The latest Strategy Analytics Powertrain, Body, Safety & Chassis Service ( PBCS ) service and Electric Vehicle Service ( EVS ) report, Cost and Technical Challenges Will Limit the Automotive CO2 Sensors Opportunity analyzes the possible market opportunity of CO2 sensors in automotive.

Key Points: 
  • The latest Strategy Analytics Powertrain, Body, Safety & Chassis Service ( PBCS ) service and Electric Vehicle Service ( EVS ) report, Cost and Technical Challenges Will Limit the Automotive CO2 Sensors Opportunity analyzes the possible market opportunity of CO2 sensors in automotive.
  • Such a feature is run on the R744 (carbon dioxide, CO2) refrigerant and so requires fitment of a CO2 sensor to detect leakage of the gas that can asphyxiate occupants.
  • However, there are many hurdles facing CO2 sensors in the automotive sector, says Kevin Mak , principal analyst in the Global Automotive Practice (GAP).
  • This, in turn, has limited market opportunities for CO2 sensors in the automotive.
