                 Double-Digit Regional Growth Plans On-Track

        TOKYO, May 23 Delphi Automotive Systems' aggressive pursuit of 
Asia Pacific business led to more than 35 new contracts in the region during
the first quarter of 2001, company officials said today.

The new contracts, which average three years in length, are for 23 different
products and support 19 customers in Asia Pacific, including the recent
announcement of Delphi's business with China Engine Corp.  At the customers'
request, Delphi is unable to announce specific contract terms for individual
programs at this time.
    
         Delphi's Asia-Pacific non-consolidated sales reached more than $2.1
billion in 2000 and sales growth is expected to exceed 10 percent in 2001.
Sales of $3.2 billion are forecast in the region by the end of 2003, according
to J.T. Battenberg, Delphi chairman, CEO and president.

    "Delphi's presence in the Asia Pacific region continues to increase, and
we are gaining brand recognition and market share," Battenberg said.  "Our
sales in the region increased by double digits last year, compared to 1999 and
we expect to continue this growth rate as we deepen the level of technology
sold and manufactured here."

    In an effort to diversify its customer base and expand its regional
components and systems offerings, Delphi continues to focus on the development
of business with Asian original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as well as
transplant operations, and is finding success in the region.

    "Delphi is constantly striving to grow share in the automotive industry,
as well as in new non-automotive regional markets," said Choon Chon,
president, Delphi Automotive Systems, Asia Pacific.  "Delphi has created many
of the automotive industry's leading technologies and is working hard to
exceed Asia Pacific customer needs with innovations.  These are to improve
fuel economy, achieve lower emissions, and improve vehicle performance while
increasing vehicle safety," he said.
