Aluminum is the most preferred material for use in autos and commercial vehicles, as it provides the safest, fastest, and most eco-friendly, and cost-effective approach to upsurge performance and fuel economy of the vehicles. Additionally, it also reduces emissions while maintaining durability of vehicles. The Aluminium Association's Aluminum Transportation Group (ATG) states that utilization of aluminum saved 108 million more barrels of crude oil in energy, as compared to a fleet of traditional steel vehicles. Ongoing research by OEMs to develop new aluminum alloys, with improved strength and ductility, has been encouraging automakers to shift from steel towards aluminium. Consequently, automotive aluminum has been recognized as the fastest growing application for the global aluminum market, projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% over the forecast period.
