Reduces fuel economy by 1%, while bike racks and a bicycle can decrease it by up to 9%. Roof-mounted racks have the most significant impact on fuel efficiency due to increased aerodynamic drag. Manufacturers respond by producing lighter bike car racks to mitigate this negative impact on market growth.
• The bike car rack market faces several challenges. The primary issue is the increasing demand for larger vehicle sizes, limiting the space for bike racks. Another challenge is the need for versatility and compatibility with various bike types and vehicle models. Additionally, safety concerns and the requirement for easy installation and removal add to the complexity. Furthermore, the market is competitive, with numerous players offering different solutions. Lastly, the cost of high-quality, durable racks can be a barrier for some consumers.
