List of Tables

[199 Pages Report] The Automotive Engine Bearings Market size was estimated at USD 29.74 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 31.24 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 5.14% to reach USD 42.25 billion by 2030.

Automotive engine bearings are crucial components in vehicles, supporting the rotational movements of the crankshaft and camshaft, among other parts of an engine. These bearings help to reduce friction between moving parts, ensure proper alignment, and facilitate the engine's smooth operation. The expanding use of automotive engine bearings is driven by increasing vehicle production and sales, growing consumer awareness regarding vehicle maintenance, and advancements in materials and technology that improve the durability and performance of these bearings. However, the shift towards electric vehicles, which have fewer moving parts and thus require fewer bearings, poses a long-term challenge to the demand for traditional automotive engine bearings. Despite these challenges, the development of bearings that can withstand higher pressures and temperatures, and those made from more environmentally friendly materials, are expected to raise the demand and present new growth avenues.
