A Look at the Key Market Drivers for the Automotive Electric Motors Industry.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c33280) has announced the addition of Global Market Review Of Automotive Electric Motors - Forecasts To 2011 to their offering.

As electric motors proliferate in the modern car, manufacturers have developed lighter and more compact units. For example, engineers at Johnson Electric are working on ways to reduce the size of automotive electric motors while retaining or improving existing performance. Bosch has also introduced a new generation of lightweight miniature motors for use in various systems. These motors are designed for use in power windows and seat adjusted mechanisms. In addition to using these motors for conventional applications such as seat and steering column adjustment functions, they are also being produced for side-window blinds, convertible folding tops and seat belt extenders. In an exclusive interview, Nobuo Ishii, senior manager of development, Asmo Co Ltd, said: "Motors are indispensable for the progress of automobile technology. We think the number of motors used in the vehicle will further increase to support the development of automobile technology. We are required to provide smaller, lighter, more efficient motors at lower cost, and these requirements will not change anytime soon."

In this, the third edition of this report, we review the key market drivers for automotive electric DC motors, and we update the market analysis and include comments from the key players. Our product fitment forecasts in chapter two extends to 2011, determining the market fitment and value forecast for electric motors for rearview mirrors, window lift mechanisms, electric parking brakes, seating adjustment mechanisms, sunroofs and electric steering systems. Our forecasts are not extrapolative but dependent on the underlying drivers of supply and demand. Each forecast covers Western Europe, Japan and North America. In addition, we forecast the market volume and value of electric motors for all automotive applications - ranging from powering sunroofs to the HVAC blower - across the three major car-producing regions. Chapter three provides brief profiles of the major manufacturers of electric motors, namely: ArvinMeritor, Bosch, Continental Temic, Denso, Jideco, Globe Motors, Johnson Electric, SAIA Burgess, Siemens VDO and Valeo.
