Market Scope
Market Research Future (MRFR) expects the automotive friction brake system market 2023 to gain substantial grounds at a fast rate between 2023 and 2030 (appraisal period). MRFR also projects the market to touch a remarkable valuation of USD 45,600 Million by 2030-end. We will provide covid-19 impact analysis with the report. The COVID-19 research of the automotive friction brake system market offers an in-depth analysis post the coronavirus disease outbreak.
COVID-19 impact analysis by MRFR reveals that there has been a significant drop in vehicle sales in the space of just a few months, owing to the shutdowns across regions as well as the oil price fluctuations. Renowned automotive OEMs are adopting multiple tactics to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic on their businesses by assessing their dealerships to resume services. The short-term impact of COVID-19 in the automotive sector has led to shutting down of assembly plants in the United States (US), manufacturing interruptions across Europe and ceased export of Chinese components, in the face of the lockdown situation. Additionally, post SARS-CoV-2, the demand for commercial vehicles has significantly plummeted following the shutdown of almost every non-essential service across the globe.
Top Players
Robert Bosch GmbH, Haldex AB, TRW Automotive Holdings Corp., Federal-Mogul Corporation, Delphi Automotive PLC, Akebono Braking Industry Corporation, Brembo S.P.A, Continental AG, Halla Mando Corporation, Aisin-Seiki Co. Ltd., are some of the top players competing in the market for automotive friction brake system.
Latest Developments
April 2020
Porsche has launched carbide-tungsten-coated friction brake system that facilitates stopping power and also keeps the wheels clean. The system sprays a 0.004-inch carbide- tungsten coating on the iron discs, which helps make them five times much harder.
On the bright side, till the time a COVID-19 breakthrough is not achieved, the automotive industry can remain strong, thanks to the ongoing efforts by leading companies to curb revenue losses by adopting recovery tactics such as mergers and acquisitions and more. Despite the significant impact of the novel coronavirus on the automotive industry, online sale of vehicles can emerge as one of the growth boosters in the spark plug market.
Top Drivers and Key Restraints
Over the years, there has been a remarkable surge in the production of vehicles across the globe, which has led to a domino effect throughout the automotive brake friction market. The alarming rise in the number of accidents, given the rising number of drivers exceeding the speed limits has further bolstered the market growth. Technological innovations such as advanced brake system (ABS), electronic braking system (EBS) and regenerative braking that elevates the efficiency of the braking system can emerge as lucrative opportunities for the automotive brake friction market in the approaching years.
The market also benefits from the increasing research and development activities, resulting in the introduction of environment-friendly products that not only dissipate lower amount of heat but have enhanced mechanical properties. Another key trend gaining prevalence in the global market is the increasing focus on the electrification of vehicles, which is also giving rise to the production of light-weight vehicles and automotive brake friction products. The high demand for electric vehicles or EVs in the developing regions can translate to tremendous business growth in the following period.
A significant number of research activities are underway for coming up with better brake friction materials with the extensive use of nanomaterials, which can massively induce the growth of the automotive brake friction market during the assessment period. The increasing focus on safety among consumers and the rising focus on stringency in safety norms and preventive maintenance can also lead the market to greater heights in the years ahead.
