Segmentation

By Color

• White: The fastest growing segment of this market, white LED fog lamps have shown the best results at enhancing visibility.

• Yellow: This segment is seeing limited use due to a lack of scientific backing into the advantages of using yellow fog lights over white fog lights.

• Others: Fog lights used in the rear usually are red in color due to its elongated wavelength.

By Position

• Front: The largest segment, front fog auto lights dominate the market as they ensure active visibility for the driver and not passive visibility. This segment is predicted to dominate the market.

• Rear: Typically used in conjunction with front LED fog lamps, rear lamps are important to prevent multiple car collisions and for nighttime driving.

By Sales Channel

• OEM: The larger segment in the market, OEM’s are the top drivers for LED fog lamps in developed countries.

• Aftermarket: A very fast-growing segment, it is most prominent in developing countries and is used primarily for retrofitting vehicles without LED fog lamps or to install newer models.

By Vehicle Type

• Passenger car: With over 70 million passenger cars created in 2018 alone, this segment is the largest for the LED Fog Lamp market.

• Light commercial vehicle: Light commercial vehicles are now required to have fog lamps if they operate in certain areas of Europe that sees a lot of fog. This directive is driving the market for this segment.

• Heavy Commercial vehicle: These vehicles need to exercise the utmost safety when they ply the roads and are usually fitted with both, front and rear LED fog lamps. The safety regulations for heavy commercial vehicles is very stringent and their motility is directly impacted by the use if these devices.

By Region

• North America: A very large market due to the persistence of foggy conditions throughout Canada and most parts of the US, this market grows directly in proportion to the number of vehicles being purchased.

• Europe: Northern Europe sees foggy conditions for prolonged periods with Southern Europe seeing spells of fog for a few days each year, necessitating the use of LED fog lamps.

• Asia-pacific: The fastest growing market for Automobile Fog Light due to their better penetration and affordable costs.

• Rest of the World: Limited fog related weather in most of this region and limited road infrastructure makes this the smallest market for LED Fog lamps.
