Dublin, Oct. 15, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b26m7s/variable_valve)
has announced the addition of the "Variable
Valve Timing & Start-Stop Systems - Market Trends &
Forecast to 2018" report to their offering.
The automotive industry has witnessed a substantial growth in the
past few years, fuelled primarily by the BRIC nations. The
technologies covered under the scope of this report are the
fuel-efficient technologies used to enhance the performance and
efficiency of a vehicle. VVT systems, while enhancing the fuel
efficiency of a vehicle, also ensure that optimum power is
delivered throughout the power-band of a vehicle. It eliminates the
problem of low-power lag or top-end punch lag in conventional IC
engines. The most common method of Variable Valve Timing
application are the cam-phasing units which retard or advance the
valve closing or opening time to gain performance and fuel
efficiency. The start-stop system turns off the engine of a vehicle
when it is at halt and restarts it once the driver re-engages the
gas pedal. It helps improving the fuel economy and performance of
the vehicle; also helps reduce the exhaust emission levels. These
systems have gained preference among the automobile OEMs because of
their low cost to benefit ratios.
Growing concerns towards fuel-efficiency and emission levels from
vehicles have fuelled the demand for these technologies in regions
like North-America and Europe, while the Asia-Pacific region is
hugely driven by the consumer's preference for small cars which are
value for money in terms of fuel efficiency and running costs.
China has been the leading car producing country in the world for
three years in the running and is expected to maintain its top
position for the near future and hence is a market with great
potential.

Due to the low cost of cam-phasing units, the system has found
major acceptance in all the regions, but with the price gap between
cam-phasing and (Variable
Valve Actuation) VVA units decreasing, the demand for VVA
systems is expected to outpace the demand for cam-phasing units in
most regions. In start-stop systems market, enhanced starter
technology looks comfortable with its market topping volumes and
growth rate and is expected to hold almost 3/4th of the market in
2018.
