Automotive Exhaust Sensor Market to Witness Steady Expansion by 2026

Posted by Arslan on October 7th, 2019

In terms of volume, the global automotive exhaust sensor market will record a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2017 to 2026, as projected by a recent Fact.MR report. Nearly US$ 2,000 Mn worth of automotive exhaust sensors are estimated to be sold globally by 2026-end. Automotive exhaust sensors are expected to exhibit the largest sales in North America, trailed by Europe and Asia-Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ). However, sales of automotive exhaust sensors in Europe will increase at a relatively higher CAGR than that in APEJ and North America through 2026. Gasoline will remain the dominant engine type segment in the global automotive exhaust sensor market, with sales forecast to reach approximately 98,000,000 units by 2026-end. However, automotive exhaust sensor sales for use in gasoline engines are likely to reflect a comparatively slower rise than that for use in diesel engine through 2026. Diesel engines will account for roughly 40% market share by 2026-end.

Miniaturization of integrated circuits is likely to provide an impetus to the development of automotive exhaust sensors in the near future. Adoption of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) sensors, a miniaturized form of conventional ICs manufactured by using microfabrication technology, is witnessing a tremendous surge. Use of microfabrication technology enables automotive exhaust sensors in being more accurate and reliable, meanwhile enhancing their response time, efficiency, communication capabilities, and robustness. In addition, a large number of automotive exhaust sensor manufacturers are making enormous investments in research & development activities for coming up with better microfabrication technologies, which in turn will help them in boosting their revenue generation.

The global market for automotive exhaust sensor will exhibit a steady 4.0% CAGR, in terms of value, between the forecast period 2017 and 2026, as slated by a new Fact.MR report. Over 160,000,000 units of automotive exhaust sensors are expected to be sold worldwide by 2026-end.

The market for automotive exhaust sensor in Europe and North America has reached a maturity stage, and is currently stable on the back of a slack in production and rising competition from developing economies in Asia-Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ) and Latin America. However, with implementation of the Euro VI norms in 2017, demand for exhaust sensors is expected to witness a gradual rise in Europe in the near future. Europe will remain the largest market for automotive exhaust sensor, in terms of value.

In terms of value, passenger cars among vehicles type segments will account for the lion’s share of the global automotive exhaust sensor market. Dominance of passenger cars in the market can be primarily attributed to the advent of stringent emission norms, which demand installation of automotive exhaust sensors in passenger cars for controlling air pollutants, thereby boosting sales of the emission-efficient passenger cars significantly. In addition, sales of automotive exhaust sensors in passenger cars and heavy commercial vehicles are projected to register an equal and the highest CAGR, in terms of value, through 2026, closely trailed by light commercial vehicles.

Automotive exhaust sensors will witness the highest demand for use in gasoline engines. However, growing penetration of diesel engines in developed nations has resulted into rapid adoption of automotive exhaust sensors for use in these engines recently. Automotive exhaust sensors are projected to register the fastest expansion for use in diesel engines through 2026, in terms of value. Although OEM remains the dominant sales channel for automotive exhaust sensors in terms of revenues, sales in aftermarket are poised to exhibit a relatively faster expansion through 2026.

Miniaturization of integrated circuits has been providing a boost to the development of the automotive exhaust sensors since the recent past. Demand for microelectromechanical system (MEMS) sensors, miniaturized form of the conventional ICs that are manufactured with the aid of microfabrication technology, has been witnessing a substantial surge. Adoption of microfabrication technology enhances the accuracy and reliability of automotive exhaust sensors, meanwhile improving their efficiency, communication capabilities, response time, and robustness. Additionally, a large number of automotive exhaust sensor manufacturers are making enormous investments in research & development activities for coming up with better microfabrication technologies, which in turn will help them in boosting their revenue generation.
