Theft and Technical Trends: A global analysis of the future market for steering locks

Theft and Technical Trends: A global analysis of the future market for steering locks published by SBD in July, 2010. This report consists of 36 Pages and the price starts from US $ 1920.

Introduction

Abstract

Mechanical and electrical steering and transmission lock suppliers' concerns over the future of their products prompted SBD to produce this report that analyses the impact of global technology developments in this market. Asian, European, North American and emerging market forces are strategically evaluated in order to give a complete view of the opportunities and threats to these conventional vehicle security components.

This report will help you:

• Understand the effect of legislation changes in the North American market on the necessity of steering locks
• Forecast future global volumes of mechanical immobiliser products up to 2015
• Identify how the market for low cost vehicles is influencing the choice of security components like mechanical steering locks
• Recognise how increased demand and fashion for electric vehicles and in vehicle technologies is making an impact on component fitment

The purpose of this report is to look at how factors like new technologies, common global designs, reduction in cost and weight, and electric/hybrid vehicles could affect the future demand for steering column locks compared to alternative solutions to the security legislation needs.
