Natural gas vehicles (NGV) are alternative fuel vehicles that use natural gas in place of diesel or gasoline as fuel for combustion. Natural gas is used in two forms in automobiles: compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG). LNG is stored as a supercooled liquid and is used for combustion. A temperature range between -184 degrees Fahrenheit and -274 degrees Fahrenheit is maintained for the storage of LNG. The advantage of using LNG is that it has a high calorific value that is comparable to that of gasoline. However, it needs high investment in infrastructure to maintain the temperature of the cryogenic liquid. CNG is stored in a gaseous form and an odorant is added to it to detect leakage. Normally, it is stored in high-pressure tanks with a pressure range of 20 to 25 MPa.

A car rack consists of a set of bars mounted on the roof, hitch, or trunk of a car that secures bikes and skiing equipment for transportation. It acts as an anchor, which supports and securely holds many items, amplifying the luggage-carrying capacity of a car.These racks are specialized for mounting bikes, water sports equipment, skis, and boats. While some vehicles come with factory-installed car racks as standard, others can be purchased and fit with aftermarket parts. They can be fit either temporarily or permanently.

RVC: A RVC is a type of automotive camera, which is installed at the rear end of the vehicle, which gets activated when switched to reverse gear. A display unit near driving system helps in reversing and parking.The bus RVC market encompasses the RVCs used in the buses, which are used for reversing and parking by reducing the blind spot. This cannot be used as a replacement for the side view mirrors in the buses.

An automotive winch is defined as a system that is used for towing a vehicle. The system is mostly used by SUVs, pickup trucks, and other commercial vehicles,wherein a towing mechanism is used that envelopes the wire around the drum while keeping the necessary tension on it.
The working principle of an automotive winch is similar to pulley-chain mechanism,wherein the vehicle equipped with winch system is used to pull or tow the other vehicle, which has had a breakdown or has got stuck in the mud or for normal towing purposes. The pulling power of the winch system depends upon its towing capacity and the maximum permissible load of the cable used in the winch system.

An automotive turbocharger is a turbine-driven forced induction device that helps the engine to produce additional power. It improves the overall performance of the vehicle.Variable geometry turbochargers (VGTs) are a family of turbochargers that are generally designed to allow an effective aspect ratio (A/R) of the turbo to be altered based on the change in conditions. This is because the optimum A/R at low engine
speeds is different from the required optimum ratio at high engine speeds. VGT allows the altering of these ratios such that the turbo is maintained at optimum levels at all engine speeds.

The torque vectoring mechanism allows the differential to vary the torque that is available at each driving wheel. It allows the wheels of a vehicle to get a better grip on the road for the launch and handling purposes.The term "torque vectoring" was coined by Jon Wheals, a chief innovation engineer in a UK-based engineering firm, Ricardo, in 2000.Torque vectoring as a technology is developed as an addition to the basic or standard differential. Hence, this technology performs the basic tasks of a usual differential, as well as transmitting torque independently to the driving wheels. This ability to transfer independent torque generally results in the improvement of vehicular handling and traction. Torque vectoring differentials was originally evolved for racing, especially rally racing purposes. Some of the earliest cars to come with this technology belonged to Mitsubishi Motors. This technology has been implemented in production vehicles following a significant development lead time.

The penetration of steel wheels is higher in LCVs and M&HCVs compared with passenger cars, as there is an increasing preference for passenger cars equipped with alloy wheels.Based on application, the market is segmented into passenger cars, LCVs, and M&HCVs.The global automotive steel wheel market grows in direct proportion to the number of vehicles sold each year. The resurgence of the US economy, growing preference for M&HCVs for logistics, increasing sales of low-priced cars, and low penetration of passenger cars in APAC are the key factors driving this market.

A skid plate is an abrasion-resistant material attached to the bottom of a vehicle to avoid damage to the underside when the connection is made with the ground.Skid plates can be used on off-road vehicles and lowered vehicles to prevent harm to the underside.The global skid plate market is growing as the number of off-road activities and adventure enthusiasts is increasing. Also, more people are concerned about their vehicles' underbody protection, which is another factor that fuels the growth of the market. A skid plate is placed underneath the vehicle to protect the main components(including the suspension, oil tank, and transmission system) of a vehicle. Considering the damage tough terrains can cause, a skid plate is essential for any off-road vehicle.
