Company Profile
In 1986, foresaw that CVT would become the mainstream transmission system for scooters, replacing traditional manual transmission bikes on the market. Therefore, CTI (TGB) cooperated with the Metal Industries Research & Development Center (MIRDC) and the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) to research the design criteria, processes, and production technologies for scooter CVTs.
In 1989, successfully introduced scooter CVTs into mass production. Shortly after, we received orders from Piaggio, the largest scooter manufacturer in Europe, to develop and mass-produce CVTs from 50cc to 850cc, OEM/ODM scooter CVT development and production. Our customer group includes Piaggio, Peugeot, Morini (Suzuki Europe), Minarelli (Yamaha Europe), BRP-Rotax (engines for Aprilia & BMW), etc.
Foresaw that scooter CVT technology became popular and price competition caused profit decline. CTI (TGB) started to search for new blue sea products. In 2004, CTI (TGB) took on the development project for BRP-Rotax's new design 400cc/810cc Outlander ATV CVT for their Can-Am engine, and began mass production in 2005. The BRP Outlander ATV, benefiting from the high-performance BRP-Rotax Can-Am engine and the excellent, long-term stable quality CTI/TGB CVT, gained consumer recognition and saw significant sales growth. BRP rapidly launched a series of Outlander models including the 490cc, 660cc, 810cc SHO (Super High Output), and 1000cc, capturing ATV/SSV market shares year after year, establishing a dominant position in today’s market.
Around the same time, Polaris partnered with CTI to co-develop 300cc/350cc CVTs for the Hawk Eye ATV model.
CTI supported TGB for their vehicle CVT, beginning the transition from 50cc/90cc/125cc engines and scooters to the profitable and high-challenge ATV/UTV market. CTI, with its mature CVT technology, helped TGB develop 400cc/500cc/600cc/1000cc ATV/UTV CVTs, successfully entering the European market and establishing a leading position, surpassing all other Taiwanese ATV/SSV manufacturers, and competing on par with major European and American companies.
In response to the rising trend of electric vehicles, CTI, in cooperation with TGB, secured a contract with China Motor Corporation for the E-Moving Pick-Up scooter, successfully penetrating the China Post delivery and logistics customer base.
CTI continues to invest in R&D, moving toward future electric vehicle models and new challenges from new models and customers.
