    Organic growth of automobile production, growing preference for composite components in passenger and light commercial vehicles, development of new composite suspension applications, advancement in composites technology, and stringent government regulations regarding fuel efficiency and carbon emission reductions are the major factors that are burgeoning the demand for composite suspension components in the automotive industry.

    Composite suspension components offer several benefits over steel components, such as lightweight, high durability, better vibration energy absorption, and excellent fatigue resistance. For example, composite leaf spring is up to five times more durable than that similarly sized steel leaf springs at just 1/7th weight.

    What is an automotive composite suspension component?

    The automotive composite suspension component is mainly a connection between the vehicle frame and the road on which the vehicle is running. The suspension system includes components such as tires, shock absorbers, joints, bushings, and many others.

    The automotive composite suspension component is different from the regular suspension component based on a number of factors such as the composite components are lighter in weight, and are more durable in nature which can also lead to lesser carbon emission and better efficiency. Hence the composite suspension components are beneficial to the user as well as the environment.

    Segments' Analysis

    By Component Type

    The automotive composite suspension components market is segmented based on component type as Leaf Spring, Coil Spring, Suspension Arm, Stabilizer Bar, and Other Components. Composite leaf spring is expected to remain the largest segment of the market during the forecast period. Composite leaf springs are mainly used in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Pickup, Van, and SUVs are the major vehicle types that are using composite leaf springs on either transversal or longitudinal positions depending on requirements, vehicle design, etc. All the major OEMs are evaluating the usage of composite leaf springs in their major Pickup, VAN, and SUV models.

    By Type of Vehicles

    Based on the vehicle type, the market is segmented as passenger car, light commercial vehicle (LCV), medium & heavy-duty commercial vehicle (M&HCV), and others. LCV currently dominates the automotive composite suspension components market because of the higher usage of composite leaf springs in LCVs. The passenger car segment is projected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period, driven by increasing usage of leaf springs and coil springs.

    Regional Insights

    Based on regions, Europe is expected to remain the largest market for composite suspension components in the automotive industry over the next five years, driven by higher usage of composite leaf springs in LCVs. North America and Asia-Pacific are likely to witness higher growth rates over the next five years, driven by a host of factors including a gradual shift of assembly plants of OEMs in these regions, increasing penetration of composite leaf springs, and market entry of local composite leaf spring manufacturers.
