Research and Markets: Vehicle Production in Eastern Europe is Forecast to Grow Significantly

DUBLIN, Ireland--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c48086) has announced the addition of The Eastern Europe Aluminium Wheel Demand Forecast Report 1st Edition to their offering.

Major trends including the expansion of the European Union and increasing globalisation have has seen considerable vehicle production shift to Eastern European countries. Now, for the first time wheel demand data and forecasts are available for Eastern European production in the new report The Eastern Europe Aluminium Wheel Demand Forecast.

Aluminium wheel demand for Eastern European vehicle production is forecast to grow fourfold during the ten year period of this forecast. The trend to shift production from high cost to low cost countries is increasing. Traditionally non-European OEMs are investing in new production capacity in Eastern Europe planning high specification models and further driving market demand. Demographic change and the extension of the European Union to Eastern Europe is driving new demand for greater differentiation. Eastern Europe presents an attractive high growth high quality market for suppliers in the alloy wheel sector.

Vehicle production in Eastern Europe is forecast to grow significantly, with new major players like Hyundai Kia, together with traditional European manufacturers, are investing heavily in new plants.

The resulting aluminium wheel demand is forecast to treble.

This forecast report includes fifteen years of data, from 2000 to 2015, with a ten year forecast from 2005 to 2015 based on MIRUs respected forecast car and light truck production volumes. The report covers OEM line fitment of aluminium wheels.

Each report includes detailed analysis of:

World vehicle production
Aluminium wheel manufacturing trends
Demand by Supergroup and OEM
Actual and forecast wheel consumption by vehicle model, wheel size and
 vehicle segment

The Eastern Europe Aluminium Wheel Demand Forecast includes over fifty
detailed full colour charts clearly showing key vehicle production and
wheel demand data.

If you are responsible for:
