Their Icon series windshield wipers are surprisingly decent. Project Farm on YouTube did a shootout video a while back with one hell of a testing rig.

My only complaint on them is that the cover that goes over the wiper arm hook is really flimsy and has a tendency to come loose and flop around. I’ve had the same set on my car for going on four or five years now and while it’s definitely time to change them out, both covers have been fucky since less than a year since installation. I think the plastic just doesn’t tolerate sub-zero temps very well, least of all when you accidentally thwack them with a plastic ice scraper.

I just put new spark plugs in my car. I used NGKs which were cheaper and have a way better quality. I had the option for Bosch ones but they were pricier and the engine already had NGKs in them so I stick with what I know works.

Bosch, the world’s biggest automotive supplier by revenue, will cut positions related to automated driving and car steering products in Germany

Softening robo driving market as it is probably infeasible at the moment and unsustainable.

Bosch were pioneers in mass produced EFI and DI systems and ECUs more generally so I think that their edge has probably been eroded by competition.

One of the coolest things I’ve seen that is slowly being pushed to more vehicles is something called the iBooster which replaces the traditional vacuum brake booster with a small electric motor to provide the power in power brakes.
