This is influencing automakers towards investing in the R&D of lightweight materials to manufacture the exterior and interior parts/components of the vehicle. This reduces the overall weight of the vehicle, in turn, improving its fuel efficiency. According to Superlight-Car, Germany, around one-third of total fuel consumption by passenger cars depends on weight. For instance, weight reduction of the vehicle by 100 kg is expected to save 0.3 to 0.5 liters of fuel for every 100 km drive.
Owing to increasing automotive production, especially in developing Asia-Pacific countries such as India and China, consumption of automotive composites has witnessed steady growth in the recent past. In 2013, there were 800 vehicles per 1,000 people in the U.S. compared to 600 vehicles per 1,000 people in Japan, 80 cars per 1,000 people in China, and 25 vehicles per 1,000 people in India.
Asia-Pacific was the largest market for automotive composites in 2014, accounting for 50.8% market share, followed by Europe and North America, with 22.7% and 15.5% market shares respectively. The Asia-Pacific market is expected to account for 52.4% by 2022. Rising domestic automotive production, especially in developing countries such as India and China, is expected to boost the Asia Pacific automotive composite market. The Europe market is expected to lose market share to reach 21.9% by 2022. However, the automotive composite market in North America is expected to marginally gain market share to reach 15.9% by 2022.
