It also offers modern driver-assist features like automatic parking and lane-keep assistance. EPS is generally simpler and easier to maintain than hydraulic counterpart. The preference for EPS is driven by lightweight vehicle designs and a shift towards more efficient, connected, and safer driving technologies. Also, the shift towards electrification and autonomous driving is expected to drive the growth of this segment.
By Vehicle Type: According to the report, the global automotive steering system market is bifurcated into two vehicle types: Passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles. Passenger vehicles acquired majority of share in the market in 2022 and is the fastest growing segment as well, primarily due to several factors. The rising global automobile market, increased disposable income, and preference for advanced safety and comfort and the incorporation of innovative steering system technologies in passenger vehicles have been key drivers. As consumers place a growing emphasis on comfort, improved experience and cutting-edge technology in their vehicles, automakers are integrating advanced steering solutions to enhance both the consumer's experience and safety aspects of passenger cars. The shift towards electric and hybrid passenger vehicles is also influencing the demand for innovative steering technologies. Additionally, the revival of economic conditions post-pandemic has led to a surge in consumer confidence and increased purchasing power, driving the demand for new passenger vehicles.
By Sales Channel: According to the report, the global automotive steering system market is bifurcated into two sales channels: OEMs and Aftermarket. OEMs acquired majority of share in the market in 2022 and is the fastest growing segment as well since OEM increasingly prioritize safety and efficiency. OEM parts are guaranteed to fit and almost always come with a manufacturer-backed warranty. Also, these systems are installed in vehicles during the manufacturing process and are integral to the vehicle's design. Hence, the demand for OEM steering systems is intricately tied to the overall production and sales of vehicles globally. Additionally, with the ongoing trends in vehicle electrification, connectivity, and automation, the OEM segment is expected to witness sustained demand for innovative steering systems.
By Region: The report provides insight into the automotive steering system market based on the geographical operations, namely North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific automotive steering system market held the highest market share in 2022 and is expected to grow at the fastest rate as well, primarily owing to reasons such as increasing production of passenger vehicles, rising safety concerns, consumer preferences for advanced features, stringent safety regulations, high disposable income of the people and rising sales of luxury cars.
China is the Asia Pacific's strongest market for automotive steering system because of its focus on increasing vehicle production, technological advances in automotive steering system, and increasing disposable income of the people.
On the other hand, the Indian automotive steering system market is anticipated to grow the quickest in Asia Pacific. India is one of the acknowledged markets for automobiles, with domestic sales of 21.2 million units in 2022-23. In December 2022, India surpassed Germany and Japan to take over as the third-largest automobile market. This growth is significantly driven by an upswing in demand for electric vehicles, premium vehicles and the introduction of new models. Furthermore, increased customer demand for enhanced safety and improved comfort and the implementation of strict safety regulations by regulatory agencies are poised to be the major growth drivers.
Global Automotive steering system Market Dynamics:
Growth Drivers: Increasing sales and production of automotive vehicles has the potential to boost the growth of the automotive steering system market. When the automotive industry experiences growth, there is a parallel surge in the demand for automotive steering system components. This is because every vehicle requires steering systems for direction control, safety and compliance with regulations. As more vehicles are manufactured and sold, the need for steering components and steering system also rises. Further, the market is expected to increase due to rising disposable income, rising consumer's demand for enhanced driving experience, stringent government regulation, rising adoption of power steering etc.
Challenges: High-cost pressure can present challenge for the automotive steering system market. The integration of advanced technologies, such as electric power steering (EPS) and steer-by-wire systems, leads to higher production costs due to sophisticated components and engineering processes. Further, intense competition in the automotive sector adds to these pressures, forcing companies to offer competitive pricing while upholding high-quality standards. On the consumer side, electric power steering systems present a disadvantage as they require specialized equipment and knowledge for diagnosis and repair, making repairs more expensive compared to hydraulic systems. Other challenge that automotive steering system market faces is shortage of raw materials like semiconductor.
Trends: A major trend gaining pace in automotive steering system market is steer-by-wire technology. Steer-by-wire is a revolutionary automotive technology that eliminates the physical connection between the steering wheel and wheels using electrically controlled motors. This system allows for customizable interiors, adaptive driving modes, weight reduction, improved fuel efficiency, and seamless integration with advanced technologies. It revolutionizes vehicle design, enhances safety, and provides real-time diagnostics, defining the future of automotive technology. More trends in the market are believed to augment the growth of automotive steering system market during the forecasted period include electrification of vehicles, integration of EPS and ADAS, autonomous driving, technological advancements in steering systems like introduction of haptic feedback etc.
Impact Analysis of COVID-19 and Way Forward:
The COVID-19 pandemic has had negative impact on the global automotive steering system market. Pandemic disrupted manufacturing operations, supply chains, shortage of raw material, and decreased consumer demand. Lockdowns, production halts, and reduced consumer spending during the pandemic led to a temporary downturn in the automotive industry.
However, as economic activities gradually resumed and the automotive sector recovered, there has been a resurgence in demand for vehicles, including those equipped with advanced steering systems. The emphasis on safety and technological innovation, coupled with a rebound in the automotive industry, is expected to drive the recovery and growth of the global automotive steering system market post-COVID-19.
