Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers and impact analysis
Rise in production of vehicles has driven the market of automotive door frame. Moreover, the automotive doors are replaced by laser welding separate door components instead of a single sheet of stamped metal in the past. This has benefited in reducing weight of vehicle and further propelling the automotive door frame market growth. Additionally, growing adoption of modern cab-type LCV has increased the number of side doors from two to four, further proliferating automotive door frame market. However, the cost associated with lighter material could hamper the market growth. Further, rise in expenditure on infrastructure by government and enhanced the standard of living along with technological advancements will support the growth in the coming years.
The automotive door frame market trends are as follows:
Integration of electronics in door frame
With technological advancements, the number of electronics has increased in vehicles. Features like power window, speed sensing door locks, mirror adjustment, keyless entry, and others have increased the number of components installed in the door frame, such as actuators, sensors, and operating devices. Manufacturers of automotive door frame are under continuous challenge to make arrangement for rising number of electronic components in vehicle.
Carbon reinforced thermoplastic material in door frame
Automakers are under constant pressure to reduce the weight of the car to meet the demand of fuel-efficiency of vehicle. This has made OEMs to try different types of materials in vehicle body. For instance, Audi’s aluminum door frame for its A8 model, the Porsche Panamera magnesium door frame and BMW’s i8 carbon fiber-reinforced thermoset door frame. In 2019, Honda Motor Co. launched MDX model from Acura division which consists of carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic door. Moreover, this door is 100% recyclable creating an emission-free landscape.
