Automotive Airbag Market

Automotive Airbag Market to Extent an Assessed Value of 2000 Mn units By 2027
Increasing public awareness about vehicle safety is driving necessity for standard fitment in
vehicles, coupled with frontal and curtain airbags. Crash tests are being implemented for
manufacturers by governments, providing safety benefits to customers. Various safety standards are
imposed on vehicles, based on an assessment, for occupant protection, pedestrian protection, and

to drive the market growth.
In addition, growth of the market is also attributed to other factors including increasing utilisation of
curtain airbags, growing demand for high performance luxury vehicles, rising number of road
accidents, technology advancements, advanced safety technology, and surging demand for external
airbag. However, emergence and adoption of several substitute safety technologies such as
advanced seatbelts, and antilock braking system are estimated to restrain growth of the market.
By product type, drivers’ airbags will remain sought-after in the market. Over 500 Mn units of
drivers’ airbags are estimated to be sold in 2017. In addition, sales of side airbags are projected to
exhibit highest 5.6% CAGR through 2027, followed by curtain airbags and knee airbags. Although
