Automotive Passive Safety System Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Airbag, Seatbelts, Occupant Sensing System, Passive Safety, Child Safety Systems, Pedestrian Safety System), By Vehicle Type (Passenger cars, Commercial Vehicles) Others and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The automotive safety features are becoming more advanced, reliable, and innovative over the period. But there are many vehicles on the road with a low level of design for the seats and head restraints causing major fatalities during the collision. According to data provided by EuroNCAP, about two million whiplash injuries occurs on the European roads per year. Majorly the whiplash injury occurs during the rear-end collision of the vehicles. European carmakers are making significant improvements in the safety of cars. EuroNCAP assessments are making automobile manufacturers improvise and install passive safety systems for every occupant in the vehicle. The increasing technological advancements in automotive passive safety systems such as knee airbags, inflatable seatbelts, and intelligent seatbelts are also expected to drive the automotive passive safety system market over the forecast period.

The increasing awareness among consumers regarding safety is also expected to drive the market over the forecast period. Customers increasing expenditure towards the safety features in the vehicles has also led to the generation of numerous opportunities for the market players. Also, many automobile manufacturers are considering the installation of the passive safety system in the vehicle owing to growing stringent government safety regulations. The high installation and replacement cost of the passive safety system is expected to restrain the growth of the market.
