In this report, Technavio market research
analysts have pinpointed the key factors impacting the market shares and growth
prospects of the global EPB market from 2015 to 2019. To calculate the market
size, analysts have considered the production units of EPB in the market by

With the traditional markets in Europe and
the Americas experiencing a decline in demand, the automotive industry in
developing economies is sustaining the growth of electric parking brakes. Many
international vehicle manufacturers such as GM, which already has 28 production
plants in China and plans to open three more in the next few years, will buoy
the market demand for EPBs during the forecast period. On the basis of
production units, the global automotive market is expected to reach over 118
million units by 2019.
