One of the key drivers for the growth of automotive lightweight material market is the increase in fuel efficiency achieved by the use of lightweight materials in the automotive. The emergence of strict regulations by the government for the control of carbon dioxide emissions, is leading to the increased adoption of lightweight materials for use in automobiles, thereby driving the growth of the market. However, the growth of this market is expected to be restrained by higher pricing of lightweight materials in automobiles such as carbon fibres and others.

Over the past decade, it has been experienced that the prices of crude oil per barrel is increasing very rapidly and also the availability the crude oil is decreasing day by day. Due to these factors, the mind-set of large pool of population is shifting their preference towards Automotive Lightweight Material. In the last 3 to 4 years, the demand for Automotive Lightweight Material in the United States is rapidly increasing and seen around 70% of year-over-year growth in the sales. Along with the United States, Norway has also put a step ahead and has shifted more focus towards Automotive Lightweight Material. The growth of Automotive Lightweight Material is increasing across the globe and since 2014, the sales have witnessed significant growth off late.

In automotive industry, pricing factor has always been a point of discussion before purchase. Here, the discussion is of Automotive Lightweight Material such as electric cars, pickups, trucks and others. As per the market statistics, the sales of Automotive Lightweight Material is rising very rapidly in developed countries such as the US, China, Germany, UK, Norway and others. All these countries are developed and has very good economy with healthy disposable income. As a result, the sales has increased. But moving towards the developing and undeveloped countries, the high prices of Automotive Lightweight Material has become a major hindrance for market growth. Countries such as India, Indonesia and Brazil consumes a large pool of population but still the trend of Automotive Lightweight Material has not come into pace.

(Luxembourg), ThyssenKrupp AG (Germany), BASF SE (Germany), PPG Industries, Inc (U.S.), Covestro AG (Germany), Owens Corning (U.S.), Lyondellbasell N.V. (U.S.), Novelis .Inc.,(U.S.) and others are some of the prominent players profiled in MRFR Analysis and are at the forefront of competition in the Global Automotive Lightweight Material Market.

Competitive Snapshot:

The global Automotive Lightweight Material market is characterized by the presence of many global, regional, and local vendors. The market is highly competitive with all the players competing to gain market share. Intense competition, rapid advances in technology, frequent changes in government policies, and environmental regulations are key factors that confront market growth. In addition, in-house research and development capabilities, global footprint network, material offerings, R&D investments, and strong client base have become the key areas to gain an edge over the competitors.

The vendors compete based on cost, product quality, reliability, and aftermarket service. It is crucial for the vendors to provide cost-efficient and high-quality Automotive Lightweight Material services, in order to survive and succeed in an intensely competitive market environment.

The vendors with better technical and financial resources can develop innovative products that render the competitors' products obsolete and non-competitive even before they are launched, or costs are recovered. Therefore, vendors have to develop new technologies and stay abreast of emerging technologies that could affect the continuing competitiveness of their product lines in the market. The competitive environment in the market is likely to intensify further due to an increase in product/service extensions, technological innovations, and M&A.
