Strategic Insight of Electrically Actuated Power Steering for Light and Medium Commercial Vehicles in Europe
Strategic Insight of Electrically Actuated Power Steering for Light and Medium Commercial Vehicles in Europe
Half of LCVs and MCVs to Offer Electrically Actuated Steering by 2021
30-Sep-2015
Europe
Description
Most of the commercial vehicles operating in the light (LCV) and medium (MCV) range are predominantly steered by hydraulic power steering (HPS). Very few LCVs use an electrified steering solution, while none of the MCVs are able to use electrified steering because of the front axle. This research looks in the potential for steering electrification and the potential for add-on steering modules such as iHSA. This research is based on secondary and primary data collected from LCV and MCV OEMs active in the European market. The research covers market trends for steering electrification and OEM technology preferences as well as key conclusions, outlooks, and predictions. The base year of the study is 2014, with forecasts up to 2021.
