Dublin, March 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Aluminum Alloy Wheels Market Size, Market Share, Application Analysis, Regional Outlook, Growth Trends, Key Players, Competitive Strategies and Forecasts, 2023 To 2031" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global Aluminum Alloy Wheels Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2031.
Due to their great durability and small weight, alloy wheels are utilized extensively. Moreover, aluminum alloy wheels enhance the vehicle's aesthetic appeal. Due to the fact that the amount of carbon dioxide emitted is proportional to the amount of fuel consumption and the size of the vehicle, automakers are compelled to produce lighter, more environmentally friendly, and safer vehicles.
Altering consumer lifestyles and a growing preference for light vehicles are anticipated to create new growth prospects for the market. Rapid urbanization, an increase in vehicle demand and production, and laws pertaining to fuel efficiency are anticipated to continue to drive the growth of the Aluminum Alloy Wheels Market over the forecast period.
The High Demand for Lightweight Vehicles Will Stimulate Market Expansion
In response to consumer demand, automakers have shifted their focus to safe, luxury, and lightweight solutions. Among the greatest prospects in the car business, lightweight materials and high-quality interiors are crucial variables. This necessitates that supplier offer solutions that assist OEMs comply with ever-tightening standards and fulfilling a growing variety of consumer preferences. The U.S. Department of Energy reports that a 10% reduction in vehicle weight can result in a 6%-8% gain in fuel efficiency.
By replacing cast iron and steel components with lightweight alloys such as magnesium alloys, aluminum alloys, high-strength steel, and carbon fiber, the body weight of a vehicle can be reduced by 50 percent. This reduces the vehicle's fuel usage directly. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a quarter of the U.S. fleet employing lightweight components and high-efficiency engines may save more than 5 billion gallons of fuel annually by 2030. Consequently, the rising demand for lightweight vehicles and the accelerating rate of vehicle manufacturing is anticipated to create a positive trend for this market over the forecast period.
Increasing Need for Durable, Aesthetically Pleasing, And Economically Viable Wheels
Increasing demand for lightweight materials from the automobile sector and a growing emphasis on fuel efficiency have dramatically raised the global demand for fuel-efficient vehicles. Aluminum alloys are distinguished from their steel equivalents by their resistance to corrosion and rust. In addition to being lightweight, it also has a longer lifespan, which is financially advantageous to the customers. In addition, as their purchasing power and urbanization expand, clients' car-buying preferences are evolving towards luxury. This is anticipated to stimulate the expansion of this market over the forecast period.
Accelerating Vehicle Production Will Fuel Market Expansion
Automakers have been compelled to adopt new technology due to the escalating competitiveness in the manufacturing sector during the past decade. As car sales climbed, so did the need for these kinds of wheels. A rise in the sales and manufacturing of all sorts of cars in developing and developed nations as a result of rising mobility and investment in the transportation sector is anticipated to contribute to the expansion of the global market's revenue.
Due To Its Low Price, The Polished Alloy Wheel Segment Dominates the Market
The polished alloy wheel segment represents a significant portion of the global market. The wheels of polished metal are polished and not plated. The polishing procedure entails sanding the alloy wheel's surface until it is entirely smooth. The surface is then polished using a polishing chemical to achieve a beautiful sheen. Since polishing does not add weight to the wheel, polished lightweight racing wheels are more prevalent than chromed or toned lightweight wheels.
When the finish of polished wheels becomes dull and tarnished, they may be repolished, which is another advantage. The automobile and trucking industries have increased demand for polished wheels because they are inexpensive, automatically polished, and buffed to a mirror sheen. In March of 2021, for instance, Dymag, the pioneer of alloy wheel production, delivered the SSC Tuatara with its polished 20-inch wheels. The aluminum alloy and carbon fiber hybrid produced by Dymag weigh 40% less than standard alloys.
The Segment for Passenger Cars Will Hold the Largest Market Share
The passenger car category is likely to maintain its dominant position in the aluminum alloy wheels market throughout the forecast period. Passenger cars include SUVs, hatchbacks, sedans, and electric vehicles (battery electric vehicles (BEV), multi-utility vehicles (MUV), and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV)). The passenger car sector enjoys a high market share and is expected to maintain its dominance during the projection period.
APAC Remains as the Global Leader
In 2022, the Asia-Pacific dominated the global automotive alloy wheels market. Currently, it has the greatest market share in the industry. The huge population of nations such as China and India, which account for more than 38% of the world's population, is a crucial element driving the development of this region. This expansion is a result of increasing urbanization and rising disposable income, which has led to a shift in individual tastes. The automotive industries in South Korea, India, and China are expanding mostly due to rising car production. In 2019, India produced 4.51 million autos, of which 3.62 million were cars, according to the OICA. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, China was the largest vehicle-producing nation in 2019; it produced 25.72 million vehicles, of which 21.36 million were automobiles. The expansion of the market is primarily driven by the presence of a thriving automotive industry and an increasing number of passenger vehicle manufacturers.
Due to the highest population proportion in the world and the presence of two densely populated nations, China and India, the demand for automobiles in the region will be the highest in the world throughout the projected period, with nearly 60% of the world's vehicles located there. Likewise, the income level of the residents in this region is increasing at a quick rate. The region has a substantial proportion of middle-income residents and is concerned with automobile fuel economy. With a decrease in the vehicle's total mass, the fuel economy is anticipated to improve. During the forecast period, the wheels market is anticipated to increase with the demand for automobiles.
