In just 10 years, the sales volume of China's auto aftermarket has increased from 88 billion yuan in 2005 to 800 billion yuan in 2015. The rapid and rapid development has filled this market with various opportunities. Domestic Feile sound and snow Wright and Taiwan's Longda Electronics, Yiguang and other large enterprises began to set foot in the field of automotive lighting.


LED automotive lighting market prospects


According to the data, the total number of LEDs for exterior lighting in 2015 reached 2.79 billion. It is expected that there will be 3.67 billion in 2020, and the number of LED packages in far and near lights and position lights will exceed 15%. The number of LED modules in the lamp module has the highest growth rate, with a compound annual growth rate of 23%.

Nowadays, automotive lighting is transforming from the traditional lighting field to the emerging LED field, and the share of LED lighting for automobiles is also increasing year by year. It is predicted that the global automotive LED lighting market will reach 7 billion US dollars by 2020, with a compound annual growth rate of over 18%.


LED automotive lighting development status


Although China has become the world's largest automobile consumer market, more than half of the global automotive lighting market is monopolized by the two giants of Philips and Osram, and the core technology of automotive lighting is blocked.


At present, due to the strict price requirements of the automotive lighting suppliers in the market, not only the technical threshold is high, but also the certification time is relatively long. In addition, LED companies' lack of in-depth understanding of automotive industry standards, manufacturing, process systems and imperfect test equipment configuration also restrict LED companies from entering this field. Therefore, there are not many LED companies involved in automobile lighting in China. Only Taiwanese companies such as Ronda and Everlight, as well as mainland enterprises such as Feile Audio and Snowlight, have exerted their strength.


However, the international giants have frequently tried to seize a larger market share before the market breaks out.


First of all, Philips Auto Lighting changed its name to “Philips Auto Life”, which is an important measure taken by Philips in response to the automobile culture and automobile life in the new era. This means that Philips will invest more resources in the aftermarket, especially in the Chinese market, to further expand the market.


Secondly, OSRAM is a leading supplier in the field of automotive lighting. With its advanced lamp technology and excellent quality assurance, OSRAM has an unrivalled lead in the field of automotive lighting. However, in September last year, OSRAM's second plant in Kunshan, Jiangsu Province, was officially put into operation to further expand its production capacity in the region. The new facility will employ approximately 500 people, mainly producing lighting products for the automotive and display sectors.


In this international context, domestic LED companies have suffered from the technological blockade of international giants. In recent years, domestic LED companies have also made efforts to break through the encirclement of Philips and Osram.


At the same time, LED packaging companies have also entered the automotive LED market through acquisition or strategic cooperation.


In 2013, Guangzhou Hongli Optoelectronics entered the automotive LED market through 100% holding of Fo Da signal, taking the lead. It is understood that the annual growth rate of Hongli Optoelectronics' automotive lighting business is above 40%, and the gross profit margin has increased from 34.35% in 2011 to 44.25% in 2013.


It is true that Philips and Osram currently have absolute advantages in both the core technology and the market holding rate in the automotive lighting market, but as more and more Chinese companies continue to explore in this field, the monopoly situation in the field of automotive lighting After all, it will be broken.


LED car lighting development trend


According to relevant statistics, the penetration rate of LED products for LED vehicles in 2012 was 80%, and it is expected to rise to 90% by 2020. The LED taillights have a penetration rate of nearly 40% in 2012 and will increase to 67% in 2020. LED daytime lights and fog lights will climb from 20% in 2012 to 50% in 2020. LED headlights will rise from 21% in 2012 to 21% in 2020.


It can be seen that with the further breakthrough of technology and the increasing awareness of LEDs, the penetration rate of LED lamps in automotive lighting will become larger and larger. In the near future, LED lights will be able to form a three-pronged trend with laser headlights and xenon headlights, and may even become the mainstream of automotive lighting.


It is observed that the global automotive LED lighting market will mainly present three major development trends:


1. Innovative technologies are constantly evolving. At this stage, Xenon headlights, LED headlights and laser headlights are the three mainstream products in the automotive lighting market. Technological innovation has promoted the development of organic LED lamps, enabling LED headlights to provide superior lighting conditions.


2. The interior lighting of the car is becoming more and more popular. The interior lighting period of the car is used in high-end automotive products, but as the cost of LED lights has decreased year by year, it has been adopted by more and more low-end cars.


3, laser and organic LED lights development space. Laser and organic LED lamps are advanced technologies in automotive lighting. However, due to cost reasons, it is generally only applied to luxury cars. But as costs fall, laser and organic LED lamp applications will become more common.



The reason why automotive lighting can stand out in many LED applications is because of its large market size and high product added value. With the increase of competitive products, the sales channels will also be diversified. Whether it is a traditional automobile company or a new entrant, in the face of an increasingly open market, constantly improving itself, providing excellent products and quality services is the way to survive. China's LED lighting companies should seize the opportunity of the development of automotive lighting, and constantly improve their technological competitiveness, in order to win a place in this vast "blue ocean" market.
