The European brakes pads and rotors aftermarket will be driven by the growing age of vehicles and the rising prices. The commoditised market will register flat but stable growth; the sale of premium brake pads will be higher than brake rotors due to the scope of differentiation. The overall prices of brake pads will rise due to the demand for premium brake pads, whereas that of brake rotors will remain flat. However, the Euro crisis will translate into higher demand for budget-line brake components. Overall, rising prices will drive manufacturer level revenue from 2015 to 2021.
