On basis of type, polycarbonate segment is anticipated to account for a major share of global automotive foldable roof system market during 2018-2030. Polycarbonate based foldable roofs are known for their high impact resistance and superior optical clarity as compared with other materials used in manufacturing such roofs. On basis of application, passenger vehicle segment is anticipated to account for majority share of global automotive foldable roof system market during 2018-2030 owing to rising demand from developed countries such as U.S., Germany, Japan etc.
Product Definition:
An automotive foldable roof system is a type of convertible roof system found in automobiles. It allows the driver and passengers to retract the roof into the car's body, typically by folding it lengthwise along its spine, thereby increasing headroom and weather protection when not in use.
Polycarbonate:
Polycarbonate (PC) is a thermoplastic polymer, which can be processed by injection molding, extrusion and blow molding. It has high impact resistance & better optical clarity as compared to other plastics. Polycarbonate is used in automotive applications for manufacturing roof systems of vehicles including SUVs and luxury cars on account of its properties such as low weight & cost effectiveness along with high rigidity & strength.
PU Composite Material:
PU composite material is a combination of Polyurethane and Carbon. It has high impact resistance, wear & tear resistance, lightweight and excellent strength-to-weight ratio. These properties make it suitable for use in automotive applications such as under the hood components or engine covers where weight is an important factor.
PU composite materials are also used in sun visors, interior trims & dashboards along with exterior body panels to reduce overall vehicle weight which results into better fuel efficiency.
Application Insights:
The passenger vehicle application segment accounted for the largest share of over 70.0% in 2017. The demand is expected to be high for this segment as it provides a comfortable ride to passengers by reducing the heat generated by sunlight directly onto them. This also helps reduce interior temperature and provide an improved driving experience, which is likely to propel market growth over the forecast period.
Foldable roofs are widely used in commercial vehicles as they offer cost-effective solutions and help improve fuel efficiency and operational efficiency of commercial vehicles, thereby lowering their overall operating costs, which will have a positive impact on industry growth over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of key automotive manufacturers, coupled with government initiatives encouraging new investments, is likely to drive demand in this region. In 2016, China launched a national program called 16+1 Initiative that encourages foreign companies to establish their manufacturing facilities in the country. This initiative was introduced to attract more investment and create jobs for skilled labor force across various sectors including automotive.
Europe also held a significant market share owing to high demand from passenger vehicles segment owing mainly on increased sales of premium cars such as Mercedes Benz C-Class and BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo since 2015.
The North American regional market was valued at USD X million in 2017.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for luxury cars: The global automotive foldable roof system market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 7% during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for luxury cars, which offer features such as foldable roofs.
- Rising disposable income: Another key growth driver for the global automotive foldable roof system market is rising disposable income, especially in developing countries such as China and India. This is resulting in an increase in the number of consumers who can afford luxury cars with advanced features such as foldable roofs.
- Technological advancements: The development of new and innovative technologies has been a major factor driving growth in the global automotive foldable roof system market over the past few years. These technological advancements are helping manufacturers to develop better and more efficient systems that are capable of meeting consumer demands effectively.
