Frost & Sullivan’s Insight on the Future of Advanced Braking and Stability Control Systems
 

The European braking systems market is currently dominated by hydraulic braking systems. The Electro Hydraulic Braking system launched by DaimlerChrysler and Bosch has failed to meet the expectations of the industry. Hence, suppliers are developing other advanced braking systems such as hybrid; Electro Mechanical and Electronic Wedge Braking systems. Though the failure of EHB systems slowed down the development of advanced braking systems, these advanced systems are in the testing and prototyping stages and are to be launched in the market in the near future. Similarly, the growth rate of Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is looking prospective than that of Antilock Braking Systems. By the end of this decade, standard ESP systems are estimated to have greater penetration while advanced ESP systems are also expected to penetrate the market. The research service titled "Strategic Analysis of the European Market for Advanced Braking and Stability Control Systems" provides in-depth analysis of the market for advanced braking systems, which include hydraulic, electro hydraulic, hybrid and electro mechanical braking systems and stability control systems which include standard and advanced ESP systems. The study also includes a brief discussion about the future of braking and stability control systems in Europe.
