EBC Brakes launched 'CC Series Carbon Ceramic Rotor Conversions' and new 'Apollo' brake kits for 'Suzuki Swift Sport' models. The British manufacturer's innovative units feature lightweight billet alloy hubs with their trademark Square-Drive system bobbins, offering a cost-effective alternative to expensive carbon ceramic replacements.

The new four-piston Apollo calipers with 330x28mm floating discs provide direct fitment upgrades for both 'Z32' and 'Z33 Swift Sport' variants. These 100% British-made components utilize European cast and machined rotor rings, paired with stainless-steel hardware, in a true, fully floating design.

The launch addresses the growing performance modification market where enthusiasts seek premium upgrades without premium prices. As car manufacturers increasingly equip vehicles with expensive carbon ceramic systems as standard, EBC's solution provides accessible performance enhancement for the expanding community of driving enthusiasts seeking track-ready capabilities.
