Auto Expo 2008 introduced a series of new pavilions, one of which is Accessories Pavilion. The new pavilion received tremendous response from B2B as well the masses looking out for enhancing the look of their car, bringing technology, flaunting navigation etc. The pavilion witnessed the amazement of the visitors with diversity of products which it had to offer with its surprising rates. The pavilion showcased audio video systems with the latest technology and sound systems, navigation, car fresheners, mobile holders, dashboards, seat covers, car screens, window films, electronic locking systems, immobilizer, lighting accessories, safety & security systems, car stickers, upholstery etc.

With the comfortable vehicle buy outs and availability of car loans ;the customers are left with a sizeable pocket for accessorizing their car; which otherwise would have been consumed in purchase. It is estimated that people generally spend 3-4 percent of the car value on accessories. Though accessories such as music systems, central locking, leather upholstery, paint protection systems, mobile chargers and alloy wheels have become the order of the day, GPS navigation systems, multimedia systems and car PCs are gaining popularity, which would further drive the growth of the car accessories' market.

With the slew of new passenger car models being launched globally and India being one of the major hub for manufacturing of small cars, the Indian car accessories market is all set to witness an exponential growth . Leading players in the car accessories segment are optimistic in achieving a 20-25 percent growth keeping into account the surge in demand for sophisticated accessories by car owners.
