"Two trends in vehicle sales and output are making lightweighting even more important:
- the rise of SUV and light truck sales growth,
- the quickening transition to electric vehicles.
These shifts have made it even more important to use lightweight, high-strength materials, for example in reducing fuel consumption. Electric vehicles batteries and battery enclosures add significant weight to vehicles, with manufacturers looking to materials to offset this weight."

GLOBAL CHALLENGES AND MITIGATION ACTIONS





Due to the relatively small share of exports to Russia (around 3.45% of the CECIMO Total MT exports), it is not expected to have a significant impact on the European TM sector on a global scale. The most significant impact for European manufacturers could be on energy prices (gas, fuel), as well as on the prices of some materials (steel, titanium, aluminium, palladium, vanadium). - Source: CECIMO
