Gravity die casting automotive parts are components manufactured by pouring molten metal into a permanent mold, allowing gravity to fill the cavity. This process ensures high dimensional accuracy, smooth surface finishes, and consistent mechanical properties. It is commonly used to produce durable and complex-shaped metal parts in the automotive industry, providing excellent strength, precision, and resistance to wear and heat.
The main types of gravity die casting automotive parts include transmission parts, engine parts, and brake parts. Transmission parts are precision components that transfer engine power to the wheels, facilitating smooth shifting, torque control, and overall vehicle movement. They are made from materials such as aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, magnesium alloys, copper alloys, and other non-ferrous alloys using manufacturing methods such as high-pressure die casting, low-pressure die casting, gravity die casting, permanent mold casting, and sand casting. These parts are applied in passenger cars and commercial vehicles, with end-users including original equipment manufacturers OEMs, aftermarket suppliers, and automotive component manufacturers.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are affecting the gravity die casting automotive parts market by raising costs of imported aluminum and magnesium alloys, casting molds, thermal control systems, and precision machining equipment. Automotive manufacturing regions such as North America and Europe are particularly impacted due to reliance on imported raw materials and tooling, while Asia-Pacific exporters face margin pressure. These tariffs have increased production costs and influenced sourcing strategies across OEMs and tier suppliers. However, they are also accelerating domestic alloy production, localized tooling development, and investments in regional casting facilities, supporting supply chain localization.

The gravity die casting automotive parts market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.02 billion in 2025 to $3.22 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in automotive production volumes, rising adoption of die casting for engine and transmission parts, availability of durable non-ferrous alloys, expansion of OEM supplier networks, increasing investments in casting infrastructure.
The gravity die casting automotive parts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.09 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing penetration of electric vehicles, rising demand for lightweight vehicle structures, expansion of advanced casting automation, growing focus on fuel efficiency regulations, increasing adoption of sustainable metal processing. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of lightweight cast automotive components, rising demand for high-precision permanent mold casting, growing adoption of aluminum and magnesium alloys, expansion of automated casting lines, enhanced focus on dimensional accuracy.
The growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to drive the expansion of the gravity die casting automotive parts market. Electric vehicles, which are powered fully or partially by electricity stored in rechargeable battery packs instead of conventional internal combustion engines, are gaining traction due to increasing environmental awareness and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As consumers and industries shift toward cleaner transportation options, the demand for EVs continues to rise. Gravity die casting automotive parts are critical in supporting EVs by providing lightweight yet high-strength aluminum components for essential systems, such as battery housings that protect lithium-ion battery packs while reducing vehicle weight by 10-30%, electric motor casings that ensure optimal heat dissipation and electromagnetic shielding, and structural chassis elements that enhance vehicle integrity and range through weight reduction. For example, in February 2024, the U.S. Department of Energy reported significant year-over-year growth in monthly EV sales, with peak sales surpassing 100,000 vehicles in 2023. This growing demand for EVs is propelling the gravity die casting automotive parts market forward.
The increasing demand for industrial automation is expected to drive the growth of the gravity die casting automotive parts market going forward. Industrial automation involves using technology, machinery, or systems to perform industrial tasks with minimal human intervention, enhancing efficiency and accuracy. This demand is rising as companies seek to improve productivity, reduce human errors, and lower operational costs while maintaining consistent, high-quality output. Gravity die casting automotive parts support industrial automation by supplying precise, durable metal components that ensure the reliable performance of automated systems and machinery. For example, in September 2024, the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) reported that industrial robot installations in the UK increased by 51% to 3,830 units, while installations in the Americas exceeded 50,000 units for the third consecutive year, totaling 55,389 in 2023. Therefore, the growing demand for automation is driving the growth of the gravity die casting automotive parts market.
