Abstract
This Intelligence Set includes the 2008 edition of the starter motors and
alternators report, plus manufacturer profiles for Bosch, Continental, Delphi,
Denso, Valeo and Mitsubishi Electric.
Each profile is approximately 25 to 27 pages, and includes a brief outline of
business activity, financial statistics, customers and more. They will allow
you to discover where the market is heading, what the latest innovations are,
and how your competitors are performing.
' just-auto estimates that the total OE alternator market was worth nearly
EUR1.3bn in 2007, with potential to be worth nearly EUR1.6bn in 2014.'
The increasing use of power-hungry options in modern passenger cars, such as
heated seats and quick-defrost glass is placing unprecedented demands on
automotive charging systems.
In response, the technology and specifications for the components used in
starters and alternators (collectively known as rotating electrics) have
become more advanced, and the growing complexity of passenger cars and light
trucks has resulted in a significant increase in the sheer number of different
alternators and starters.
In terms of design, the accent is on lightweight construction with higher
outputs and better reliability than ever before; with manufacturers also
having to address environmental, noise and high under-bonnet temperature
concerns.
So, while the latest starters and alternators provide improved power
generation capacity, they are also smaller, lighter and quieter in order to
improve fuel consumption, help reduce CO2 and improve cabin comfort.
' In the light commercial vehicle segment, just-auto estimates that around 3.3m
alternators were sold in the EU in 2007, with market volume potential to reach
4m by 2014.'
just-auto' s fourth report focusing on automotive starter motors and
alternators offers exclusive Q&As with Denso, Valeo and ZF, an overview of the
key industry trends and a look at the emerging markets.
Recent innovations in both conventional starter motors and alternators and
integrated starter-alternators are investigated in the technical review, and
profiles of the major manufacturers, from Bosch to Valeo are provided.
Forecasts to 2014 for the (OES and independent) aftermarket for starter motors
and alternators in Europe, and for OE starter motors and alternators (by
volume and value) in Europe, North America, Japan and China are also included.
