Automotive Air Suspension System Market Business Opportunity between 2018 and 2022
The global automotive air suspension system market was valued at $4,963.6 million in
2015, and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.6% during 2016 - 2022.
Increasing demand for luxury and comfort, and growing demand for premium cars
and luxury buses are expected to drive the automotive air suspension market
over the forecast period. Moreover, stringent emission control norms and fuel
efficiency regulations in different countries is enforcing stringent targets to
OEMs. This in turn, has increased the demand for lightweight air suspension
system in the automotive industry. For instance, Kenworth Truck Company, a U.S.
based manufacturer of medium and heavy-duty Class 8 trucks, introduced air ride
suspension system in its vehicles to reduce the weight of suspension system by
400 pounds. ECOmove, an Australian company, developed patented ‘Qbeaks’
suspension composed entirely made of composite materials.
The increasing industrialization has enhanced
the overall purchasing power of consumers. According to the National Bureau of
Statistics of China, the annual per capita disposable income of urban
households in China increased from $2,818.6 in 2010 to $4,692.9 in 2014. The
per capita GDP of India increased from $1,432.3 in 2010 to $1,500.8 in 2012,
and is expected to reach $1,869.3 by 2018. The overall annual disposable income
in India increased from $1,366.2 billion in 2010 to $1,587.6 billion in 2013.
Owing to such increase in the overall income of consumers, the per capita
vehicle ownership has increased, especially in the developing Asia-Pacific
countries, such as India and China. This is further driving the demand for
premium cars, which in turn is supporting the growth of the automotive air suspension
system market in the region. In 2012, sale of premium cars in China reached
1.25 million vehicles and is expected to reach 3 million by 2020. China’s
premium car market is expected to grow at an annual rate of 12% through 2020
and is expected to surpass the U.S. as the largest premium car market.
Among the two technologies of automotive air suspension system, the manual air suspension held the larger share in the global automotive air suspension system market in 2015. However, the electronic air suspension systems segment is the faster growing segment. The consumption of automotive air suspension system was the largest in bus segment in 2015, compared to other vehicle types. The automotive air suspension system market is expected to witness fastest growth in passenger car segment.
