Technology Landscape, Trends and Opportunities in the Global Automotive Brake Market

Report Feature

The technologies in the automotive brake have undergone significant changes in recent years, from conventional brakes to electronic brake system technologies. The rising wave of new technologies, such as electronic stability control coupled with anti lock braking system and traction control systems are creating significant potential for automotive brake in various applications due to the growing demand for safety systems to avoid accidents and increasing automotive production.
 
In the automotive brake market, various technologies, such as anti-lock braking system (ABS), traction control system (TCS), and electronic stability control (ESC) are used in passenger cars, light commercial vehicle, heavy commercial vehicle, and two-wheeler applications. Increasing demand for road safety regulations, technological advancement in brake systems, and increase in automotive production are creating new opportunities for automotive brake technologies. 

Some of the latest technological developments by various countries in the automotive brake market are as follows:
  • Europe: The European Union (EU) has mandated electronic stability control (ESC) and emergency brake assist (EBA) systems in new cars. Continental AG announced an advanced ESC system with improved intervention for off-road situations.
  • China: The Chinese government is expected to make advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), including ESC. Local players like BYD are developing in-house ESC systems to compete with established players like Bosch.
  • United States: There are currently no federal regulations mandating specific braking technologies. However, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is exploring making some ADAS features mandatory in the future. Tier 1 suppliers like TRW Automotive (acquired by ZF Friedrichshafen) are focusing on lighter and more efficient brake components for electric vehicles.
This report analyzes technology maturity, degree of disruption, competitive intensity, market potential, and other parameters of various technologies in the automotive brake market. Some insights are depicted below by a sample figure.
