Automotive sunroofs may be fixed, vent, or sliding roofs that allow light and fresh air to enter the vehicle and also protects against the sun and wind. They can be operated manually or can be driven by motors. They are available in different sizes, shapes, and styles. The first company to come up with sunroof as a standard fitment was Nash Motors Company in 1937. In the subsequent decades, sunroofs became a premium feature among the ultra-luxury vehicles. During the 1990s, sunroofs gradually made way into premium and mid-segment cars as the large-scale investments by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and component manufacturers made it relatively affordable. Currently, many companies are coming up with sunroofs as a standard fitment, which can be operated manually or electronically. While manual sunroofs use levers for the sliding motion, electronically operated sunroofs use motor-driven cables. Most sunroofs that are currently available are electronically driven. Sunroof systems can be factory installed or can be installed aftermarket.

EVs are not the pollution panacea anymore. At least those that obtain power from the power grids are not. Recent reality checks by rationalists worldwide have sharply debunked the myth of the all-encompassing EV solution to vehicular pollution. Although EVs do not emit harmful gases, coal and oil and gas are produced by dirty, pollutive means (read: conventional coal or oil and gas). This has been calculated to roughly equal (or sometimes exceed) that what a conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) car does. Therefore, EVs contribute to the destruction of the environment, maybe far more than the pollution caused by conventional cars do.

The automotive sales have improved worldwide. With the increase in consumers' confidence in various economies, such as the US, the automotive sales in terms of the units sold have improved. In 2016, the largest automotive market, China accounted for 24.9 million units, which are over 27% of the global automotive sales in 2015. In China, the massive population along with strong economic growth is the driving factor for the rapidly growing automotive market. Apart from a strong domestic market, China is an export hub for automobiles and auto components with most of the international original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and tire suppliers having off-shore manufacturing facilities in the country.

In the recent past, safety has become a paramount focus area for OEMs and the entire automotive value chain. This can be primarily attributed to stringent regulatory push advocating safety on roads along with customers attributing safety as a key purchase influencer. Apart from these factors, the intense competition in the industry has forced OEMs to equip more number of safety features in an effort to gain market share.

ECU is a computer that controls one or many electrical systems in a vehicle. Modern ECUs employ both microprocessors and microcontrollers depending on the computational requirements. The operation of an ECU is similar to that of the basic input/output system (BIOS) of a computer. The ECU receives inputs from on-board the sensors and provides instructions to the electrical systems and sub-systems based on the received inputs. A modern vehicle may have as many as 80 ECUs to manage its electrical systems.

The utilization and consumption of rechargeable batteries are growing globally, covering all major sectors like consumer electronics, energy, automotive, and telecom. With advanced technologies and developments, battery efficiency (the maximum output power with respect to size and weight) has improved dramatically. The rapid growth of the global green vehicle market in the automotive sector has fueled the sales of high-density, high-power, small-size batteries especially Li-ion batteries globally. This increase in the global rechargeable battery market has prompted companies to become knowledgeable about battery management, thereby driving the global BMS market.

An icemaker or an ice machine is a consumer device or a kind of refrigeration machinery for the production of ice. The size of an ice machine generally varies depending on the requirement. For instance, a small-scale ice maker is usually used as an individual appliance or fitted inside a freezer. However, large-scale production requires separate ice makers to be installed. A typical ice maker consists of control modules, motors, thermostats, heater terminals, valves, and blades. The term icemaker is more versatile, as some manufacturers refer to their products as packaged ice machines, whereas others use ice maker.

The global commercial beverage blender market is segmented on the basis of blender capacity, container construction, and end-users. Beverage blenders with plastic containers are more popular than the stainless steel and glass containers. This is mainly because of their low price, durable nature, and lightweight. Nowadays, many beverage blenders with plastic containers are being made available with improved quality such as Bisphenol A (BPA) free and scratch resistant features.
