From Steel to Smart: Germany’s Automotive Composite Leaf Springs Market Poised for USD 17.7 Million by 2035
Germany Automotive Composite Leaf Springs Market
The Germany Automotive Composite Leaf Springs Market is segmented by installation type, process type, location type, and vehicle type from 2025 to 2035.
NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, November 7, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Germany Automotive Composite Leaf Springs Market is projected to grow at an 8.5% CAGR, reaching approximately USD 17.7 million by 2035. The market expansion is fueled by rising demand for lightweight, fuel-efficient vehicles, government sustainability initiatives, and increasing electric vehicle (EV) adoption. Advanced composite materials such as fiberglass, carbon fiber, and aramid fibers are being incorporated into suspension systems, offering superior strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability.
The market is gaining momentum as automotive OEMs and suppliers pursue emissions reduction, improved vehicle handling, and weight optimization. Composite leaf springs are replacing traditional steel components across passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), and medium-duty platforms. Regulatory pressure, consumer preference for efficiency, and advancements in High-Pressure Resin Transfer Molding (HP-RTM) and Prepreg Layup processes are accelerating adoption.
