Current applications and prospects for utilization of steel sheets at JCS AVTOVAZ

International Symposium on Niobium Microalloyed Sheet Steel for Automotive Application

2006
Tikhonov, A K
To summarize the above, AVTOVAZ has to be prepared for such changes in the market. While steel remains the main material for vehicle body manufacturing, energy costs per one ton of aluminum produced are still around 5 times as higher on a per ton basis compared to steel. (AU)
