Automotive lightweight materials are specific materials used in the construction of automobiles to minimize total weight while preserving or improving performance. High-strength steel, magnesium, aluminum, and composite materials—like carbon fiber—are among them. They are extensively utilized in the body constructions, suspensions, braking systems, interiors, wheels, and tires of automobiles. Automotive lightweight materials contribute to increased cargo capacity, enhanced braking performance, lower carbon dioxide emissions, and improved fuel efficiency. They also provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, increase the longevity of the vehicle, provide designers more creative freedom, and lessen the strain on other vehicle components.
According to SPER Market Research, Automotive Lightweight Material Market Size- By Material Type, By Propulsion Type, By Component, By Application, By Vehicle Type- Regional Outlook, Competitive Strategies and Segment Forecast to 2033’ states that the Global Automotive Lightweight Material Market is estimated to reach USD 168.19 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 7.9%.
Drivers: In the past, the automotive sector has produced a wide range of parts and components using a variety of production techniques. Panel and body part production has typically employed hot-forming and cold-forming manufacturing processes. Conventional materials like certain grades of steel, aluminium, and other like metals were the only ones that could be produced using these procedures. Moreover, complex panel forms and patterns could not be produced using particular manufacturing technologies. As the demand for automobiles with cutting-edge designs and features rises, advanced production technologies are displacing traditional manufacturing techniques. These technologies include micro injection molding, resin transfer, and additive manufacturing. The potential to create new, comparatively light-weight, and stronger materials was the main benefit of incorporating such advanced manufacturing techniques.
Challenges: Car lightweighing has been made possible in large part by mixed material design (MMD), which involves creating parts and components from two distinct materials. However, it is challenging to fully realize the benefits of MMD due to the challenges involved in welding or combining two different materials. This is mostly due to variations in the densities, physical characteristics, and welding temperatures of the materials. For the parts to be strong and have structural integrity, these two materials must be joined correctly. If any of the crucial components are not joined, there is a serious safety risk. For example, aluminum and steel differ greatly in the majority of their qualities.
