Global Market Review Of Vehicle Electrical Wiring Systems - Forecasts To 2013Published by: just-auto Published: Dec. 31, 2007 - 41 Pages Table of Contents
AbstractThere are a number of forces driving the electrical and electronic distribution systems (EEDS) market, including cost pressures, safety and environmental concerns. An auto executive told just-auto that:The major driving force is the need to improve fuel consumption and cut emissions. We are seeing more and more hybrid and electric vehicles supporting this trend. Both of these trends can be only be solved by the increasing use of electronics. So, as hybrid vehicles make tough demands on EEDS, these have significant effects upon the architecture. The feature content of new cars is also increasing year on year, as another auto executive told us: About 50% of electrical and electronic comfort and convenience features that are available in a modern car today were simply not around ten years ago. Features like multimedia systems, telephones, rear seat entertainment, remote keyless entry and tyre pressure monitoring systems all consume more energy. We must therefore look at novel, cost-effective ways in which to integrate those new features. This fourth edition of our popular Global market review of automotive electrical wiring systems addresses these trends, reviews the key market drivers for vehicle electrical distribution systems, and offers updated market analysis. The report provides market share estimates for vehicle wire harnesses, as well as product fitment forecasts for vehicle wiring harnesses by value worldwide, and by major car-producing region, namely Europe, North America, China and Japan. We take a brief look at the emerging markets, and include information on the market players, such as INTERDIS and Yazaki Corp with comment from executives also provided. Chapter 1: Introduction - A brief history of the sector. Chapter 2: The market - Provides market share estimates for vehicle wire harnesses in Western Europe, North America and Japan, along with forecasts for 2003 through to 2013 showing market value of wire harness by application, (engine harness, body harness, engine room harness, roof harness, floor harness, rear harness and cowl harness). Chapter 3: Technical review - The modern vehicle electrical system is becoming more and more complex. During the 1960s, an average vehicle electrical system contained about 200 meters of cable. Today, this amounts to about one mile. In this chapter we define the elements of electrical wiring systems, and take a look at recent innovations in the sector, such as Delphi's recently developed ultra-thin wall halogen-free cable and waferised joint connectors. An exclusive interview with John Bailey, managing director at motorsport specialists BERU F1 Systems is also included, in which he talks about the company's proprietary Wire in Composite (WiC) technology. Chapter 4: Manufacturers - In this final chapter we provide manufacturer profiles for Alcoa Electrical and Electronic Solutions, Delphi Corp, Lear Corp, Leoni, Sumitomo Wiring Systems and Yazaki Corp. Information includes a brief company history, their products, customers, mergers and acquisitions and worldwide facilities and operations. Get Full Details About This Report >> |
