SHANGHAI, Nov.10 (SMM)-SMM draws conclusion from recent communication with aluminium products processing plants related to lightweight autos, aluminium used for autos may surge in 2020. Since current new-energy cars have high demand on weight reduction, considering there is little space for battery side for weight reduction, except high-strength steel, compared with magnesium alloy and high-end carbon fiber material, aluminium is of low cost and alloy advantage. But considering new fuel autos or new-energy autos will go into mass production 2~3 years later, we estimate in 2020 aluminium for autos will surge.
