranty-backed alternatives for EV and hybrid parts—including high-voltage batteries—while cutting waste. The new NOx sensor gives combustion-engine vehicles a remanufactured emissions-control part that matches OEM quality. This supports SUSTAINera's circular economy model, which the company says saves raw materials and avoids CO2 emissions versus new parts.
