Description

The Germany automotive lubricants market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 2.70% in the forecast period of 2025-2034. The market is being aided by the increasing vehicle manufacturing in the country.

Key Trends in the Market

Automotive lubricant is a type of substance or oil that is applied on parts of a vehicle to reduce friction, corrosion, rust, wear, and heat. It also aids in cooling down the engine and cleaning the automotive parts.
  • The increasing focus on reducing carbon emissions from the automotive sector is one of the key Germany automotive lubricants market trends. Lubricants can decrease friction and optimise energy consumption, hence reducing fuel consumption of vehicles.
  • Rising environmental awareness is expected to surge the demand for bio-based or sustainable lubricants that have a lower environmental impact as compared to conventional petroleum-based lubricants. Moreover, the introduction of stringent regulations by the German government to reduce dependency on fossil fuels is driving the Germany automotive lubricants market demand.
  • Increasing production of electric or hybrid vehicles in the country is driving the demand for specialised lubricants that can meet the specific requirements of these vehicles and provide prolonged protection to their components and parts.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
