Abstract
This Intelligence Set includes the fourth edition of the electronic braking systems report, along with profiles of Bosch, Continental, Delphi and TRW Automotive.
It offers excellent value for money and will allow you to discover where the market is heading, what the latest innovations are, and how your competitors are performing.
Ever since the first electronic stability programme (ESP) system appeared on a Mercedes-Benz model in 1995, braking system manufacturers have been predicting significant demand as appreciation of ESP among drivers of the middle and lower segments of the car market grows.
Brake control systems offer assistance to driver' s by controlling the brake pressure on each individual wheel in critical situations. Whilst anti-lock braking systems (ABS) prevent the wheels from locking during braking, and traction control systems (TCS) stop the wheels from spinning on acceleration, ESP systems go one step beyond the functions of both of these, and also reduce the risk of skidding in all traffic situations. So, although it is already standard equipment on many luxury cars, an increasing number of mid-range and small cars are being fitted with the optional unit.
In this fourth edition of the electric braking systems report, just-auto reviews the key market drivers, includes an overview of the emerging markets, and provides a look at the recent trends and innovations in the sector.
Top-level product fitment forecasts through to 2013 predict the market by volume and value worldwide, and by major car-producing region for electronic braking systems, plus thumbnail profiles on the main suppliers are provided, along with an exclusive interview with Dr. Ralf Cramer, executive vice president, Electronic Brake & Safety Systems and member of the Management Board, Continental Automotive Systems .
