CTS Car Top Systems (CTS) is a supplier of convertible top and retractable hardtop modules.
CTS was founded as a Tier-1 supplier in 1995 as a 50/50 joint venture between Daimler-Benz and Porsche. After DaimlerChrysler had sold all of its shares to Porsche in September 2003, Porsche sold all of CTS to Magna in November 2005. Effective August 5, 2026, Magna transferred ownership of the CTS business to the German Private Equity Mutares. The company now operates as a standalone business within the Mutares portfolio.[1]
