Electromobility – A Double-edged Sword
Electromobility, the development of electric vehicles (EVs), has enabled dramatic transformation of the global automotive industry at a significant rate, and will continue to leave imprints in this turbulent market space. With the trend of electromobility growing at a breakneck pace, the sales volume of automotive control cables is expected to rise manifold, as EVs consume ~3X control cables, compared to conventional automobiles.
However, automotive control cable also remains among the key elements that directly as well as indirectly bore the brunt of ‘e-mobility’ revolution. With EVs making their headway to the mainstream, some of the top selling categories in automotive control cable market are most likely to encounter severe challenges in terms of sales in the near future. Brake cables, transmission cables, and hood cables, will eventually witness diminishing need, equivalent to a dip by significant margins. On a similar line, the rapidly popularizing concept of shared mobility will also decelerate automobile sales to a certain extent, reflecting the future hurdles for manufacturers of automotive control cables. Â
Extending Portfolios - Emphasizing Strength & Endurance
Considering the harshest of environments, durability and strength of automotive control cable continues to be a significant end user consideration. Automakers seek control cables that can survive the high-temperature conditions and oil-contaminated vehicle environments, where they are exposed to repeated flexing and abrasion. Manufacturers active in the automotive control cable market are broadening their portfolio, covering both, shielded and un-shielded cables, in an effort to cater to a diverse end user needs. In addition, manufacturers are utilizing a host of insulation formulations, which are typically developed in-house, and specifically tailored to offer optimal performance.
