Passenger Car Aerodynamic Components Market Analysis
Europe has set an aggressive target to vehicle manufacturers for carbon dioxide emission mitigation. In 2021, Europe's vehicle fleet will have to arrive at an average of 95 grams per kilometer (g/km) per vehicle. After achieving to firmly pass the 2015 130g/km target by most of the OEMs, the new 95g/km aim by 2021 is expected to be much more laborious to reach, mainly if vehicle manufacturers keep advancing at the same pace as they did during the 2008-2014 period. If Nissan, Volvo, Toyota, and Groupe PSA are heading by the example, favorable powertrain mix with either hybrid or diesel by the likes of Hyundai, General Motors, Fiat, and Honda will have to adapt fast to comply with the CO2 emission reduction to meet the target before 2025. With the necessity to reach the emission regulation set by the government, automakers are expected to rely heavily on more efficient aerodynamic designs to minimize drag and reduce carbon emission.
Passenger Car Aerodynamic Components Market Overview
Aerodynamics play a important role in defining the range of vehicle from an fuel-powered vehicle to electric vehicle. Since it directly affects the energy utilized by a vehicle to overcome air resistance. GFEI (Global Fuel Economy Initiative ) has launched a various polocies from which countries can work towards enhancing the fuel economy. Engines, powertrains and aerodynamics, acts as an vital factor in fuel economy enhancement. Besides, switching to alternate fuel sources such as promoting zero-emission and electric vehicles are initiatives taken towards fuel economy enhancement. thus, growing concern of fuel economy may drive the aerodynamic components market.

Passenger Car Aerodynamic Components Market Drivers and Opportunities
Growing demand for electric vehicles
Aerodynamic drag or wind resistance is considered to be of prime concern in vehicle design. The other vital issues are vehicle weight & fuel efficiency. The 21st century, in particular, has observed refinement in vehicle design in terms of the problems relating to aerodynamics. It is worth remarking that a reduction of one count of drag, i.e., ACD = 0.1, explicates an improvement of the mileage of 2.60 km/liter.
It is also worth noting from the statistics given by the Department of Energy (DOE) that 16% of the energy produced in the USA is consumed to overcome the drag of road vehicles. The Global scenario is similar. Therefore, there is an enormous scope for improving the aerodynamics of cars to conserve depleting oil reserves. The aerodynamic design of cars is critical as it undeviatingly affects the stability and fuel economy in motion. Therefore, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the external aerodynamics of passenger cars, which are nearer to bluff bodies, and the flow over them is complex owing to their nonlinear and stochastic nature. Also, the Auto industry has seen a perpetual increase in the level of global competition. The increase in the complexity of vehicle design and content has led to time-consuming and expensive development processes. The high cost and long gestation period imply a notable risk for the automaker. On the contrary, it is clear that technology will play an ever-increasing role as the basis of this global competition, requiring high-quality products that are safe to use and economical to design and manufacture.
Developing Active Aerodynamic Systems for Economy Vehicles
Active aerodynamic systems for economy cars ranging from Class A/B, C, and D are expected to propose a massive opportunity for the market's growth. Active aerodynamic systems are significantly costlier to implement than passive systems. However, the advantages of active systems negate the usefulness of a passive system in economy cars. A passive system in an economy car can provide better handling with the loss of fuel economy as well as provide better fuel economy with the loss of better driving dynamics. For instance, a rear spoiler in a Class C vehicle would provide better handling and driving dynamics but with a cost of fuel economy owing to the downforce created by the spoiler. However, with an active rear spoiler, the vehicle can offer better fuel economy as well as better handling as per the driving conditions. Thus, developing cost-effective active aerodynamic systems is expected to provide a wide array of opportunities for the aerodynamic components market.
