Parking Sensors in North America and Europe Region is Set to Witness Significant Growth

parking sensors market
A new study by Hexa Research estimated that the global Parking Sensors Market was worth more than $2,500 million in 2012. Parking sensors assist drivers in parking their vehicles and alert them in case of an obstacle. They prevent pedestrian injury. Increasing space crunch and altered dimensions of common cars are paving the way for higher demand of parking sensors.

Based on technology, Hexa Research segments the total global parking sensors market into ultrasonic and electromagnetic sensors. Ultrasonic parking sensors contributed to more than 65% of the total market share in 2012. They are likely to continue market dominance in the coming years. However, electromagnetic parking sensors will witness faster growth with a CAGR of more than 19% from 2013 to 2020. These sensors retain the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle and are self diagnostic. They also come with a maintenance system.
Approximately 80% of the market comprised of installations made by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). They offer better construction and fitment and are therefore highly preferred. These installations are priced much higher than those available in the aftermarket segment, thus contributing to higher overall revenues.


Hexa Research observed that North America, with more than 38% share, was a leading region in the global parking sensors market in 2012. The region is expected to continue its leadership in future owing to regulatory initiatives. European region will generate demand for parking sensors in future due to rising sales of top-end vehicles that are fitted with high-quality parking sensors. Asia Pacific is likely to account for the fastest rise in future and will grow at a CAGR of 20% from 2013 to 2020.

Key market operators in the global parking sensors industry are Texas Instruments, Inc., Audi, Freescale Semiconductor Ltd., Continental AG, Volkswagen, etc. The market includes both, manufacturers of parking sensors and OEMs.

The Global Automotive Coatings Market is anticipated to surpass USD 28 billion by 2024. The rising demands for coatings on account of its ability to protect vehicles against acid rain, harsh weather, and UV radiation are projected to propel market growth. Increasing consumption of UV-cured coatings due to their properties such as high chemical resistance, solvent-free formulations, and low-temperature processing is expected to boost the product demands. However, fluctuating raw material prices are likely to pose a challenge for market growth. The global market is categorized as technologies, products, applications, end-uses, and regions.

The technology sector includes waterborne, solvent-borne, powder coatings, UV-cured. The solvent-borne sector led the industry in the past few years. However, it is likely to drop its share drastically since it releases high levels of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Powder coatings are said to have the fastest growth due to their various properties like superior finish, high corrosion resistance, etc. Waterborne coatings are also likely to experience huge growth on account of their properties such as heat resistance, adhesion etc.

The product sector of the automotive coatings market comprises electrocoat, primer, clearcoat, and basecoat. The basecoat sector led the market and is projected to have significant growth during the forecast period (from 2016 to 2024). Electrocoats are likely to drive the market since they are anti-corrosion and anti-rust agents. The demands for clearcoat are estimated to grow as it provides protection against sun and UV rays.

Application-wise, the metal sector dominated the industry and it is further expected to witness huge growth in the near future. Plastic coatings are projected to be the fastest-growing application sector due to its increasing usage in automobile manufacturing as it is flexibility, lightweight, corrosion-resistant, durable, cost-effective, and recyclable.

Light vehicle OEM led the end-use sector in 2015 and it is said to experience a considerable growth during the next few years. The automotive refinish sector is likely to have rapid growth on account of growing consumer spending levels in developing economies of the APAC region.

Asia-Pacific was the dominant regional market in 2015. The region is projected to experience rapid growth with a CAGR of over 6 % over the estimated years. Europe is likely to drop its market share in the automotive refinishes sector to APAC due to lesser accident levels in the region. The Middle East & Africa will also have huge growth as a result of rising production facilities in the region.

The key players of the automotive coatings market include Axalta Coating Systems; PPG Industries; Jotun A/S; BASF SE; AkzoNobel N. V.; and Kansai Paint Co. Ltd.

Automotive Fuel Cell Market is Expected to Display 13% CAGR till 2024

The global Automotive Fuel Cell Market was estimated over 5, 000 units in 2015. It would grow at a CAGR of nearly 13% in the forecast period (2016-2024). The market can reach over 10, 850 units by 2024. Expansion across fuel cell vehicles or FCVs owing to pollution-awareness will drive the industry in the near future.

FCVs or fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) run primarily on hydrogen. About 80 million tons of hydrogen are generated each year to cater to the demand for hydrogen fuel cells in FCEVs. Hydrogen infrastructural developments are the key market propeller.

In 2015, the transportation sector largely contributed to carbon dioxide emissions in the U.S., adding to the greenhouse gas problem. The use of FCEVs may curb pollution. A fuel cell contains electrodes. It converts chemical energy into electrical through electromechanical reactions. Electrolytes move electrically-charged elements from one electrode to another, speeding-up chemical reactions in cells.
Biogas, natural gas, and other alternatives are used in fuel cells. This aids in reducing & eliminating noise & air pollution, as hydrogen in combination with oxygen, creates water. FCEVs are free of combustion during energy production.


Low corrosion and lack of ‘high operation temperature’ owing to the absence of combustion are likely to boost the longevity of vehicles. This coupled with their lower maintenance costs can add industry growth. Research & development (R & D) activities should create business opportunities, leading to more employments.

High costs of automotive fuel cells are predicted to hamper the industry. Moreover, lack of technological advancements can hinder the industry. The Automotive Fuel Cell Market is split into applications and regions.

Applications include light-duty vehicles and materials handling. The former accounted for over 50% of the worldwide consumption in 2015. It will also dominate during the next eight years.

Many vehicle manufacturing firms have begun running ‘automotive fuel cell’ programs to encourage technological advancements. Light duty vehicles would grow at around 12.5% CAGR from 2016 to 2023. Their growth should be attributed to technological innovations and their reducing costs.

Materials handling is projected to witness a CAGR of about 15% in the near future. Its applications across airports, distribution centers, and inventory management can contribute segment expansion in the eight years ahead.

In addition, minimal operating costs and low-needed maintenance of these cells can raise market incomes. Regions encompass North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa (MEA). Asia Pacific led in terms of demand, capturing over60% of the total volumes in 2015. It is anticipated to display significant growth accredited to regional support on product promotions.

Europe may surface as a key region. To commercialize fuel cell technology, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) rewarded over USD 7 million in 2013. Due to constant assistance from the U.S. DOE, private firms, & national laboratories; the Automotive Fuel Cell Market has noticed upward trends in the last few years.   

The worldwide market is highly competitive and characterized by numerous large players and small & medium-sized enterprises. Major competitors are Toshiba, Panasonic, Ballard, Plug Power Inc., and Acumentrics SOFC Corporation
