  Automotive Composites Alliance
  With hybrid vehicle sales forecast to exceed one million annually by 2012, the Automotive Composites Alliance conducted a benchmarking study of a prototype hybrid sedan to measure how composites can play a major role in hybrid development programs. Seven applications were targeted including hoods, fenders, deck lids, battery modules, floor pans, trunk compartments and front and rear bumper beam supports. The results generally show that composites can provide significant savings in mass and tooling investment, as well as advantages in parts consolidation, corrosion resistance, opportunities for model differentiation and improvements in noise, vibration and harshness (NVH).
