Global Automotive Steering Systems Market Forecast to 2018

The steering system is in simpler words the most important line of communication between the vehicle and its driver. Ever since the inception of the motor vehicle, steering systems have been the main stay of the vehicle’s maneuverability and agility. In the era of active safety systems like ABS, ESP etc. steering system’s safety value has gone unnoticed but there’s no denying the fact that steering is one of the most crucial aspects of a vehicle’s safety. A vehicle with ABS, ESP or any of the safety features is just as likely to be involved in a mishap as one without these features if it is not steered in the proper direction.
This report describes the market for automotive steering systems in across the globe based on vehicle type (passenger cars; light commercial vehicles; heavy duty vehicles), type (manual; assisted), with safety features (With ABS/ESP; Without ABS/ESP); geography (Asia-Pacific; North-America; Europe; ROW). The assisted steering system segment further covers the market for hydraulically, electro-hydraulically, and electrically assisted steering systems. Apart from quantitative analysis of these markets, the report also covers qualitative aspects like market dynamics, porter’s five forces analysis etc.
