Three new trends in global automotive LED lighting market

Technavio, a research consultancy, released the latest report on the global automotive LED lighting market and analyzed the main trends of the global automotive LED lighting market in 2016-2020. Technavio analysis of the impact of the global automotive LED lighting market may be significant and the three major emerging market trends.

2020 global automotive LED lighting market is expected to exceed $7 billion, a compound annual growth rate of over 18%. Global automotive LED lighting market showing explosive growth can be attributed to: lighting manufacturers strive to provide efficient, reliable and affordable LED lights.

Technavio auto parts analyst Vinay Hirakki said: the introduction of innovative technologies to improve vehicle safety and performance, as well as the decline in auto parts prices will help stimulate the sale of automotive LED lighting products. At present, manufacturers are also for the development of high-quality automotive accessories LED lights. "

Technavio Automotive Research Analyst summed up the impact of the global automotive LED lighting market, the three emerging trends are as follows:

LED technology innovation

Suppliers are using semiconductor technology for customers to develop the next generation of the next generation LED platform to improve the cost advantage.

High quality, high quality LED headlamp is conducive to enhance road safety, can provide better visibility when driving. LED headlamps can reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions by reducing heat, but also enhance the beauty of the car. LED front lamp life up to 25000 hours or more.

LED technology innovation to promote the organic light emitting two tubes (OLED) development, OLED provides new opportunities for the design of lights and lamps, OLED lamps to create lighting without glare and non homogeneous transmission shadow, suitable for lights, taillights and indoor lighting.

Environmental lighting is becoming more and more popular

Environmental lighting is mainly used in interior decoration and aesthetic. The concept was introduced in 2007 and has been extended to low-cost models.

Ambient lighting is realized by installing a light guide tube and an aperture, and a LED pin lamp. A diffusion lens is attached to the vehicle's control panel, door panel, instrument panel, and seat frame. As more and more car enthusiasts tend to customize, the system's aftermarket sales are increasing.

Environmental lighting can illuminate the necessary functions in the dark, so as to facilitate the driver. End users can control the intensity and color of car lighting. Therefore, the environmental lighting in the forecast period will promote the development of the market. "Vinay Hirakki added.

Laser and OLED lighting development

Laser lights and OLED lights are the most advanced lighting technology in automotive applications. However, due to its high cost, laser lights and OLED lights are mainly limited to luxury cars. Based on the technology is still in its early stages, the forecast period will increase the use of various models in the car, because the supplier in a variety of cars launched low-cost OLED lights and laser lights.

Laser illumination is a relatively new trend in the automotive industry. The function of the laser light includes the transmission of blue light laser to a diode to diffuse white light. The size of the laser light is smaller than the size of the LED lamp 10 times. Compared with the products in the current market, laser lamps have a strong brightness and a longer range. This allows manufacturers to reduce the size of the bulb without affecting the light intensity.

Laser lighting provides improved visibility to improve road safety. BMW, for example, uses a laser headlamp technology in its I8 models. Technavio expects that this technology will also be used in other vehicles, the forecast period of laser lighting will drive market growth.

Technavio analysts survey of global automotive LED lighting market top manufacturers include: Hella (Hella), KOTTO, Ma Ruili (Magneti Marelli) and valeo.
