Marelli

Marelli — fails on viability, not capability (the study's selection tests: (a) real automotive presence, (b) real moulded thermoplastic-parts capability, (c) concrete, dated AI capability). Marelli (lighting, interiors — real moulded-parts businesses) filed voluntary Chapter 11 on June 11, 2025 (~$4.9bn funded debt, 80% lender support). A company restructuring its balance sheet is not a near-term engineering-AI buyer, and its capability map may change ownership; excluded on viability risk, to be re-vetted post-emergence.
