At GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco, we have always strived to blend our long history of quality and expertise with cutting-edge innovation that keeps us moving forward. We’ve streamlined our branding and our packaging for a bold new look that simplifies the process of selecting the parts that best fit your needs—but rest assured that the parts inside the packaging are the same quality products you’ve come to know and trust. We’ve broken down our premium portfolio of Original Equipment and aftermarket parts into three tiers: GM Genuine Parts or ACDelco Original Equipment, ACDelco Gold, and ACDelco Silver. Read on to learn more about each tier.
GM ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT
Now identified by blue packaging, GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco Original Equipment are the true OE parts installed during production or validated by GM, for GM vehicles – designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards and backed by General Motors.
ACDELCO GOLD
Formerly referred to as our “Professional” line, ACDelco Gold parts are the high-quality alternative to OE parts, manufactured to meet GM expectations for fit, form, and function and backed by General Motors.
ACDELCO SILVER
Formerly referred to as our “Advantage” line, ACDelco Silver parts are a quality high-value option for most makes and models, backed by General Motors.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Our new packaging is designed with simple visual cues that make it easy to find and select your perfect parts. We’ve broken down the elements of our new design below for a closer look.
(Also, keep in mind that as we transition to our new design, some of our products are still in the current packaging—whichever design appears on your product’s box, it will always contain the high-quality GM parts you expect.) Click here to learn more about counterfeit parts.
