Global Body in White Market by Vehicle Type, Construction (Monocoque, Frame Mounted), Manufacturing Method (Cold Stamping, Hot Stamping, Roll Forming), Material (Steel, Aluminum, Magnesium, CFRP), and Region - Global Forecast to 2027
[151 Pages Report] The global body in white market for automotive size was valued at USD 77.0 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 90.5 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 2.0% during the forecast period 2022-2027. . Increasing global vehicle production of passenger cars, electric vehicles, light commercial vehicles and medium & heavy commercial vehicles along with a reduction in the vehicle weight to meet the fuel economy and emission standards are expected to boost the market. However, the high cost of manufacturing methods is considered as a restraining factor for the growth in the market.
Electric vehicles sales segment is estimated to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period
Increasing electric vehicle sales is another driver for the BIW revenue growth, as these vehicles require lightweight solutions in the form of material as well as manufacturing methods to achieve higher mileage by the battery. Majority of the BIW component manufacturers have introduced new lightweight solutions for their customers, which are in line with the electric vehicles manufacturing safety standards.
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest market during the forecast period
The Asia Pacific region was the largest market for body in white in the world in 2018. This market has witnessed rapid year-on-year growth, even with a slowdown in the production of passenger cars; however, the other vehicle segments have been steadily growing, and there is no adverse impact on the market revenue with the increase in the adoption of lightweight solutions.
China has been the major contributor to the BIW market in the APAC region, with approximately 25 million cars produced every year. It is the largest revenue generator for the market. However, Japan is estimated to be the fastest-growing market with the adoption of strong emission regulations and purchase of electric vehicles with lightweight solutions, which makes the region the largest revenue market for BIW globally.
Europe market is expected to register the fastest growth during the forecast period
Europe is estimated to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. Germany is expected to lead the market due to the presence of large automakers and focus on R&D on new technology. The massive sales of electric vehicles in the region coupled with the projected boost in sales due to the presence of supporting regulations towards the manufacture and use of these automobiles is expected to subsequently drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current market size of the body in white market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down approach was employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources such as company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications [for example, publications of Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA), European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, Inc. (JAMA), Automotive manufacturing solutions (AMS), The international council on clean transportation (ICCT), Asociacion Mexicana De La Industria Automotriz Amia (AMIA) – Mexican Association of the Automotive Industry, Precision Metal forming Association (PMA), Material recycling association of India (MRAI), Fabricators & Manufacturers Association Intl. (FMA), Other component manufacturer associations], magazine articles, directories, technical handbooks, World Economic Outlook, trade websites, and technical articles have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the global body in white market.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring and understanding of the metal forming market for automotive scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with market experts from both the demand- (Maruti Suzuki, NIO, Ford, Tata Motors and others) and supply-side (Benteler, EDAG, Magna and others) players across four major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World (Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa). Approximately 40% and 60% of primary interviews have been conducted from the demand and supply side, respectively. Primary data has been collected through questionnaires, e-mails, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, we have strived to cover various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, R&D, and administration, to provide a holistic viewpoint in our report.
After interacting with industry experts, we conducted brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report. Following is the breakdown of primary respondents.

Market Size Estimation
The top-down approach has been used to estimate and validate the size of the Global Body in white market. In this approach, the vehicle production statistics for each vehicle type (passenger car, LCV, MHCV) at the country and regional levels, respectively, have been considered.
To determine the market size, in terms of volume, by vehicle type, the vehicle production numbers have been considered. The average BIW weight for each vehicle segment has been estimated for all regions by model mapping major vehicles in each country. The value obtained is multiplied with the total vehicle production to get the total BIW weight in tons for each region. To estimate the market value, the material composition of the vehicle in each segment (obtained from primary and secondary research) is multiplied with the BIW weight, and the cost of the materials. The components which are manufactured through a method of forming are identified, and the total share in percentage is considered. The summation of the country-level market gives the regional market and further summation of the regional market provides the global metal forming market for automotive.
