Electric Parking Brake Market Players Focus on Enhanced Fuel Economy
By product type, the global electric parking brake market is segmented
into cable-pull systems and electric-hydraulic caliper systems. The
electric parking brake market is expected to be prominent in the
electric-hydraulic caliper system owing to the safer and more
comfortable driving experience and enhanced safety of driver and
vehicles. The cable-pull system is forecasted to have less share as
compared to the electric-hydraulic caliper system.
Moreover, manufacturers of electric parking brakes are focusing on significant
weight saving brake systems as compared to conventional parking brake
systems, which supports enhanced fuel economy and reduced carbon
emissions. The aforementioned factor is expected to increase the sales
of electric parking brakes over the forecast period.
By vehicle type, the electric parking brake market is segmented into
passenger vehicles, LCVs, and HCVs. The passenger vehicle segment is
sub-segmented into compact vehicles, mid-sized vehicles, luxury
vehicles, and SUVs. The luxury vehicles segment is expected to be
prominent in the global electric parking brake market.
By sales channel, the global electric parking brake market is segmented
into OEM and aftermarket. The OEM segment is projected to be prominent
throughout the forecast period.
By region, the electric parking brake market report studies markets across
several regions such as North America, Latin America, Europe, East
Asia, South Asia, Oceania, and Middle East & Africa. In these
regions, East Asia and Europe are expected to grow with a predominant
share in the global electric parking brake market over the forecast
period. However, East Asia and Latin America are also representing
healthy growth in the electric parking brake market.
Electric Parking Brakes Market: Key Participants
For an in-depth analysis, PMR has divided the market structure in two
levels: tier 1 and tier 2. Tier 1 players are estimated to account for a
~55% share in the global market and generate ~US$ 680 Mn revenue through the sales of electric parking brakes across the world.
The global electric parking brake market is fragmented, owing to the
presence of several manufacturers of electric parking brakes across the
globe. Prominent players in the global electric parking brake market are
focusing on the development of braking business, adopting business
expansions, collaborations, and acquisition strategies to capture
significant share of the global market.
- Continental AG developed the brake system namely MK C1 electrohydraulic brake-by-wire, which reduced CO2 emission by around 5 g/km on average as compared to a conventional non-brake-by-wire hybrid brake system.
- Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd. became a shareholder in Toyota Motor Corporation’s new
company, Toyota Research Institute-Advanced Development, Inc. (TRI-AD),
to develop autonomous technologies consisting of vehicle controllers
responsible for acceleration, braking, and steering based on artificial
intelligence. - Akebono Brake Industry Co., Ltd. developed new construction brake caliper based
on the construction of AD-Type disc brake (floating type disc brake)
that has been modified extensively to meet specific requirements for
automobiles that use electric power sources.
Electric-Hydraulic Caliper Systems and Passenger Vehicles Bank for Future Market Growth
Electric parking brakes require a lot less physical effort and don’t need to be
adjusted like a traditional lever, which creates free space inside the
cabin, especially at the center consol. Most electric parking brakes
disengage automatically when the driver pulls away, which come with an
add-on of automatic hill-hold functionality.
Car gurus determine that the death of the handbrake is approaching soon, as
manufacturers switch to electric parking brakes in huge numbers. Due to
this, cars equipped with electric parking brakes are witnessing
increased sales as compared to those with conventional handbrakes.
Likewise in the electric parking brakes products segment, electric-hydraulic
caliper systems provide improved system performance, greater comfort for
the operator and reduced plumbing costs, which act as key
differentiators from its contemporary – cable-pull systems. Car
manufacturers will observe a decline in the number of car sales with
traditional handbrakes.
Since the handbrake lever and handbrake cables are no longer needed in
electric parking brakes, production and assembly of automobiles has been
simplified for automotive engineers. Also the adoption of electric
parking brakes allows significant weight saving compared to mechanical
parking brakes.
Such advantages are paving the way for passenger cars towards intense
adoption of electric parking brakes. More importantly, SUVs (Sports
Utility Vehicles) are getting more drawn towards electric parking brakes
technology, followed by luxury cars in the passenger cars segment.
Some of the key players involved in the manufacturing of the global electric
parking brakes are Continental AG, Hyundai Mobis, SKF Group, Aisin
Seiki Co., Ltd., Akebono Brake Industry Co., Ltd., Hitachi, Ltd., Brembo
S.p.A., Robert Bosch GmbH, Sanken Electric Co., Ltd., ZF
Friedrichshafen AG, Shougang Group Co., Ltd., Toshiba Corporation, ELLA
GmbH & Co. KGaA, and DURA Automotive Systems.
