Automotive Actuators Market by Product Type (Throttle, Power Seat, EGR, Brake, VGT, Wastegate, Grille Shutter, Intake Flap, Electrical Exhaust/Sound Flap & Thermo Module/Thermal Actuators) by Vehicle Type, by Geography – Forecast & Analysis to 2020

“Automotive actuators are used in the actuation of different systems of a vehicle, including turbochargers, throttle body, EGR system, brake system, power seats, and active grille shutter system. The automotive actuators market has witnessed considerable growth in developing countries such as India, China, and Middle Eastern countries. Over time, automotive actuators have evolved from mechanical functioning to being controlled by electrical signals.
This report classifies and defines the automotive actuators market, in terms of volume and value. It provides a comprehensive analysis and insights into the automotive actuators market (both—qualitative and quantitative). It highlights potential growth opportunities for the coming years while also reviewing market drivers, restraints, growth indicators, challenges, market dynamics, competitive landscape, and other key aspects with respect to automotive actuators.
This report segments the automotive actuators market by product type (wastegate actuator, VGT actuator, power seat actuator, EGR actuator, intake flap actuator, grille shutter actuator, brake actuator, throttle actuator, thermo module actuator, and electrical exhaust or sound flaps actuator), by vehicle type (PC, LCV, and HCV), and by region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and RoW). The key players in the automotive actuators market have also been identified and profiled.
