Market Definition
An automotive fuel tank is an important component of an automobile engine system used to propel, store, and release pressurized fluid or gas into the engine. It is also used for venting, fuel level detection, secured filling, evaporating emissions, and avoiding fuel leakages. The efficiency of a fuel tank depends upon its complexity, size, and the material used for the industrial process. Fuel tanks are made using both plastic and metal materials. Plastic tanks are primarily used in sports-utility vehicles (SUVs), sedans, multi-purpose vehicles (MPV), and metal tanks in cross-passenger and commercial vehicles.
Europe Fuel Tank Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing demand for plastic fuel tanks
European manufacturers are substituting metal fuel tanks with plastic fuel tanks to reduce the vehicle's weight to fulfill the increasing demand and satisfy the discerning customer requirements. Plastic fuel tanks have various characteristic advantages over metal fuel tanks, which enhances their popularity in the fuel tank market. For instance, according to the 2019 statistics, in Europe, ~90% of all fuel tanks are made of plastic. As a result of this, plastic has become a more preferred material than any other material for constructing fuel tanks.
- Increasing demand for the fuel tank to reduce contamination risk
The growing demand for fuel tanks to reduce contamination risk will likely boost the market's growth during the forecast period. A fuel tank can help to lessen the risk of fuel contamination by controlling the handling and storage of fuel. An added benefit is that it gives the peace of mind of knowing that the customers have enough fuel and will not be easily contaminated. As a result of this, it boosts the market growth.
Opportunities
- Increasing agreements and partnerships between market players
Increasing agreements and partnerships between market players will likely generate ample opportunities for market growth during the forecast period. For instance, Plastic Omnium won an agreement with a German car company in 2019 to improve 350-bar hydrogen tanks. With this agreement, the company increased its supply of bus equipment, and it was the largest project in Europe for this type of vehicle. This agreement has aided the company in gaining revenue.
- Growth and expansion of the e-commerce sector
Increasing demand for commercial vehicles because of the growth of the e-commerce sector contributes to the growth of the fuel tank market during the forecast period. The construction and logistics sectors need increased infrastructure and transportation development which will result in the growth of the fuel tank market. Therefore, the growth and expansion of the e-commerce sector will likely create lucrative market growth opportunities.
Restraints/ Challenges
- High cost associated with composite fuel tanks
The high cost of composite fuel tanks, such as carbon fiber composite-based fuel tanks, will likely hamper the market's growth. Carbon fiber composite-based fuel tanks are relatively more expensive than other fuel tanks because of the cost of carbon fiber, which accounts for about 40 percent of the overall tank cost.
- Growing usage of an advanced technological system
The growing penetration of electric vehicles day-by-day in the market is a major factor restraining the fuel tank market growth. The sales of electric vehicles are also likely to increase in upcoming years because of the growing demand for zero-emission vehicles. As a result, this reduces the demand for the fuel tank factor and hampers the growth of the fuel tank market in the forecast period.
