Brazil has recorded the highest number of COVID-19 cases in SAM, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina, among others. The governments of SAM countries have taken an array of actions to protect their citizens and contain the virus spread. The region is expected to experience lower export revenues, both from the drop in commodity prices and reduction in export volumes, especially to China, Europe, and the US, which are important trade partners of many of the SAM countries. The containment measures have adversely impacted the manufacturing sector, including automotive manufacturing industry. Major automotive manufacturers have also temporarily closed their production processes as a part of the cost-control measures. Thus, the abovementioned factors have resulted in the low demand for automotive lead acid batteries in SAM, thus affecting the market performance.

Clarios; East Penn Manufacturing Company; EnerSys; Exide Industries Limited; Johnson Controls, Inc.; and Panasonic Corporation are among the leading companies in the SAM automotive lead acid battery market. The companies are focused on adopting organic growth strategies such as product launches and expansions to sustain their position in the dynamic market. For instance, Panasonic Corporation had launched a range of valve-regulated 12V lead-acid batteries. This replaced its LC-R range of 26 models. The VRLA batteries called the “New-R” series, are suitable for applications such as emergency lights, medical equipment, wind turbines, and electric wheelchairs.
