Since 2022, the EQE and S-Class series-production models have been offering bow door handles made using a unique combination of biomethane and pyrolysis oil sourced from scrap tires, instead of relying on conventional fossil resources. This eco-friendly approach not only reduces dependence on raw fossil materials, however, also supports the principles of circular economy and waste reduction.
In addition, door handle manufacturers aim to use materials to design door handles with less weight to improve performance of the vehicles. For instance, Huf provides automotive makers with door handles systems that weigh less than one kilogram. Such factors are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the market.
