Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Transparency Market Research Inc. -, July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The automotive lightweight materials market (자동차 경량소재 시장) was projected to attain US$ 77.0 billion in 2023. It is likely to garner a 3.7% CAGR from 2024 to 2034, and by 2034, the market is expected to attain US$ 115.9 billion.
There is a growing trend towards the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers and other composites due to their high strength to weight ratio and durability. Aluminum is becoming a popular choice for vehicle frames, body panels, and other structural components due to its lightweight properties and recyclability.
Automakers are increasingly using advanced high strength steel alloys that offer superior strength and lower weight compared to traditional steel. Lightweight materials are being integrated into mass produced vehicles, not just luxury or high performance models, indicating broader adoption across the industry.
