The study involves 4 main activities to estimate the current size of the automotive lightweight material market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, such as the automotive lightweight material types, upcoming technologies, and upcoming automotive lightweight materials. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and market analysis with industry experts across value chains through primary research. A mix of bottom-up and top-down approach was employed to estimate the market size for different segments considered under this study.

Secondary Research

The secondary sources referred for this research study include automotive lightweight material organizations such as the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association, The Institute for Advanced Composites Manufacturing Innovation, corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements), Factiva, CrunchBase, Bloomberg and trade, business, and automotive associations. Secondary data has been collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall market size, which is further validated by multiple industry experts.

Primary Research

Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring an understanding of the automotive lightweight material market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with market experts from both the demand- (users) and supply-side (all-terrain vehicle manufacturers) across 4 major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Oceania, and the Rest of the World. Primary data has been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, we have strived to cover various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, vehicle planning, production and administration, to provide a holistic viewpoint in our report.

After interacting with industry experts, we also conducted brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report.

Market Size Estimation

The bottom-up approach has been used to estimate and validate the size of the global automotive lightweight material market. The market size, by volume, of automotive lightweight materials, by material type – Metals, Composites, Plastics & Elastomers, has been derived by identifying the penetration of different materials in each vehicle type in key countries. To determine the market size, in terms of volume, of automotive lightweight materials, the average vehicle weight has been multiplied by country level shares of lightweight material type considered in the study and then further multiplied with the vehicle production numbers to get the country level lightweight material volume. This country level market size, in terms of volume, of lightweight materials for each vehicle type is then multiplied with the country level average OE price (AOP) (weighted average method is used to derive country level prices) of lightweight materials for each material type. This results in the country-level market size, in terms of value. The summation of the country level market gives the regional market and further summation of the regional market provides the global automotive lightweight material market.

While estimating the regional segmentation of the automotive lightweight material market, by material type, the regional shares of automotive lightweight materials have been identified and are applied to the regional market size, in terms of volume, of lightweight materials. To calculate the demand for automotive lightweight materials, the average weight of various vehicle segments at a regional level is found, and this weight is multiplied with the regional lightweight material market size, in terms of volume. The lightweight materials demand is identified in thousand metric tons. The addition of this regional market size, in terms of volume (thousand metric tons), gives the global automotive lightweight material market. 

The top-down approach has been used to estimate the automotive lightweight material market based on application. The average use of lightweight materials in a particular application is found for each vehicle type in the region. The market shares of each application are then multiplied with the regional lightweight material market to derive the volume by application, in terms of thousand metric tons.

Data Triangulation

All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns have been determined using secondary sources and verified by primary sources. All parameters that are said to affect the markets covered in this research study have been accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, and analyzed to obtain the final quantitative and qualitative data. This data has been consolidated, enhanced with detailed inputs and analysis from MarketsandMarkets, and presented in the report. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides in automotive lightweight material market.
