The Chinese automotive lighting market is still price-oriented. Although halogen lights
dominate the Chinese passenger vehicle scene, HIDs have gained prominence in domestic
brand SUVs. The LED penetration rate in complete automotive lighting is high and at par
with international level. China has seen rapid adoption of daytime running lamps (DRL) as it
is closely linked with the signature styling of vehicles. The growth for LED DRLs in China
comes at a time when domestic Chinese OEMs are striving for futuristic and compelling
designs in order to fulfil their ambition of being successful in developed regions. As a result
of this, the market penetration of DRL in China was 47% in 2016.
The penetration rate of LED projector headlamp modules in the Chinese headlamp market
is on the rise due to declining prices and improvement in their efficiency. The market
presence of LED projector headlamps has increased following increase in fitment from
exclusively available on the premium vehicles to optionally available in the mid-range
vehicles. Due to complexity involved in designing high-power LED product segments, (high
/ low beam and fog light) and regulations regarding their compliance, they are mostly
sourced from international manufacturers
