Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/99vpp6/analysis_of_the) has announced the addition of the "Analysis of the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Market in Europe" report to their offering. Vehicle safety and driver comfort attract tremendous interest within the automotive industry, with legislations to touch every aspect of safety from avoiding collisions to pedestrian security. Given that autonomous driving is a real possibility, ADAS is expected to take centre-stage for chassis and safety systems in an automobile. This will channelise research and development in various safety-related applications. Driven by legislation and cost effective vehicles, the ADAS market in Europe is entering a new phase of applications integrating both safety and comfort. Covering the European ADAS market from 2012 to 2019, this study shows how the ADAS market is expected to unfold by 2019.

ACC and FCW are also gaining significance in the European market. Key Questions this Study Will Answer - What is the current and future scope of ADAS applications across the passenger car segment in Europe? Will ADAS turn out to be a lucrative market with high growth potential? - What is the importance of ADAS, and what are the benefits of adopting ADAS-technology-based applications? - How would a standard fitment of some ADAS applications help reduce fatality rates and improve vehicle safety? What are the challenges the industry faces, and how can it overcome them? - Which are the key OEMs and suppliers that are expected to lead the market? What are the strategies of key suppliers and OEMs in the ADAS application area in the next 5 years? - What are the limitations or drawbacks to adopting ADAS-technology-based applications?

And this will put a great deal of pressure on the economic side of hybrids, particularly battery costs. Because nobody will meet 54 miles per gallon in the US without a substantially higher mix of hybrids than they have today. So hybridisation is going to be a major factor and this puts a lot of pressure on economics. Hybrid vehicles, although not yet attaining very significant market share, are nevertheless a necessary and growing part of the future powertrain mix.
