Automotive Glass Market by Glass Type (Laminated Glass, Tempered Glass), Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, Light Commercial Vehicles, Electric Vehicles), Sales Channel, Application (Sidelight, Windshield, Sunroof), and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031.

The research report titled 'Automotive Glass Market by Glass Type (Laminated Glass, Tempered Glass), Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, Light Commercial Vehicles, Electric Vehicles), Sales Channel, Application (Sidelight, Windshield, Sunroof), and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031', provides an in-depth analysis of the automotive glass market in five major geographies and emphasizes on the current market trends, market sizes, market shares, recent developments, and forecasts till 2031.

The automotive glass market is projected to reach $28.3 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2024 to 2031.

The growth of the automotive glass market is driven by the growing demand for electric and hybrid vehicles, increasing vehicle sales, and increasing application of sunroofs in passenger cars. However, high initial and set-up costs of automotive glass plants and fluctuations in raw material prices restrain the growth of this market.

Furthermore, the increasing use of smart glass in the automotive industry is expected to generate growth opportunities for the stakeholders in this market. However, safety concerns regarding laminated glass are a major challenge impacting the growth of the automotive glass market.

The automotive glass market is segmented by glass type (laminated glass, tempered glass, other glass type), vehicle type (passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, electric vehicles, other vehicle type), sales channel (OEMs and aftermarket), and application (sidelight, windshield, sunroof, rear window, taillight, and other applications). The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the market at the regional and country levels.

Based on glass type, the automotive glass market is segmented into laminated glass, tempered glass, and other glass type. In 2024, the laminated glass segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 65% of the automotive glass market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing consumer preferences for safety standards and increasing use of laminated glass in windshields and side windows of vehicles. Moreover, the segment is also projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on vehicle type, the automotive glass market is segmented into passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, electric vehicles, and other vehicle type. In 2024, the passenger cars segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 60% of the automotive glass market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing sales of passenger cars due to the increasing disposable income of consumers and changing consumer trends.

However, the electric vehicle segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's growth is attributed to supportive government policies and regulations, increasing investments in EV development by leading automotive OEMs, rising environmental concerns, and increasing consumer demand for electric vehicles.

Based on sales channel, the automotive glass market is segmented into OEMs and aftermarket. In 2024, the OEMs segment is expected to account for the larger share of above 75% of the automotive glass market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing demand for safety and quality in automotive glass, growing adoption of advanced technologies in vehicles, and increasing consumer preference for OEM glass as it offers a warranty, providing consumers with added assurance and protection. Moreover, the segment is also projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on application, the automotive glass market is segmented into sidelight, windshield, sunroof, rear window, taillight, and other applications. In 2024, the windshield segment is expected to account for the largest share of the automotive glass market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing demand for safety and advanced features such as sound insulation and UV protection in vehicles and technological advancements for enhancing appearance and features in vehicles.

However, the sunroof segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's growth is attributed to the increasing application of sunroofs in passenger cars, technological advancements in the automotive industry, and changing consumer preferences to enhance the driving experience.

Based on geography, the automotive glass market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, Asia-Pacific is expected to account for the largest share of above 45% of the automotive glass market. Factors such as increasing vehicle production in the region, increasing demand for electric vehicles in Asia-Pacific, increasing consumer preferences for SUVs in China and India, and increasing government's focus on vehicle safety are expected to drive the growth of the automotive glass market in this region. Moreover, this region is projected to register the highest CAGR of above 11% during the forecast period.
