The figure below illustrates the break-up of the profile of industry experts who participated in primary discussions.
The hybrid system market for North America is estimated to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The increasingly stringent CAFE regulations have led to an increase in the demand for hybrid and electric vehicles in the region. Thus, the region is expected to see the fastest growth in the sales of hybrid and electric vehicles during the forecast period. Hence, the market for hybrid system in North America is also expected to grow in line with the growth of hybrid and electric vehicles.
The hybrid system market is dominated by a few global players. Some of the key manufacturers operating in the market are Bosch (Germany), Continental (Germany), Denso (Japan), ZF (Germany), and Valeo (France). There are certain key innovators gaining attention in the hybrid system market including UQM Technologies (US), Schaeffler (Germany), and Johnson Controls (US).
The factor that is restraining the market is the lack of standardization of hybrid technologies such as high voltage battery. There is no such specific industry standards or specification available. The components such as electric motors, starter generators, and energy storage systems can be standardized in order to decrease the R&D cost of developing the hybrid systems. Standardizing the system components is difficult for the manufacturers, and this restrains the market growth. The hybrid system market comprises several regional players and is dominated by a few global players. Some of the key manufacturers operating in the market are Bosch (Germany), Continental (Germany), Denso (Germany), ZF (Germany), and Johnson Controls (US).
