Rising disposable income and changing lifestyle of consumers are in-turn latent drivers of Latin America automotive HVAC market. Today these automotive HVAC systems have become requiredfeature, evenin low end passenger vehicle as well as commercial vehicle. Growing demand for automotive HVAC technology has led to application and product development such as multi-zone individual air and temperature control. Automatic and manual are the two types of HVAC systems,which are available in automotive HVAC market. Due to least level of human intervention, the automatic HVAC system are being installed in large extent, especially in premium and luxury segment passenger vehicles.
