Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dcfrm9/automotive) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the International Automotive Transmission Market - Global Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.

A transmission system helps power to propagate from power source (engine) to drive mechanism. These systems utilize clutch and gears to provide speed and torque conversions from crank shaft to wheels. Transmission systems have been constantly evolving from manual to automatic or from 5 speed gears to even 8 speed gears. Varying needs of the users such as improved fuel economy, increasing vehicle performance requirements, greater power requirements, and enhanced driving experience have led to tremendous changes and developments in automotive transmission systems.

Amid certain technical limitations of CVT and high cost constraints of DCT, these transmission systems find very less installation rate in commercial vehicles all over the globe. The developing markets such as India and Brazil, automobile manufacturers are yet to explore use of these technologies at greater levels. Major automakers such as Volkswagen (Germany) and Honda (Japan) manufacture these transmission systems in-house or with collaboration/partnership with Tier-I technology or component providers, thereby leaving low market space for independent transmission system manufacturers.
