Global Automotive Lightweight Material Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029

Analyse et taille du marché des matériaux légers pour l'automobile

Les matériaux légers pour automobiles jouent un rôle important dans l'amélioration de la consommation de carburant des véhicules . Ces matériaux améliorent également la sécurité et les performances globales du véhicule. Le rendement énergétique d'un véhicule s'améliore à mesure que son poids diminue, car il faut moins d'énergie pour accélérer un objet plus léger qu'un objet plus lourd. L'utilisation de matériaux légers pour automobiles peut améliorer la consommation de carburant d'un véhicule de 6 à 8 % avec une réduction de poids de 10 %.

Portée et segmentation du marché des matériaux légers pour l'automobile

Définition du marché

Les matériaux légers pour l'automobile sont principalement utilisés pour remplacer la fonte et les composants en acier traditionnels dans divers types de véhicules tels que les véhicules électriques, rechargeables et hybrides. Ils sont utilisés dans les éléments structurels qui permettent aux véhicules d'être équipés de dispositifs de sécurité avancés, de systèmes électroniques intégrés et de systèmes de contrôle des émissions. L'utilisation de matériaux légers dans les automobiles réduit le poids de leurs systèmes d'alimentation, tels que les moteurs électriques et les batteries, tout en augmentant l'efficacité et l'autonomie tout électrique. L'acier à haute résistance, les alliages d'aluminium, les composites polymères, la fibre de carbone, les alliages de magnésium et d'autres matériaux légers sont couramment utilisés dans l'industrie automobile.

Conducteurs

• Avantage concurrentiel en matière d'augmentation de l'efficacité énergétique

Face à la dégradation rapide de l'environnement, les constructeurs automobiles du monde entier développent des matériaux plus légers et plus fonctionnels pour améliorer le rendement énergétique des véhicules. L'utilisation de matériaux légers permet aux constructeurs d'améliorer le rendement des véhicules, car la réduction du poids d'une voiture entraîne une amélioration significative de la consommation de carburant. Par conséquent, la hausse des prix du carburant accroît la demande de véhicules plus légers.

• Réglementation sur les émissions des véhicules

Government mandated emission control is a major factor driving the adoption of lightweight vehicles. Emission criteria differ from one region to the next. These are based on vehicle size in the United States and Canada, and thus require the incorporation of aluminium in the vehicle body. In the rest of the world, these criteria are based on vehicle weight, which necessitates the use of high-strength steel. Toyota, General Motors, Volkswagen Group, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Bavarian Motor Works, Renault, and Tata Motors are among the major automakers whose upcoming electric vehicles are expected to boost demand for lightweight materials during the forecast period.

Opportunities

• Research and developments activities

Investment in R&D activities has increased sales across the industry as several major players seek to reduce the cost of these materials while increasing their recyclability.

Restraints

• High cost will challenge the market

The cost of lightweight materials is prohibitively expensive. Carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) and glass fibre reinforced plastics (GFRP) are two examples of lightweight materials that are more expensive than traditional materials like steel and aluminium.

COVID-19 Impact on Automotive Lightweight Material Market

The coronavirus pandemic has brought the world to a halt. Due to decreased production and demand, business activities have experienced a downturn in the form of dwindling sales. The same is true for the market for automotive lightweight materials. Automotive lightweight materials are commonly used in automotive applications. As a result of disrupted supply chains, the ongoing pandemic has resulted in a decline in all industrial activities. Extended lockdowns in various countries have hampered the production of automotive lightweight materials in recent months, as key manufacturing units and factories have been closed. Even after the lockdowns are lifted, it will take at least a few quarters to restore normal production. As a result, declining demand from allied industries in the second quarter of 2020 will have a long-term impact on the global automotive lightweight material market's growth.
