Active Air Deflector: Introduction
- An active air deflector is fitted below the front bumper; it is an electronically controlled air dam that helps direct the air flow and improve aerodynamics of the vehicle. A better way to improve the fuel-efficiency of the vehicle is to improve vehicle aerodynamics and reduce the weight of the vehicle.
- When the vehicle is running at low speed, the active air deflector is extended and it allows air to flow under the vehicle. When vehicle speed is more than 35 kmph, the active air deflector is deployed and redirects the air around the vehicle, thereby reducing the air drag, which helps improve the fuel efficiency of the vehicle.
Key Drivers of Active Air Deflector Market
- Rise in production of vehicles integrated with increasing number of safety features across the globe is likely to propel the global active air deflector market. An active air deflector helps improve the aerodynamic flow of air under the vehicle, which helps to increase the vehicle fuel efficiency; however, an increase in the demand for fuel-efficient vehicles would help boost the active air deflector market across the globe.
- Rise in number of small- and medium-scale industries across the globe is likely to propel the air deflector market across the globe. Additionally, an increase in sale and production of vehicles is projected to propel the active air deflector market across the globe. Rising trend towards downsizing the vehicle weight is prompting vehicle manufacturers to integrate lower weight components in their vehicles, which is anticipated to propel the active air deflector market across the globe.
Europe & Asia Pacific to hold significant share of global Active Air Deflector Market
- Europe is projected to account for a significant share of the global active air deflector market due to a rise in the demand for vehicles across the region. Europe is home to major original equipment manufacturers as well as tier-1 suppliers who have major facilities that undertake research & development regarding the vehicle plastic component, which is likely to propel the active air deflector market across the globe.
- Followed by Europe, Asia Pacific is projected to hold a major share of the global active air deflector market due to an increase in the demand for safety features in vehicles across the region. Presence of major plastic component manufacturing industries across China, India, and Japan is anticipated to propel the active air deflector market in Asia Pacific.
