Increasing Production of Wiring Harness to Augment Growth of Automotive Wiring Harness Market
A wiring harness, also called a cable harness, wiring harness or wiring loom, is a flat rectangular piece of metal, usually stainless steel that is used to connect and disconnect electronic components of a system. It can be seen from a distance and has a single or double layer of wires. The wires or cables used in a wiring harness are carefully chosen for their size, length, wire gauge, and resistance to corrosion. The wires are twisted together by an earth wire and sealed with a heat shrink wrap. The cable is then ready to be put into a vehicle.
Market Dynamics
Increasing
production of wiring harness is expected to propel growth of the global
automotive wiring harness market. For instance, in September 2020, Sumi
(Cambodia) Wiring Systems Co., Ltd. increased production to double its
early-year levels and meet the growing demands of overseas markets.
Increasing adoption of connected
cars is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global automotive wiring harness market.
For instance, in November 2020, Hyundai Motor Group and Nvidia announced the
roll-out of the Nvidia Drive connected car platform across all new models from
Hyundai, Kia and Genesis from 2022 onwards.
Among
regions, Africa is expected to witness significant growth in the automotive wiring
harness market, owing to high export of wire harnesses from the region. For
instance, in January 2021, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles announced to source wire
harnesses from new Japanese factories in Morocco.
However, significant
decline in the automotive sector is expected to hinder growth of the automotive wiring harness market.
For instance, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, the
new car registrations in the U.K. decreased by 44% in March 2020 compared that
in March 2019.
Competitive Analysis
Major
players operating in the global automotive wiring harness market include, Sumitomo
