Top Impacting Factors
Market Trends
Cheaper than alloy wheels
The price of alloy wheels is very high compared to normal steel wheel since, the alloy wheels are made of forged aluminium alloys. Moreover, the manufacturing cost of alloy wheels are very high compared to normal steel wheel. The alloy wheels also increase the price of vehicle so, they are mostly used in the high-end models and the low-end models uses steel wheels to reduce the price of the car. For instance, a particular consumer wants to give an aesthetic look, protect the steel rims of the wheel, and also wants to spend less amount, then the customer can go for automotive wheel cap. The starting price of automotive wheel cap is $2 whereas, starting price of alloy wheel is $20. The lower price of automotive wheel cap is expected to drive the growth of automotive wheel cap market.
Rise in alloy wheels market
Alloy wheels are made from alloys of aluminium and magnesium along with other elements. Alloys wheels have better strength, heat conduction, better appearance, antirust & corrosion resistant and reduce the of weight vehicle to limit the amount of exhaust emission. Since, light weight increases the fuel economy and energy required to move & steer the vehicle thus, saving fuel. For instance, the change in customer preferences for style and aesthetic appearance of vehicle, low maintenance cost of alloy rims and increasing buying power are going to boost the market growth. The rise in passenger vehicle manufacturing and the increasing demand for electric vehicles is also driving the growth of the alloy wheels market thus hampering the growth of automotive wheel-cap market.
