Summary

The Cockpit Report provides a market overview, looking at issues such as outsourcing, design, functionality, new innovations and materials amongst others. The report provides profiles of all the major players in the industry, and also includes OE installation forecasts.

There is no hard and fast rule on the outsourcing of vehicle cockpits and instrument panels with supply patterns varying by geographic region and by original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Manufacturers like GM and PSA source as many of the constituent components themselves and assemble the system or module in-house. Other companies such as BMW, Daimler, Ford and VW have elected to outsource their requirements and have provided the drivers for much of the growth in the market. The Cockpit Report is a vital resource in gaining an overview of this changing sector.

Report Background

As a result of consolidation across the supplier industry in recent years the number of tier one suppliers offering instrument panel and cockpit modules has reduced and a number of major players have emerged in the marketplace. The leading companies in this market are common on a European and worldwide basis with some smaller regional players evident in countries such as China and Japan. Faurecia, the leading French automotive components supplier, has undertaken research into the instrument panel market which shows the following variations in the market shares held by the leading tier ones in Europe and on a worldwide basis.
