Future Market Insights delivers key insights on the global lightweight automotive body panels market in its latest report titled "Lightweight Automotive Body Panels Market: Global Industry Analysis and Opportunity Assessment, 2016-2026." Global sales of lightweight automotive body panels is estimated to be valued at US$ 99.6 Bn by the end of 2016, witnessing a Y-o-Y growth of 3.9% over 2015.

Automotive body panels such as bumpers, hoods, door panels, roof, and trunk lids are manufactured using lightweight materials such as high-strength steel, aluminium, magnesium, and polymers and composites in order to provide desired strength with reduced weight. Lightweight automotive body panels help improve fuel economy and performance of vehicles by reducing the overall weight of the vehicle. About 25% reduction in automobile weight saves 3.5 to 5.0 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions over the lifetime of an average car. Manufacturers today are adopting lightweight body panels in vehicles in order to comply with government regulations pertaining to greenhouse gas emissions.
