Growing Trend of Electric Vehicles Is Expected To Augment the Automotive Interior Leather Market Growth



 The automotive interior leather has now become an integral part of
the automotive industry. It is used in the interior
of a vehicle to enhance the appearance of the vehicle. The driver and passenger
can experience the texture of the leather during their time inside the vehicle.
It is widely used to enhance the aesthetics of a vehicle. Leather is widely
used in brake handles, armrests, shift knobs & boots, consoles,
infotainment center, instrument panels, steering, and interior trim
applications. Apart from this, it is used to withstand several types of fatigue
such as scratches and wear & tear. The leather used in the automotive
interior is completely different from furniture leather because low-fat alcohol
is used in the production of automotive interior leather, to make it more
resistant to bagging and stretching. Moreover, it provides adequate protection
from the sun’s UV rays.



The increasing demand for lightweight, durable,
and high-quality automotive
interior leather, especially for seats (synthetic
leather), is expected to drive the market growth. Thus, car makers are using
synthetic leathers for some interior parts such as door panels and steering
wheels, to meet the rising consumer demand. Moreover, increasing consumer
preference towards comfort and styling coupled with the safety is expected to
have a significant impact on the automotive interior leather market growth. For instance, in 2018, Adient opened a
fabric plant in Morocco to manufacture high-quality materials for automotive
seating and other interior applications. The company aims to expand its
foothold in southern Europe and northern Africa to serve major auto giants such
as Renault, PSA, Opel, Nissan, and BMW.



Increasing demand for passenger vehicles and the
growing trend of electric vehicles is also expected to augment the automotive
interior leather market growth. For instance, in
August 2018, the Japanese government planned to have all new cars sold in Japan
be electric or hybrid vehicles by 2050. Moreover, many OEMs (Original Equipment
Manufacturers) are also using synthetic and genuine leather in the interiors of
luxury cars, as well as in passenger vehicles. In terms of geography, the
automotive interior leather market is divided into six regions, such as North
America, Asia Pacific, South America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Key
players active in the market are focused on capacity expansion to increase
their market presence. For instance, in November 2019, Scottish Leather Group
planned to open a new production facility in Renfrewshire (Europe) to provide
high-end car seat upholstery.
