$13.9 Billion Automotive Heat Shield Market Assessment 2020-2025: COVID-19 Updated

DUBLIN, Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The «Automotive Heat Shield Market by Application (Engine, Exhaust, Under Bonnet, Under Chassis, Turbocharger), Product (Single Shell, Double Shell, Sandwich), Function (Acoustic, Non-Acoustic), Material, Vehicle Type, EV, and Region – Global Forecast to 2025» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Research and Markets Logo

The global automotive heat shield market is projected to reach USD 13.9 billion by 2025 from USD 11.7 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 3.4%. Some of the key players in the automotive heat shield market are Dana Incorporated (US), Morgan Advanced Materials (UK), Autoneum (Switzerland), ElringKlinger AG (Germany), Lydall Inc. (UK), Carcoustics (Germany), and UGN Inc. (US).

Growing advancements in advanced automotive technologies to fuel the demand for the automotive heat shield.

OEMs demand lightweight, contaminant-free, and cost-effective heat shields, which are used for different heat-producing components of a vehicle. The materials used in the fabrication of heat shields are aluminum, nylon fibers, and ceramics. These materials need to be lightweight and multifunctional to meet the high demand from OEMs.

For instance, Dana Holding Corporation is utilizing the cooling property of aluminum to integrate it as cooling plates that enhance the heat transfer of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) switches. These heat shields are lightweight, recyclable, and cost-effective solutions, providing superior heat transfer and cooling abilities. Highly engineered heat shields are manufactured through a rotating injection fiber process that reduces the weight of the heat shield significantly and enhances acoustic performance.

The exhaust system heat shield is projected to be the largest heat shield application in 2020.

The exhaust system heat shield retains the heat in the exhaust system of the vehicle and acts as a thermal barrier for exhaust components. Exhaust system heat shields are used in the muffler, exhaust manifolds, catalytic convertor, and exhaust downpipe. These heat shields can reduce 70% of the heat radiating from the exhaust system. A majority of vehicles are equipped with exhaust system heat shields to reduce the amount of heat radiated by the exhaust system and to protect the other parts of a vehicle.

Higher production of passenger cars in Asia Pacific countries such as China, India, and Japan is attributing to the growth of the market. Also, governments of several countries in the region have set safety mandates to prevent accidents that could occur due to a large amount of heat produced by vehicle engines. Additionally, the use of heat shields can increase the fuel efficiency of cars. These mandates have led to the growth of advanced electrical and electronics components in vehicles, which, in turn, has increased the demand for automotive heat shields. In addition, the growing demand for luxury vehicles will also fuel the automotive heat shield market.

The acoustic segment is estimated to be the largest automotive heat shield market, by function.

Acoustic heat shields eliminate the noise and sound in the engine compartment, transmission tunnel, and bulkhead. In addition, these are thermos-formable and offer lower emissions. These are made of absorber materials that are generally among high-expansion foam, polyester fiber, glass fiber, Rockwool, cotton, and metal cover or foil. For example, Dana Incorporated’s Victor Reinz is a thermal acoustic protective shielding. It protects vehicle components from engine exhaust heat and insulates exhaust components. This increases efficiency, fuel utilization, and vehicle performance.

Acoustic heat shields for the underbody are considered an integral component of the underbody system and provide high thermal performance solutions. It even contributes to an improvement of the underbody aerodynamics. It also provides effective protection against high-frequency sounds by combining them with a sound absorber. These benefits will drive the acoustic heat shield market.

Europe is projected to be the second-largest automotive heat shield market during the forecast period.

The growth of the automotive heat shield market in Europe can be attributed to technological advancements carried out in the industry, such as high mobility logistic trucks for their enhanced capabilities. Europe has stringent emission regulations to tackle rising emission levels. According to experts, stringent emission regulations in Europe would be a major challenge for both passenger car and commercial vehicle manufacturers in 2020.

Government mandates for increasing fuel efficiency of vehicles and the use of advanced safety features have led to the growth of the automotive heat shield market. Europe is home to leading manufacturers such as Renault, Volkswagen, BMW, and Daimler AG. It has witnessed an increasing demand for LCVs equipped with advanced electrical and electronics components. The market growth is also driven by the presence of automotive heat shield manufacturers such as ElringKlinger, Lydall, Carcoustics, and Morgan Advanced Materials.

Average New-Vehicle Prices Jump Nearly 4% Year-Over-Year in August 2020, According to Kelley Blue Book

IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The valuation analysts at Kelley Blue Book today reported the estimated average transaction price for a light vehicle in the United States was $38,635 in August 2020. New-vehicle prices increased $1,442 (up 3.9%) from August 2019, while raising $72 (up 0.2%) from last month.   

«New-car transaction prices flattened from last month. It is interesting to note, this is consistent with seasonal trends from 2017 to 2019, despite volatility earlier this year,» said Sara Richards, an analyst for Kelley Blue Book. «Supply and inventory are still expected to be a challenge in high demand segments going into the fall, due to factory shutdowns this past spring. Additionally, a potential second wave of shutdowns during the fall and winter seasons remains a concern.»

*Kelley Blue Book average transaction prices do not include applied consumer incentives

Several automakers made great strides, including General Motors, which is the only automaker up nearly 3% from July 2020. Hyundai-Kia, Subaru, and Toyota all remain relatively flat from last month but showed strong year-over-year gains in excess of 4%, while Ford and Fiat Chrysler are both up more than 6% year-over-year.

Trucks are the big segment winners this month with average transaction prices up 3%. Major contributors to this lift include the GMC Canyon, Ford F-Series, and GMC Sierra. Non-luxury transaction prices ticked up about half a percent from last month and are now up more than 4% year-over-year, likely supported by continued strength in SUV and truck sales. The prices could correct if these vehicles begin to sell out, although momentum does not appear to be slowing.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Leading global tire maker Hankook Tire today announced that it has launched its all-weather Kinergy 4S2 in the North American market. The IF Design Award-winning Kinergy 4S2 features excellent dry, wet and snow performance complete with a Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating. The Kinergy 4S2 will be offered in rim diameters between 15-20 inches and will carry a 60K mile warranty, road hazard warranty and 30-day free trial.

Developed with a new generation high-grip silica compound, the Kinergy 4S2 features a broad lateral groove that allows for improved wet traction and accelerated water evacuation, as well as high density summer sipes that enhance stiffness to improve dry performance.

The all-weather Kinergy 4S2 is engineered with a unique V-shaped tread design that boasts a Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating, featuring serrated edge grooves and a slush edge that improves digging force and enhances cornering in snow. The tire’s 3D winter sipes also provide improved braking performance in winter conditions.

«The all-weather market is growing in North America and we are excited to launch this product to meet the changing needs of our US customers and consumers,» said Curtis Brison, Vice President of Passenger and Light Truck Sales. «The Kinergy 4S2 gives consumers a new choice to tackle variable winter conditions while also delivering all-season functionality.»

«The Kinergy 4S2 was specifically engineered for optimal performance in all four seasons,» said Kijong Kil, Vice President of RE Development. «While it maintains strong dry performance and long mileage for the warmer months, its cutting-edge tread design also provides outstanding performance in winter conditions.»

For the past 20 years, Hankook has been a leader in the Canadian and European all-weather markets. While the Kinergy 4S2 was first launched in Europe in May 2018, the product will soon be offered worldwide. The Kinergy 4S2 will be available in the U.S. in 45 sizes beginning on September 1, 2020.

IRVING, Texas, Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is calling on kids and families to build and submit Pinewood Derby cars to compete in the Pinewood Derby 500 race hosted live on Facebook from the Texas Motor Speedway on Saturday, Sept. 12 at 11:00 a.m. EST. The first-ever national virtual Pinewood Derby event is part of Family Fun Fest, a free virtual event from the BSA for all families – Scouts and non-Scouts – that pairs hands-on fun activities with online interactions in a space where kids can show off their creativity, resourcefulness and problem-solving skills. Working with AdoptAClassroom.org, the event will also invite participants to thank and support teachers who are working to inspire safe learning environments in the new school year.

«With so many activities and events still on hold, the Boy Scouts of America is excited to partner with Texas Motor Speedway to host a first-of-its-kind sporting event that puts kids in the virtual driver’s seat,» said Effie Delimarkos, Vice President of National Communications and Partnerships. «We understand that parents are looking for new ways to keep kids engaged. We can’t think of a better way than to invite them to participate in the Pinewood Derby 500 – a celebration that opens one of most popular Cub Scouting events to all children.»

Families are encouraged to build and send in their Pinewood Derby cars and can use Pinewood Derby kits found at ScoutShop.org, Amazon or local retailers. Cars that register online and are received by Sept. 8 will be eligible to compete in the race at the Texas Motor Speedway during Family Fun Fest.

The Pinewood Derby 500 winner will be featured on the NASCAR Hall of Fame website as part of its ongoing support of STEM learning. With a guardian’s help, kids can also share a photo or video of their vehicle on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter up until the big race using the hashtag #Pinewood500 for their chance to win digital awards.

«The Pinewood Derby is a unique way for kids to express their creativity, work on a project together with their parent or guardian, and even learn hands on about STEM. This Pinewood Derby 500 will be the first national virtual race showing that Scouting continues to offer fun that families are looking for, even if COVID-19 means we have to be socially distanced,» said Anthony Berger, National Director of Cub Scouting. «This is how Scouting works, giving youth hands on fun activities that provide valuable lessons and this event is a great example of how Scouts have fun while developing confidence, leadership and problem-solving skills that kids will benefit from now and in their future.»
