Automotive Differential Market Size & Share Analysis - Trends, Drivers, Competitive Landscape, and Forecasts (2024 - 2030)
The automotive differential market was USD 21.7 billion in 2023, which will rise to USD 27.7 billion, advancing at a 3.6% CAGR, by 2030.
The rising need for heavy-duty and commercial automobiles across the globe is a major driver. This is because of the surging transportation, increasing delivery system, industrialization, and growing tourism. Increasing logistics activities are further boosting the industry expansion.
As per the International Energy Agency, in 2022, approximately 66 thousand electric buses & 60 thousand heavy & medium trucks were sold.
With the increasing need for heavy-duty automobiles around the world, the demand for automotive differentials is growing.
Automobile electrification is a major trend being witnessed in this industry. Vehicle electrification is the technique of substituting vehicle components, that run on electricity instead of traditional energy.
With automotive differentials being employed in cars for a long time now, it is hard to substitute them with any other technology.
Manufacturers are currently concentrating on component electrification due to the implementation of emission reduction goals and purchase and manufacturing grants for clean-energy vehicles.
Electronic limited-slip differentials are now being employed to substitute traditional differentials. Through an electronic control unit, this device offers adequate torque to each wheel. The mechanism, in case of instability, is beneficial as the extra torque is transferred to the wheels.
Market Insights
Front-wheel drive accounted for the largest share of the industry in 2023, of approximately 50%, and it will further advance at a significant rate in the years to come.
This can be because front-wheel drive is more cost-effective for both customers and manufacturers, and front-wheel drive automobiles give drivers everything they need at a lower price than their rear-wheel drive counterparts.
Passenger car was the largest contributor to the industry in 2023, with a 45% share. This is because of the rising production coupled with the requirement for passenger cars around the globe.
The heavy commercial vehicle is likely to advance at the highest compound annual growth rate in the years to come. This is because these automobiles are employed for heavy-duty applications, so they require proper traction control systems.
The open differential type accounted for the largest share of the industry in 2023, of 35%. This can be because open differentials enable wheels to turn independently of one another, which removes wheel hop and automobile instability and decreases tire wear.
APAC was the largest contributor to the industry in 2023, with approximately 55% share. This can be attributed to the fact that the region is a main center for automobile production, coupled with the existence of large production facilities in Japan and China.
Japan, India, and China remained the highest producers of passenger cars across the globe. Therefore, the overall requirement for automotive differentials is the highest in APAC, and it is likely to continue this trend throughout this decade.
The automotive differential industry has strong competition and key companies are introducing new products and increasing their existing offerings to fight with competitors.
They are also involved in partnerships, acquisitions, and mergers, to gain more share. Most players are involved in technological improvement to improve their presence in this industry.
