Nowadays, in automotive industry, it has become an inevitable trend for plastics to replace expensive metal materials. High-strength engineering plastics not only reduce cost of parts processing, assembly and maintenance, but also make cars lighter, energy-saving and environmentally friendly. According to data, plastics and their composites are the most important automotive lightweight materials. It can not only reduce quality of parts by about 40%, but also reduce procurement cost by about 40%. Therefore, its usage in automobiles has also risen rapidly in recent years, becoming "new darling" of automobile manufacturing.

Main function of engineering plastics used in automobiles is to lighten weight of automobiles, so as to achieve purpose of fuel saving and high speed. Developed countries regard amount of plastic used in automobiles as an important indicator to measure level of automobile design and manufacturing. Germany has the largest single consumption of automobile plastics in the world, and amount of plastics accounts for 15% of the overall material.
