Automotive curtain airbags market in the Americas: largest market

The automotive curtain airbags market in the Americas produced 37.98 million units in 2015. In 2015. The sharp focus on vehicle safety systems (both by OEMs and consumers) is expanding the scope of innovation in active safety systems in modern vehicles. Similar importance is given to passive safety systems, such as airbags, seat belts, and the use of strong materials to build the automotive body.

Governments have also taken major steps to mandate certain safety features in vehicles such as frontal and passenger airbags. These factors are deepening the penetration of curtain airbags in vehicles. North America had the highest percent of vehicles equipped with curtain airbags, and Technavio researchers expect more than 80% of vehicles manufactured in the Americas to be fitted with curtain airbags over the next four years.

The automotive curtain airbags market in APAC produced 36.69 million units in 2015. APAC had a share of 33.91% of the overall curtain airbags market in 2015, and the region will likely achieve 41% of the total market share by 2020. APAC represents one of the fastest-growing automotive markets in terms of volume. This is because APAC hosts fast-growing economies and production bases for volume and luxury-segment passenger cars such as China, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and South Korea, among others.

Automotive curtain airbags market in EMEA

The automotive curtain airbags market in EMEA produced 33.54 million units in 2015. Curtain airbags and other safety devices (such as frontal airbags, side airbags, and driver assistance systems) are common in mass-segment vehicles in this region.
