Global Pressures On Vehicle Lightweighting
• 70% global auto sales require reduced emissions
• Japan, China, EU index standards to vehicle mass
• USA & Canada index standards to vehicle size (impacts lightweighting)

Next Gen Tech MattersLightweighting CFR Plastics =
Greatest Potential
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Composites have the greatest weight reduction potential if cost
and manufacturing issues can be solved.© Next Generation Technology Matters - Confidential

EPA Will Likely Finalize 2025 CAFE
• California - Big Influencer – Weighed In
• New Administration may have difficulty reversing the standard
• EPA’s decision based on lengthy technical review, reaffirming an existing regulation
• Cost to develop vehicles that comply with stricter standards are lower than EPA projected in 2012
• New Developments - EVs, HEVs, stop/start systems, variable transmissions, cylinder deactivation, turbo charging, light weight vehicles developed faster than expected

How Are We Doing?
• U.S. OEMs on track to meet 54.5 mpg by 2025
• Mfgs producing vehicles that meet the 2025 standards
• The current generation of vehicle redesigns is routinely achieving 5% weight reduction on average (some much higher)
• Several MY 2016, 2017 vehicles reduced weight by 10-15% with a single re-design including: Ford F-150,Opel Astra, GMC Acadia, Chevy Equinox and Camaro and many others
• Weight reductions achieved using a multi-material approach, updated mfg processes and computer simulations

BMW i3 – All Carbon Fiber Frame
1. Carbon fiber is 50% lighter, but 570% more expensive than steel.
2. By 2025 – 2030,
expected to reach the price of AL today.

Next Gen Tech MattersHow Will Plastics Enable Significant
Lightweighting?
• Clean sheet design to optimize vehicle lightweighting
• Change in design/mfg. mindset (plug/play)
•Composite intensive multi- material construction
• Greater industry collaboration (US Gov’t, National Labs, OEM, Tiers, Plastics Industry = YOU)
• Change in traditional manufacturing processes

Next Gen Tech MattersEnabling Vehicle Lightweighting with
Plastic Composites
• Continue RD&D Funding for plastic composites
• Eliminate OEM barriers to greater plastic & composites use
• GAPS in greater use already identified in ACC Roadmap
• Prioritize & Fund Projects to bridge these technical GAPS
• More than any ONE organization can do

Next Gen Tech MattersWhere Lobbying Adds Value:
Legislative Branch
• RD&D Funding through Congressional Appropriations and Federal Agency Research
• Ever-Evolving Process Enabling Plastics Industry Growth• Pre-Competitive Research
• Develop and ensure bill language to designate funding
• Direct an agency to engage and fund R&D projects to advance plastics, composites, and multi-material solutions
• Ensure language maintained through final federal budget appropriations
