What is Automotive Subframe?

The subframe is a component in the vehicle's chassis. This subframe component is a separate structure within a significantly larger monocoque or body-on-frame shell where the engine, drivetrain, suspension, and steering components are housed. A subframe has three basic forms, all of which have varying functions. These are mainly the simple axle type, the perimeter frame which supports the engine, and the perimeter frame which supports the engine, transmission, and full suspension.

An automotive subframe and cross member have similar functions, but they are not interchangeable. Structurally, a subframe can include a cross member. The automotive subframe is typically constructed from welded steel tubing or thick pressed steel panels. The attachment of the subframe depends on the vehicle type, but it is usually bolted or welded. A bolted subframe is fitted with springs or rubber bushings to dampen the vibrations produced while on the road. It can also be hydroformed.

Primarily, the subframe works by supporting integral components within the vehicle's chassis. The main purpose of it includes isolating vibrations and harshness from the rest of the body, as well as spreading high chassis loads over the vast expanse of relatively thin sheet metal of a monocoque body shell. Moreover, along with the subframe, the force produced by the engine and transmission is significantly reduced. This automotive subframe is vital as it makes building the engine, transmission, and steering assemblies possible in one location. It also allows the installation of these finished pieces into a different place in the vehicle. There are mainly two types of products includes rear and front subframes.

Rear subframes serve the purpose of carrying the rear suspension and occasionally drivetrain components for rear-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicles. The separate rear and front subframes help to reduce their overall weight and subsequent cost. On the other side, when damaged, the subframe can result in unusual vibrations and harshness as we drive. If left unattended, these issues could result in long-term problems that could impair the car's drivability.

Global Automotive Subframe Market Overview

The demand for high-performance and fuel-efficient vehicles is growing among the masses. This is further putting emphasis on reducing the weight of the vehicle, thereby enhancing its performance. This trend has compelled manufacturers to design new vehicles and subframes or chassis that will result in lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles. Moreover, the other rising concern is the emission of harmful gases from the exhaust of the vehicle. Hence, in order to monitor emission control, manufacturers should design low-emission vehicles, which raises the need to design low-weight chassis. The automobile manufacturers are producing chassis systems with innovations and advancements owing to increasing demand for premium and improved performance vehicles. The rising technological advancements and innovations in vehicles are fueling demand for advanced subframes or chassis systems. For instance, AUDI AG manufactured a new car called Audi A6, which has a light-weight chassis and electric-assist steering. Such features can improve the driving experience, which in turn, augments the demand for luxurious vehicles.

The automotive subframe is a major structural component that is supposed to last the life of the vehicle. However, there are instances where the subframe can become damaged or rusted to the point where it can no longer do its job. The global automotive subframes market can be restricted by the cost of automotive subframes systems due to the cost to replace a subframe can be quite high. The suppliers in the automotive materials market are under high pressure to maintain the costs, along with delivering high-quality materials to meet the stringent quality control and tests defined by the OEMs, and Tier-1 suppliers. The growing sales of light commercial vehicles and electric vehicles increase the production of electric vehicles which in turn drives the growth of the automotive subframe market. The adoption of electric vehicles in developed countries has increased owing to the greenhouse emission regulations by the government and the increasing price of fuel. For instance, according to Statistics Netherlands (CBS), in 2017, there were around 22,000 electric vehicles in the Netherlands, which is around a 60% increase from the previous year.

Global Automotive Subframe Market Segmentation Analysis

The Global Automotive Subframe Market is segmented on the basis of Product, Application, and geography.

Automotive Subframe Market, By Product

Steel Subframe

Aluminum Alloy Subframe

Based on Product, the market is bifurcated into Steel Subframe, Aluminum Alloy Subframe. Steel Subframe accounted for the largest market share and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.46% during the forecast period. The automotive steel industry faces numerous challenges including carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Weight reduction in different vehicles can help to achieve improved fuel efficiency, creating less impact on the environment. Materials such as metal composites and hot forming steel have immense potential to cut the weights in vehicles.

Automotive Subframe Market, By Application

Front Subframe

Rear Subframe

On the basis of Application, the Global Automotive Subframe Market has been segmented into Front Subframe, Rear Subframe. Front Subframe accounted for the largest market share and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR of 5.78% during the forecast period. Lightweighting is also a strong driver for the application of aluminium in the front subframe. An excellent example is the BMW double-joint spring-strut front axle which is constructed of aluminium. The use of aluminium leads to a weight reduction of 30% compared to a similar axle made of steel, minimizing the unsprung mass of the vehicle. The application of aluminium delivers immediate results in the responsiveness of the suspension and steering systems.

Automotive Subframe Market, By Geography
