Abstract

just-auto estimates that the OE (original equipment) starter battery market across Europe, Japan, North America and China was worth some EUR856m in 2007, and has a potential to exceed EUR1bn in 2014.

The global automotive battery market is highly competitive. Battery makers compete on price, quality, technical innovation, service and warranty, and consolidation among the major battery manufacturers continues to shape the industry.

A number of other factors are also shaping the lead-acid automotive starter battery market. Some are market driven, whilst others are outside manufacturers’ control. With a significant rise in the cost per metric ton of lead over the past year, the price of oil driving up the cost of polypropylene used in battery manufacture, and imported batteries flooding in from emerging economies, they continue to pose a serious challenge to European manufacturers.

This fourth edition of the automotive batteries report provides an extensive overview of the global market, with top-level product fitment forecasts showing how the OE market for lead-acid starter batteries will evolve in Europe, Japan and North America.

Forecasts also show the OE, OES (original equipment supply), and independent aftermarket for lead-acid starter batteries for passenger cars and commercial vehicles from 2004 through to 2014 for selected regions.

Key trends, and recent innovations in starter batteries and batteries for alternative drive systems are discussed, and comment from executives, such as Paul Matarewicz, managing director of the renamed UK subsidiary, Johnson Controls Batteries and VW group research chief Juergen Leohold are included.

Chapter 1: Introduction - A quick look at the number of factors shaping the lead-acid automotive starter battery market.

Chapter 2: The market - This extensive chapter provides an overview of market trends, and includes comment from industry executives. The major market players are investigated and coverage of the emerging markets, China, Eastern Europe and India are offered.

Forecasts show how the OE market for lead-acid starter batteries will evolve in Europe, Japan and North America from 2004 through to 2014, and market share for OEM, OES and the independent aftermarket for lead-acid starter batteries (in passenger cars and light vehicles) for selected regions are also included.

Chapter 3: Technical review - In this chapter we define the elements of starter batteries, and batteries for alternative drive systems, such as lead-acid, nickel, and lithium-ion. Recent innovations in the starter batteries, as well as advanced battery technology market are investigated, and an exclusive Q&A with Mark Verbrugge, General Motors’ representative member of the US Advanced Battery Consortium Management Committee, discussing the state of play with advanced batteries is also included.

Chapter 4: Manufacturers - Learn more about the main manufacturers latest movements with these company profiles. Read about Exide Technologies, Fiamm, GS Yuasa Corp and Johnson Controls’ customers, products, facilities, revenues, and mergers and acquisitions.
