Abstract
This Intelligence Set includes the fourth edition of the electronic braking
systems report, along with profiles of Bosch, Continental, Delphi and TRW
Automotive.
It offers excellent value for money and will allow you to discover where the
market is heading, what the latest innovations are, and how your competitors
are performing.
Ever since the first electronic stability programme (ESP) system appeared on a
Mercedes-Benz model in 1995, braking system manufacturers have been predicting
significant demand as appreciation of ESP among drivers of the middle and
lower segments of the car market grows.
Brake control systems offer assistance to driver' s by controlling the brake
pressure on each individual wheel in critical situations. Whilst anti-lock
braking systems (ABS) prevent the wheels from locking during braking, and
traction control systems (TCS) stop the wheels from spinning on acceleration,
ESP systems go one step beyond the functions of both of these, and also reduce
the risk of skidding in all traffic situations. So, although it is already
standard equipment on many luxury cars, an increasing number of mid-range and
small cars are being fitted with the optional unit.
In this fourth edition of the electric braking systems report, just-auto
reviews the key market drivers, includes an overview of the emerging markets,
and provides a look at the recent trends and innovations in the sector.
Top-level product fitment forecasts through to 2013 predict the market by
volume and value worldwide, and by major car-producing region for electronic
braking systems, plus thumbnail profiles on the main suppliers are provided,
along with an exclusive interview with Dr. Ralf Cramer, executive vice
president, Electronic Brake & Safety Systems and member of the Management
Board, Continental Automotive Systems .
