Biofuels are fuels produced through biological processes such as anaerobic digestion of biological (mostly plant derived) materials rather than geological processes that are involved in the formation of fossil fuels. In this report, we have considered ethanol and

biodiesel as the two major types of biofuels that are used as automotive fuels.Ethanol is produced from starch crops and non-food sources, such as grasses, which are the major sources of cellulosic biomass. On the other hand, biodiesel is produced from oils, fats, and greases and provides significant benefits by reducing carbon emissions when used as an additive with diesel.

This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global automotive auto dimming mirror market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size,we have considered the revenue generated through the sales of dimming mirrors. The report presents the vendor landscape and a corresponding detailed analysis of the four leading vendors in the market.In addition, the report discusses the major drivers that are influencing the market growth and outlines the challenges faced by the vendors and the market at large. It also details the emerging trends and their impact on the current and future market scenarios.

New generation automobiles are equipped with various advanced electronic features,an important one of which is the power window. The power window has many advanced features that make it user-friendly, such as the single-press switch.However, although it offers advantages like ease-of-use to the passenger and driver, it can cause harm if it traps any body part. The anti-pinch system is a solution to this problem as it stops the glass from closing as soon as it detects an obstruction in its path. In the EU and the US, anti-pinch window system manufacturers have to follow set industry standards and specifications.

We have employed a combination of top down and bottom up approaches to arrive at the market size.The market is segmented by geography based on the global construction industry numbers. We have considered Asia-Pacific (APAC), Europe, the Middle East, and

Africa (EMEA), and the Americas as the potential markets for airless radial tires.The report discusses the major drivers influencing the market growth and summarizes the challenges faced by vendors and the market. We examine the key trends emerging in the market and their impact on future market dynamics.

Active seat belt systems consist of electrically driven active retractors, pretensioners,and buckle lifters. The pretensioner tightens or loosens the belt slack as per the road situation. During a hazardous road traffic situation, such as a sudden application of the

brakes or the vehicle skidding, the pretensioner in the active seat belt system tightens the seat belt to fix the driver and the occupants in a safe seating position. The pretensioner thus also alerts the driver to the potentially hazardous situation. At the

same time if the driver actively maneuvers the vehicle avoiding the road accident, the active belt system then loosens the webbing to offer comfort to the driver. The same is done for the other occupants of the car (cars where the rear seat are also equipped with active seat belt system).

Active aerodynamics employs self-adjusting spoilers, open and shut vents, and inmotion height adjustments to keep vehicle firmly ground on the road.The automotive aerodynamics basically deal with two prominent forces that interact with vehicle, downforce and drag. The proper management of these two forces is crucial for the performance of a vehicle.

Lubricants play a vital role in sectors such as automotive, manufacturing, aviation, and marine. They are used in both new and old machines and equipment to reduce friction, which increases with time because of wear and tear of surfaces. Manufacturers are focusing on methods to improve efficiency and effectiveness of lubricants as it will reduce the maintenance cost of machines and equipment and increase their lifespan.
