Automotive Adaptive Engine Mounts Market

Automotive Adaptive Engine Mounts Market Introduction

Automotive adaptive engine mounts is an automotive component that is designed and developed primarily to increase the comfort and ease in longitudinally mounted vehicle engines with high excitation potential and attach the engine to the sub-frame of the vehicle. The prime objective of the automotive adaptive engine mounts is to safeguard the engine against all the probabilities which constitute of road shock and vibration. It optimizes the vibration behavior, particularly at idling speed or too close to idling speed of the vehicle during the event of high excitations.

Automotive Adaptive Engine Mounts Market - Competitive Landscape

Automotive Adaptive Engine Mounts Market Dynamics

Increase in demand for good ride handling supplemented with light weighting of the vehicle are driving demand for automotive adaptive engine mounts

Vehicle engine-body-chassis is generally subjected to unbalanced engine forces, and the automotive adaptive engine mount is the supporting part of the vehicle engine that joins the vehicle engine to its sub-frame. Moreover, the automotive adaptive engine mounts ensure good vehicle ride handling in different driving situations. This is a key factor that drives the usage of adaptive engine mounts in modern vehicles.

Additionally, downsizing of the engine and its components in order to reduce the weight of the vehicle has led to the development of new materials that are being used to manufacture adaptive engine mounts. This has resulted in high performance of the engine mount, maximum protection from road vibrations, and improved vehicle efficiency. This is also anticipated to boost the automotive adaptive engine market in the near future.

Rising demand for hybrid vehicles coupled with alternative fuel vehicle around the world

Volatility in vehicle fuel prices, rising scarcity of crude oil, and surging environmental concerns are motivating and encouraging both government bodies and auto manufacturers to design and develop new cleaner fuels to regulate and control vehicular emissions. The hybrid vehicle has emerged as a possible solution for both oil scarcity and transportation emission. The hybrid vehicle contains adaptive engine mounts to hold the vehicle engine in its place and also dampen engine vibration.

Furthermore, governments are offering subsidies to boost adoption of hybrid vehicles. This, in turn, is likely to propel the adaptive engine mounts market in the near future.

Increase in adoption of pure electric vehicle to hamper the automotive adaptive engine mounts market

An electric vehicle eliminates the need for engine mounts, which acts as a major restraint to the automotive adaptive engine mounts market. Surge in transportation emission is likely to drive the adoption of pure electric vehicles, as they are expected to playing a vital role in curtailing transportation emission. Moreover, regulatory bodies across the globe are encouraging the adoption of pure electric vehicles by offering tax credit and subsidies on the purchase of electric vehicles. This is anticipated to hamper the adaptive engine mounts market in the near future.
