Brake override system is an active vehicle safety feature that was designed to prevent simultaneous vehicle acceleration and deceleration or in case of an electrical failure that causes the vehicle to accelerate even on braking. Vehicles fitted with brake override system, enhanced with smart technology, contain sensors and an electronic control unit that detects when something abnormal occurs.
Brake override system is also known as smart pedal and smart stop technology. Vehicles incorporate several systems to increase safety, security, and comfort of the driver as well passengers. Currently, vehicles are fitted with cameras, sensors, and other devices to monitor the performance and operations of various components while driving.
Key drivers of Automotive Brake Override System Market
Rapid advances in automotive technology are being witnessed in the auto industry for the last few years, particularly in relation to braking systems and sensing systems. Extensive integration of advanced braking system has provided the building blocks for a smart safety system in the vehicle. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in the U.S. concluded that the possibility of immovable accelerator pedal is serious enough to present a significant traffic safety issue, even if the exact number of cases is presently undetermined. A jammed accelerator pedal to lead to fatal accidents or injuries, which is fueling the demand for an automotive brake override system and subsequently, boosting the brake override system market.
Rise in road and safety awareness across the globe is likely to propel the automotive brake override system market across the globe. Stringent regulations pertaining to vehicle safety are further boosting the automotive brake override system market. Several government and regulatory authorities have taken initiatives and enacted country-wide vehicle standards and legislations that mandate implementation of brake override system in a vehicle in order to address the issue of increasing accidental fatalities.
Asia Pacific and Europe to hold prominent share of global automotive brake override system market
The market for passenger vehicles in Asia pacific has witnessed significant expansion for the last few years. India, China, South Korea, and Japan offer significant opportunity for manufacturers of various technologies such as anti-lock braking system, electronic brake distribution system, and electronic stability control.
Europe is projected to account for a major share of the global automotive brake override system market due stringent rules and regulations enacted across the region regarding vehicle safety features. Increase in sale of electric vehicles across the region is also likely to boost the automotive brake override system market in the region. Europe has presence of major original equipment manufacturers as well as tier-1 suppliers, including Robert Bosch GmbH, Denso Corporation and Continental AG who have major facilities that undertake research and development regarding the pedestrian protection system and blind spot monitoring system, which would help increase vehicle safety. This, in turn, is likely to boost the automotive brake override system market in Europe.
Organizations of various countries are compelling automakers to increase integration of safety features in vehicles. The Government of the U.K., United Nation regulations, Europe Standards on Vehicle Safety by European Transport Safety Council, and safety regulations enacted by SIAM India are a few governing authorities that have made installation of brake override system mandatory in vehicles, which in turn is estimated to drive the automotive brake override system market across the globe.
