The escalating preference for Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) is a key driving force behind the growth of the motor vehicle seat and interior trim market. The allure of SUVs primarily rests on their comfortable seating and exquisite interior trim, spurring a heightened demand for improved and visually appealing vehicle seating and interior elements. Notably, utility vehicle sales in India surpassed a milestone of a million units (10 lakh units) for the first time from April 2020 to March 2021. Highlighting this trend, Hyundai reported a substantial surge in sales of its unique SUV, Creta, delivering over 12,284 units in November 2021-an impressive 78% increase from the 6,900 sales figure in 2020. The global rise in SUV demand significantly contributes to the growth of the market for vehicle seating and interior trim.
Anticipated growth in shared mobility stands as a driving force propelling the motor vehicle seating and interior trim market. Shared mobility involves transportation services shared among users, typically facilitated by technological platforms. Enhanced vehicle seating and interior trim play a crucial role in shared mobility, elevating passenger comfort and aesthetics to accommodate frequent user turnover and varied clientele preferences. According to Jugnoo, a U.S.-based technology-driven on-demand ride-sharing platform, the global shared mobility market was valued at around USD 166.3 billion in 2021 and is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.9% from 2022 to 2030. Hence, the expansion of shared mobility significantly drives the market for motor vehicle seating and interior trim.
The failure to meet the required quality standards of motor vehicle seating and interior trim parts stands as a significant impediment to market growth. Instances where car seats or interior trim components fail to meet the minimum safety requirements or pose safety risks often lead to recalls by manufacturers or regulatory bodies such as the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). These recalls not only pose safety risks but also result in substantial financial losses for manufacturers. A notable example is Toyota's 2022 recall of about 75,316 Tacoma crew cab pickup trucks due to concerns regarding improperly welded upper child-seat anchors. The risk of failing to meet quality standards negatively impacts the growth trajectory of the motor vehicle seating and interior trim market.
Companies within the motor vehicle seating and interior trim market are making substantial investments in utilizing sustainable materials for car interior trim, targeting buyers inclined toward eco-friendly living practices.

The Evoque features a premium textile produced from eucalyptus fibers, known as eucalyptus melange, which consumes less water in its manufacturing process. Additionally, it incorporates a premium textile from Kvadrat, crafted from 53 recycled plastic bottles per car, coupled with Dinamica Miko suede cloth. This strategic shift toward sustainable materials in car interiors represents a major trend among companies operating in this market.
