Automotive Exhaust Systems - Global Sector Overview and Forecast (Q1 2022 Update)

Summary

As each new emission regulation swings into force, more and more content is added to the exhaust in order to comply. This adds both cost and value to the overall system. Manufacturers believe that with increasingly strict emissions regulations forecast, the emissions control content per light vehicle will rise over the next few years as a result of the introduction of multiple catalytic converters per vehicle, heat exchangers and particulate filters. The emission standards are, however, technology-neutral. That means that vehicle makers are free to use whatever technology they choose in order to meet the current standard.

The report “Automotive Exhaust Systems - Global Sector Overview and Forecast (Q1 2022 Update)” provides a comprehensive overview of the Global Light Vehicle OE Exhausts sector, major suppliers, top 14 markets, technology trends and automobile exhaust market size forecasts.

For the purpose of forecasts, the complete exhaust system is defined as one which is divided into three main elements: the manifold, ‘hot end’ and the ‘cold end’. The manifold, which collects the exhaust gases produced by the engine, routes the gases to the hot end, which reduces their toxicity. The gases then go to the cold end, which reduces noise and vibration. The hot end includes the exhaust manifold, flex coupling, warm-up converter, air-gap down pipe and underfloor converter. In other words, it is the end closest to the engine. The cold end includes the hangers and brackets, resonator, intermediate pipes, muffler, heat shields and exhaust tip

*The top 14 markets accounting for over 98% of global light vehicle production include - North America (US, Canada and Mexico); Mercosur (Brazil and Argentina); Western Europe (Germany, Italy, France, UK, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Austria, Finland and Morocco); Central Europe (Turkey, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia); Russia; Japan; China; India; Korea; Thailand; Other Asia; Iran; South Africa; Australia.
