Global Automotive Plastics Market to reach USD 41.74 billion by 2027.Global Automotive Plastics Market is valued approximately at USD 29.15 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 5.57% over the forecast period 2021-2027. Automotive plastics are extensively used in automotive components and parts as they are durable, easy to manufacture and leads to lightweight designs of automotive components. The increasing demand from the automotive industry has been driving the Automotive Plastics market. According to Statista, global car sales are expected to hit 71.4 million units by 2021, up from 63.8 million units in 2019. There is a growing demand for design simplification and lighter weight automotive components which is boosting the demand for the use of plastic. According to Global eProcure (GEP), in March 2020, Plastics currently account for 50% of the overall vehicle volume but only 10% of the vehicle's weight, in upgraded cars. Also, 10% weight decrease in a vehicle, for example, improves fuel mileage by 5% to 7%. As a result, reducing vehicle weight by 1 kg is expected to reduce carbon emissions by at least 20 kg. Although plastic has less strength when compared to metal components, this may act as a restraint for its growth. However, increasing usage of recyclable plastics to curb the carbon emission acts as an opportunity for Automotive Plastics Market in subsequent decade. Furthermore, rise in investments and R&D in plastic recycling and rising middle class population will provide lucrative opportunities for the market.
