Applications of high strength steels in automotive parts and components are already implemented. Nevertheless, new advanced high strength steels continue to be investigated and developed. An understanding about these steels as well as the implementation has become more and more important. In order to fulfill the CO2 commitment and meet high customer satisfaction, the car manufacturers have to reduce weight and cost while simultaneously improving crash performance and quality. To use these materials, there are many challenges to overcome, e.g, springback compensation and adaptation of simulation tools. Optimized product development and a flawless production process beginning with forming followed by joining and painting are and will be a challenge. Using advanced high strength steels leads to improved products by the improvement of comfort, design, fuel consumption, safety and driving quality. These improvements may be achieved with at no cost increase or just slightly increased costs. To solve the challenges in terms of joining and springback, which are related to the material properties, different solutions are possible. The best solution depends on the demands, functions and requirements of the parts. Compared to alternative materials like aluminum, steel is still an attractive material for many applications. To keep steel attractive and use the advantages, there is still a lot of work to be done. The model T of the year 1915 had 77% Fe-based alloys. Nearly 90 years later the content of Fe-based materials is only moderately decreased to 66% for a mass production model. The right combination of all material grades and the optimized application will lead to the overall goal of an outstanding and exciting product.
