Electric Vehicle (Car) Polymers Market Share: By Type

Based on the type, the market is segmented as engineering plastics and elastomers. The elastomers segment is expected to fuel the major share of the market during the forecast period as elastomers find their extensive usage in insulation in cars and also, in manufacturing of tires.

Electric Vehicle (Car) Polymers Market Share: By Component Type

Based on the component type, the electric vehicle (car) polymers market is segmented as powertrain system, exterior, and interior. The interior segment of components is witnessing a significant transformation by replacement of metals with polymers, as components made with polymers have lower accidental risk and safety issues. Therefore, electric car manufacturers are employing polymers, instead of metals, in the interiors of electric cars, which also reduce the overall weight of electric cars. Polymer has proven to be the ideal material for the interior components of a car, as it is durable and aesthetically pleasing, also reducing the noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) levels of an electric car. All these factors are likely to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

Electric Vehicle (Car) Polymers Market Share: By Region

In terms of regions, Asia-Pacific is estimated to dominate the overall market for electric vehicle (car) polymers during the forecast period. The region has emerged as the largest consumer of electric vehicle (car) polymers, owing to the surge in production of electric cars in China, Japan, South Korea, among other countries. Growing concern for reducing the level of carbon footprints, increasing government support, and reduction in the overall weight of electric cars are the major factors bolstering the growth of the market for electric vehicle (car) polymers in the Asia-Pacific region. North America and Europe are also expected to offer promising growth opportunities during the forecast period.
