Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) across Europe are working towards providing improved safety and comfort to consumers through various technologies. Electric power steering (EPS) has been a success since its introduction in developed markets and is gaining preference in emerging markets. European consumers in higher segments are increasingly ...

Despite being the largest automotive market in the world, the ADAS market is in its nascent stage in China with most major ADAS technologies attracting less than 10% penetration rates in the market. However, the future looks positive with clear market potential with the regional ADAS market expected to grow six fold in revenue by 2020. Vehicle safe...

With increased fuel prices and dynamic consumer needs, the market for all-wheel drive (AWD) systems for passenger vehicles is challenged on various fronts. To counteract market challenges, regional original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) adopt various strategies regarding their driveline portfolios for specific vehicle segments. This research servi...

Vehicle safety and driver comfort attract tremendous interest within the automotive industry, with legislations to touch every aspect of safety from avoiding collisions to pedestrian security. Given that autonomous driving is a real possibility, ADAS is expected to take centre-stage for chassis and safety systems in an automobile. This will channel...

The automotive industry is currently focusing on sensor and vision-based solutions capable of minimising errors caused through driver input in speed zones. Current technologies are confined to premium segments, mainly due to cost effectiveness and public acceptance. But with the onset of legislative measures mandating some of the ADAS applications,...

Electronic braking technology is on verge of eliminating vacuum boosters in an effort to improve the overall vehicle efficiency and braking performance. The current trend of electronically modulating mechanical system, vacuumless braking will be the next step towards bridging the gap between braking technology used on non EVs and fully electric veh...

The aim of this study is to research, analyse, and forecast the tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) market in Europe and gauge the impact of emerging technologies in direct, indirect, and hybrid TPMS. A consistent level of technology mix of both direct and indirect systems is expected from 2012 to 2020. The trend is predicted to shift towards i...

The purpose of this study is to research, analyze, and forecast the North American market for tire pressure monitoring systems. The study covers the emerging technologies in direct, indirect, and hybrid tire pressure monitoring systems as well as the impact on growth and performance. In addition, the study covers market drivers and restraints. Dire...

With yearly changes in NCAP initiatives, a lack of common requirements exists from one region to another. While the same OEMs operate in multiple regions, usually with the same model of vehicles, different NCAP ratings are given. OEMs must comply with various rating requirements for the same vehicle. Considering that all regions of the world share ...
