About automotive fuel tanks
Automotive fuel tanks differ in size, design, and capacity depending on the vehicle type. Fuel tanks typically are constructed using materials such as steel and plastic. While plastic high-density polyethylene fuel tanks are made by blow molding, steel or aluminum fuel tanks are welded from the stamped sheets. In general, a fuel tank should avoid fuel leakage and limit evaporation emissions.
The increase in automotive production as well as government regulations globally (for reducing the weight of vehicles and increasing the fuel economy) are contributing to the growth of the market.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global automotive fuel tank market to grow at a CAGR of 5.89% during 2014-2019.
