This industry research report identifies Bosch, Aisin Seiki, Continental, and Brembo as the key vendors in the global automotive disc brake market. This industry research report also presents a competitive analysis of the market by application (passenger cars, LCVs, and M&HCVs) and by geography (the Americas, APAC, and EMEA).
Overview of the global automotive disc brake market
Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global automotive disc brake market will grow steadily during the next four years and post a CAGR of over 4% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the rise in government regulations on stopping distance requirement in the developed countries such as the US as one of the primary growth factors for this market. With the focus to reduce fatalities and less damage to the property, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has already proposed a legislation to reduce the minimum stopping distance requirement by 20%-30%, especially in the passenger cars.
One of the latest trends that will gain traction in the automotive disc brake market in the coming years is the rising adoption of carbon ceramic brake pads. Due to their composite and lightweight structure, the carbon ceramic brake pads help in weight reduction of up to 65% when compared to the conventional brake calipers. The ceramic brake pads with their enhanced braking performance result in improved handling and driving characteristics of the vehicle. Ceramic brake pads also help in reducing the level of friction in wheels and improves the overall fuel efficiency of vehicles. Additionally, these brake pads offer functional advantages such as lower NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness levels) with improved stopping power in both dry and wet conditions.
