Abstract
Revenues from LEDs used in light vehicles will almost double from 2006 to 2014
to $1.2 billion. This key finding comes from this detailed report, which
includes:
- Forecasts of revenues and unit shipments; split by exterior application,
interior function and location, product type, LED colour and geographical
region.
- Analysis of each important exterior application: including headlamps,
daytime running lights, centrally high mounted stop lights, rear lights and
turning lights.
- Detailed analysis of technical trends and competitive environment.
- Detailed information on the supplier chain including short profiles of the
leading LED, lamp and vehicle manufacturers.
- Market shares for leading suppliers of LEDs to the automotive industry,
for the total market, and for interior and exterior applications.
The strong, steady growth of LEDs in the automotive sector will continue,
driven mainly by the increasing use of LEDs in various exterior applications
that were previously dominated by incandescent bulbs.
This highly detailed quantitative analysis was based on over 20 detailed
telephone and face-to-face interviews, and information from trade shows and
conferences, press releases, observations of vehicles in different countries
and other sources.
- Market estimates for 2006 and 2007 and year forecasts to 2014.
- Tables and accompanying figures show the market size for each application
and product type.
- Advantages and disadvantages of LEDs compared with incandescent, xenon and
other competing technologies.
- Many specific examples given of the supply chain of LED manufacturers,
lighting system suppliers and vehicle manufacturers with discussions of
product choices made.
- Market shares for leading LED manufacturers.
