North American Light Vehicle Exhaust Emission Control Systems Markets

Abstract

This study covers external exhaust emission control systems for cars and light trucks. These markets are projected to grow as emissions regulations tighten. Systems covered are: catalytic converters, secondary air injection, and external exhaust gas recirculation for gasoline engines; and diesel oxidation catalysts, diesel particulate filters, external exhaust gas recirculation, selective catalytic reduction, and lean NOx traps for diesel engines. Market challenges, drivers, and restraints are presented. Markets are quantified in terms of unit shipments, average prices, and revenues. Market participants are briefly profiled.
