Application Insights:
Passenger vehicles accounted for a share of over 80.0% in 2017 and are expected to maintain their dominance over the forecast period. Automotive polycarbonate glazin is used in various components of a vehicle, such as front windshield, side windows, rear windshields and sunroofs. The lightweight nature of the product reduces fuel consumption by increasing aerodynamic efficiency which aids in reducing pollution. These factors are anticipated to drive demand from passenger vehicles segment during the forecast period.
Commercial vehicles include trucks, buses and other commercial cars that transport goods on highways or between cities where railways cannot reach due to rugged topography or lack of roadways.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share of over 40% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth owing to increasing demand from developing countries such as India and China. In addition, rising disposable income levels coupled with a growing population in these regions will drive the market further. Moreover, government initiatives encouraging people to use public transport instead of personal vehicles are anticipated to boost industry growth over the forecast period.
Europe was valued at USD X million in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period on account of stringent regulations regarding fuel economy along with CO2 emissions by regulatory bodies like European Union5ECE/TRANSPARENCYand German Government6BMW GmbH mandated for all new cars since January 2018 which has resulted into increased demand for lightweight materials used in vehicle construction that improve vehicular efficiency while maintaining safety standards required by law are likely contribute toward industry growth over next eight years).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for lightweight vehicles: The automotive industry is witnessing a shift towards the production of lightweight vehicles in order to improve fuel efficiency. This is resulting in an increase in the demand for polycarbonate glazing as it is a lighter and stronger material as compared to traditional glass.
- Growing popularity of electric and hybrid vehicles: The popularity of electric and hybrid vehicles is growing at a rapid pace, owing to their superior fuel efficiency as compared to traditional gasoline-powered cars. Polycarbonate glazing helps reduce weight and improve the aerodynamics of these types of vehicles, thus aiding in improved performance.
- Stringent safety regulations: Governments across the globe are implementing stringent safety regulations for automobiles with an aim to reduce road fatalities caused by accidents involving cars and other motorized vehicles. Polycarbonate glazing offers superior protection against impact damage when compared with traditional glass, making it an ideal choice for automotive applications subjected to such regulations.
- Rising consumer preference for luxury cars: There has been a surge in demand for luxury cars over the past few years, especially from emerging markets such as China and India . This has led automakers to focus on offering high-end models that come equipped with features like advanced infotainment systems, luxurious interiors, etc., which require polycarbonate glazing for their implementation.. 5) Technological advancements: Automotive manufacturers are constantly striving towards developing new technologies that can help them produce better performing and more efficient cars .
