A wiring harness is a structured set of wires, terminals and connectors, which run throughout the vehicle and relay information and electric power. Technologies such as advanced infotainment system and safety and security system have augmented the instances of assembling secondary wiring harnesses in a vehicle.
Several factors aid the growth of the global automotive secondary wiring harness market, the primary being an increase in electric vehicle production to trigger the demand. In recent years, the sales of electric vehicle sales in North America have increased significantly. Thus, with many of these vehicles being assembled in U.S., federal and state incentives also play a major role in boosting EV sales, making EVs more affordable. For instance, in May 2017, the U.S. Department of Energy estimated that refueling the average EV cost the equivalent of gasoline priced at only USD 1.17 per gallon, roughly half the price of gasoline. According to IEA, China was by far the largest electric car market, accounting for more than 40% of global sales of electric cars and more than double the amount sold in U.S in 2016.
