Report overview
Segments covered: vehicle type, application, lighting technology, sales channel. Regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific.
Some of the major factors driving the growth of this market are the increasing adoption of advanced lighting in vehicles, strict government regulations on lighting for better visibility and safety, and increasing automobile production in emerging economies. In addition, the high demand for adaptive lighting systems in passenger and entry-level SUVs is expected to offer significant opportunities for market growth. However, the high cost of LED can restrain the growth of this market to some extent.
Market dynamics
1 factors across 1 forceStringent Government Regulations on Lighting for Better Visibility and Safety are Expected to Drive Market Growth
Lighting remains a significant component in vehicles. Apart from adding aesthetic looks to the interior and exterior parts of a vehicle, lighting plays an important role in vehicle safety. Vehicle lighting is essential, especially while traveling on congested highways. All automotive lighting of a vehicle is subject to country-specific legal regulations to ensure safe driving.
Governments around the world are concerned about road accidents. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), road traffic collisions kill 1.3 million people per year. The majority of countries lose 3% of their GDP due to road accidents. Therefore, enhancing driving conditions is vital, which can be achieved partly by improving the lighting system. Using vehicle lights helps the driver illuminate the lane and recognize the road, obstacles and traffic signs.
Automotive lighting is already mandatory in several countries across the globe. For instance, in the U.K., vehicles traveling from sunset to sunrise must have front and rear position lights, end outline lights and side marker lights switched on. All the obligatory lights (except rear fog lights) must be illuminated during the hours of darkness. Similarly, Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) are mandatory for all two-wheelers in India to increase road safety and reduce road accidents involving two-wheelers. This type of regulatory regulation is likely to impact the growth of the global automotive lighting market.
