The lockdown conditions implemented in various nations has resulted in temporary closure of manufacturing units, supply chain and sales channels. This resulted in declined revenue in the automotive sector, along with its associated industries like wheel aftermarket. However, after the relaxation of lockdown conditions, the sales of vehicles have increased in nations like India, offering lucrative opportunities for players in the automotive wheel aftermarket business.
Drivers and Restraints of Automotive Wheel:
Drivers:
Driving factors within the automotive wheel aftermarket business are rising miniaturization within the products. Significantly growing interest in automotive industry, the increasing pollution levels and the rising road congestion are inspiring numerous countries to heavily invest publicly transport systems. Large untouched market in developing and underdeveloped countries and technological developments in tire manufacturing are opportunities within the market.
Restraints:
Moreover, volatility in staple prices hinders the market growth. Additionally, lack of standardization within the manufacturing processes of automotive wheel is predicted to limit the expansion of this market in future.
By Material Type:
Growing adaption of carbon fiber within the automotive industry and surge in investment on wheel layout for better aerodynamics offer profitable opportunities for the global automotive wheel aftermarket market.
Aluminum automotive wheel aftermarket segment valued for the utmost share in 2017. This share is primarily attributed to the advantages offered by the fabric including lower weight, superior heat conductivity and enhanced anti-corrosion properties. Adoptions in regulatory policies to market fuel-efficient vehicles are encouraging automobile OEMs to take a position in R&D and announced light weight wheels, positively affecting the market share till 2024.
Steel wheels witnessed a requirement of over 150 thousand units in 2017. Lower costs of the car wheels alongside easier availability across a good network of dealerships across the world are expanding the industry share over the projected timeframe.
By Vehicle Type:
Passenger vehicles are facing a high interest for alloy wheels, as they're corrosion resistant, offers top good finish, and possess high esthetic appeal. Increase in production of passenger vehicles is predicted to spice up the automotive wheel aftermarket business.
LCVs valued for a revenue share of around 20% in 2017. Arrival of hub & spoke model in emerging economies are providing profitable opportunity for the sales of products carriage and transportation vehicles. However, the need to sustain effect of the potholes and unevenness will approve the deployment of strong and robust automotive wheels within the LCV segment.
By End User:
Original equipment manufacturers within the developing regions like China, India, and Japan accept the changes in regional and segment patterns of supply and demand, with reference to their production and provide base footprints, supply chains, and merchandise portfolio. Factors like increase in urbanization alongside rise in population drive the demand for vehicles among consumers. Growing average vehicle age and proliferation of online B2C automotive parts and accessories sales are among the major factors increasing the aftermarket growth.
Automotive Wheel aftermarket Region wise analysis:
