Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ndpddp/automotive_hvac) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the International Automotive HVAC Market - Global Trends & Forecast to 2018" report to their offering.

The global market revenue from automotive HVAC and cabin comfort systems is expected to grow from $76.1 billion in 2013 to $124.1 billion by 2018 at a CAGR of 10.27% over the five years. The fastest growing market is for heated seats, while the largest market is for HVAC systems.

The HVAC systems and power windows are commonly found in most of the vehicles these days, whereas the adoption of other cabin comfort features is increasing at a slow pace due to usage of these features mainly in the luxury vehicle segment. For the ease of estimation, automotive HVAC systems are considered as a segment, and the other four systems have been included together to form the cabin comfort systems segment.

These systems, as stated earlier, have varying functions in an automobile. The HVAC system helps maintain a pleasant climate inside the vehicle, while power windows ease the process of lowering or pushing up a window. Vehicle manufacturers have been equipping their vehicles with features that are not only a function, but also provide them with an added advantage over their competitors for attracting potential buyers.
