Boston, MA - September 25, 2006 - Responding to new US legislation which will require vehicle stability control system installation on all US passenger vehicles by 2012, Strategy Analytics has updated its forecast for vehicle stability systems. In this report, "Vehicle Stability Control Mandate: Opportunity for System and Sensor Vendors," Strategy Analytics details the impact of this mandate on vehicle manufacturers and parts suppliers.

Mark Fitzgerald, Senior Analyst, Automotive Electronics Practice, notes, "Although automakers currently offer stability control on approximately half of U.S. models, NHTSA feels that the safety system will save lives, and should, therefore, be installed in all vehicles. This provides a huge opportunity for stability control suppliers--such as Bosch, Continental, Delphi and TRW-- because the future of the vehicle stability control market in the US has doubled overnight."
