Market Insights

As the controlled shutdown increases automotive safety and promotes handling, making operation smoother than manual-based locking systems, a technological change from locking systems to automated technologies is also expected. As customers prefer remotely controlled devices, the vehicle OEMs now sell the automotive power closure system for remote control at a reasonable price, thereby making the use of the footprint of the automotive closure market feasible. In the coming years, the tendency for greater safety and ease of use would push the demand for automotive power closure. In addition, the integrated ignition cum power closure system has further allowed the demand for automotive power closure to expand with the advent of electric vehicles. Due to its high use of various components such as the side door, power sliding door, power convertible roof and power sunroof, the automotive retrofit category is expected to have a major share in traditional vehicles. One of the factors that impede the growth in the auto power closure market is the high costs of auto power closure in comparison to manually operated traditional systems.

North America, due to the large fleet of vehicles and the customized automotive trend in the country, is projected to have a prominent share. According to the OICA (International Association of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers), Asia Pacific has nearly one-third of the automobile industry, which forecasts that the region has a prominent position on the automobile closure market in the projected years. Europe is considered to introduce new automotive technologies at an early level, in particular where it applies to rising the safety of vehicles. This is also motivated by stringent public policies and growing customer awareness of luxury vehicle technology. The need for auto power closure in the area is expected to drive these factors. Compared with other regions, the Middle East and North Africa market for automotive power closure is expected to slow growth as automotive manufacturers in the region are less active.
