Market Analysis and Insights : Global Vehicle Lightweighting Market
The vehicle lightweighting market is expected to witness market growth at a rate of 8.5% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028. Data Bridge Market Research report on vehicle lightweighting market provides analysis and insights regarding the various factors expected to be prevalent throughout the forecast period while providing their impacts on the market’s growth. The growing government initiatives for vehicle weight reduction are escalating the growth of vehicle lightweighting market.
Vehicle lightweighting refers to a process of replacing heavy-weight materials present in the vehicles with the light-weight similar characteristics materials. The process does not compensate on the durability and the strength of the vehicle. Lightweighting requires careful consideration and design analysis for identifying and replacing the right components from the right places with the appropriate materials.
The rise in demand for lightweight material from the automotive industry, the increasing emphasis on fuel economy and the high need for innovative materials to help reduce vehicle weight and achieve fuel efficiency and carbon emission targets are the major factors driving the vehicle lightweighting market. The surge in the fuel costs and distance traveled, increasing need for fuel efficiency and high manufacturing of lightweight vehicles to reduce CO2 emissions because of the implementation of stringent regulations caused by exhaust emissions accelerates the vehicle lightweighting market growth. The inclination towards composite materials over steel or aluminum for cost efficiency of these highly automated production cycles that are known to reduce vehicle weight and the changes over products and manufacturing procedures to meet the emission criteria influence the vehicle lightweighting market. Additionally, expansion of automotive industry, stringent emission and fuel economy regulations, high production and sales of automobile vehicles and surge in disposable income of people positively affect the vehicle lightweighting market. Furthermore, upward trend of vehicle electrification and emerging economies extends profitable opportunities to the vehicle lightweighting market players in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028.
On the other hand, high cost associated with the material including carbon fiber and glass composites, and processes are factors expected to obstruct the vehicle lightweighting market growth. The concerns regarding the maintenance of lightweight material are projected to challenge the vehicle lightweighting market in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028.
