The Development of Automobile Air Conditioning

With the rapid growth of the automobile industry, especially cars in the past few years, the auto parts industry has also developed rapidly. As an important component to improve the ride comfort of automobiles, automobile air conditioners have been recognized by the majority of automobile manufacturers and consumers. As of August 2013, domestically, the air-conditioning installation rate of domestic cars has been close to 100%, and the installation rate of other models is also increasing year by year. Automotive air-conditioning and steam installations have become an important functional component in automobiles.

As the main air compressor production base in the world, my country has benefited from the rapid development of the national economy and the automobile industry in recent years, and my country's automobile air-conditioning industry has also achieved rapid development.

Up to now, my country has basically formed a complete range of automobile air-conditioning production systems with large, medium and small supporting facilities, with an annual output of 5-6 million sets of air conditioners for cars, 400,000 sets of air conditioners for medium and heavy vehicles, and 20 sets of air conditioners for buses. The production capacity of 10,000 sets can not only fully meet the production and development needs of my country's automobile industry, but also some enterprises have the ability to enter the international market.

Although China's automotive air-conditioning market has great potential, it also faces severe challenges. The rising global raw material prices have brought huge cost pressure to the industry; in terms of products, the production of air conditioners for trucks and some special vehicles is relatively small, and the market demand cannot be satisfied; On the one hand, the development trend of energy saving and environmental protection poses new challenges to the industry. With the vigorous development of China's auto industry, consumers will pay more attention to the safety, stability, comfort, entertainment, assistance, energy saving and emission reduction of cars in the future, and some new car air conditioners that are more in line with energy saving and environmental protection requirements Products will be more popular; in terms of technological development trends, automotive air conditioners will develop in the direction of environmental protection air conditioners, green air conditioners, small energy-saving, comfort, and automation.
