Absorbent glass mat (AGM) batteries for cars are a type of sealed lead-acid battery designed with glass mat separators to absorb and hold electrolyte solutions. They offer superior performance compared to traditional flooded lead-acid batteries, with benefits including maintenance-free operation, enhanced durability, and resistance to vibration and deep discharge.
AGM batteries for automobiles are divided into two primary categories, stationary and motive. Stationary AGM batteries utilize AGM technology to provide maintenance-free, long-term power storage for applications that do not require frequent movement. Passenger cars and electric vehicles are among the vehicle types that utilize AGM batteries, categorized by voltage ranges, less than 10 volts, 10 to 12 volts, and above 12 volts. These batteries are distributed through various channels, including OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and aftermarket sales.
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 impacting the AGM batteries for cars market by increasing the cost of imported lead plates, fiberglass separators, battery casings, and manufacturing machinery. Automotive OEMs and aftermarket suppliers in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported battery components, while Asia-Pacific exporters face pricing pressure. These tariffs are raising vehicle battery costs and aftermarket prices. However, they are also encouraging domestic battery manufacturing, recycling of lead materials, and innovation in high-performance and long-life AGM battery designs.

The agm batteries for cars market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $16.08 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to electric vehicle penetration, advanced automotive electronics, demand for longer battery life, cold cranking performance needs, smart battery management. Major trends in the forecast period include growing demand for start-stop systems, rising adoption in electric cars, preference for maintenance-free batteries, expansion of aftermarket sales, demand for vibration-resistant batteries.
The growth of electric vehicles is expected to drive the expansion of the AGM batteries for cars market in the coming years. Electric vehicles (EVs) utilize electric motors powered by battery-stored energy, offering a cleaner alternative to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. This growth is spurred by various factors, including increasing environmental concerns, government incentives promoting cleaner transportation, advancements in battery technology making EVs more practical, and a desire for energy independence. AGM batteries in EVs offer maintenance-free operation and improved safety, although they have lower energy density compared to lithium-ion batteries. In July 2023, the International Energy Agency reported that over 2.3 million electric cars were sold in the first quarter of that year, marking a 25% increase from the previous year. Sales are projected to reach 14 million by the end of 2023, representing a 35% year-on-year increase, with growth accelerating in the latter part of the year. This surge in electric vehicle adoption is a key driver of the AGM batteries for cars market growth.
Major companies in the AGM batteries for cars market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as the innovative SLI-AGM battery for automotive applications, to meet various industry demands. The advanced SLI-AGM battery plays a crucial role in automotive use by powering engine starts, lights, and accessories, and is especially suitable for stop-start systems and a variety of vehicle types. For example, in July 2024, Exide Industries Ltd, an India-based battery manufacturer, launched a new Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery tailored for starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) applications in the automotive sector.
