Over the next decade, automakers will adopt high-strength, low weight aluminum alloys in vehicle design at a faster pace than any time in history. What does this mean for automakers and consumers? How will potential changes to 2025 fuel economy regulations impact next generation cars and trucks? New research from DuckerFrontier detailing expected growth for aluminum vehicle content will answer these questions and more, including the reasons aluminum is chosen over competing materials for doors, hoods and trunk lids, body-in-white, bumpers and crash boxes.

In this webinar you will learn:

  • Growth projections for aluminum through 2028
  • Aluminum’s role on the multi-material vehicle
  • Benefits of designing vehicles with aluminum to consumers, automakers and the nation’s manufacturing base
  • Regulatory impact on the growth of automotive aluminum
  • Additional information from this survey of automakers conducted by DuckerFrontier
