Key Market Trends

Increasing Demand for Sports Utility Vehicles driving the Market

The demand for seatbelt pretensioners has been increasing at a rapid pace all over the world, especially in the emerging markets. The automotive safety systems are generally fitted to the sports utility vehicles, based on government regulations and the growth of public awareness.

The market for sports utility vehicles has been witnessing a maximum growth in India, China, Vietnam, and other Asian countries.

Earlier, seatbelt pretensioners were available only in luxury car brands, like Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, and Volvo. With advancements in technology and manufacturers' effort in developing cost-effective safety solutions, seat belt pretensioners are now made available in economic car brands, like Honda, Hyundai, Skoda, and Volkswagen.

SUVs witnessed sales of around 30.7 million units in 2020 . Though the number of sport utility vehicles featuring seatbelt pretensioners has been limited in the emerging markets, their numbers may increase in the future.

The significant issues regarding pretensioners systems are high maintenance costs. Also, most of the SUV buyers in the emerging markets drive off-roaders on paved roads in the cities and have little need to have safety systems. The standard seatbelt pretensioner systems may result in higher growth rates in the market studied due to the higher growth rate of entry-level sports utility vehicles.

Continuous evolution in the automobile industry working upon regulatory measures has been leading to constant developments in the safety features and components of automobiles.

According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in the United States, seat belt usage by commercial drivers has jumped from 65% to 86% over the past decade.

The increasing penetration of automotive seat belt pretensioners in the Asia-Pacific region, owing to the rising production of premium vehicles that are equipped with a higher number of automotive seat belt pretensioners in the seat belt systems is expected to be a key driver for the automotive seat belt pretensioner market.
