The paper touches the overall advantages and obstacles for light component magnesium application. Future potential for cast, extruded and sheet metal magnesium components have been shown. Development issues and testing of a magnesium die cast instrument panel cross-car beam introduced into a medium class car with high production volume will be discussed in particular. Introductory pre-selection for the designing of a magnesium engine block has been included.
