By product, micro hybrid batteries segment accounted for the second-largest share in automotive lead acid batteries market in 2022
The micro hybrid batteries segment held the second-largest share in 2022. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the requirement of start-stop systems in the automotive sector due to the rising need for improved fuel efficiency and emissions regulations.
By automatically shutting off the engine during idle periods, micro hybrid vehicles consume less fuel and emit fewer pollutants. Thus, adoption of start-stop technology is driving the demand for micro hybrid batteries in automotive lead acid batteries market.
By type, the VRLA batteries segment accounted for the largest share in automotive lead acid batteries market in 2022
The VRLA batteries segment held the largest share in 2022. VRLA batteries are utilized in auxiliary power units, which are secondary power sources in vehicles. APUs are often used in heavy-duty trucks, recreational vehicles (RVs), and commercial vehicles to power various electrical systems, such as air conditioning, heating, and onboard electronics, when the main engine is turned off.
VRLA batteries are known for their durability and reliability, making them suitable for the demanding operating conditions of automotive. These factors further propel the demand for automotive lead acid batteries market.
By end-use, the light & heavy commercial vehicles segment accounted for the second-largest share in automotive lead acid batteries in 2022
Lead-acid batteries play a crucial role in light & heavy commercial vehicles by providing the necessary power for starting the large diesel engines commonly found in trucks, buses, and other heavy-duty vehicles. They are also responsible for powering the electrical systems in light & heavy commercial vehicles, including lighting, signaling, and auxiliary equipment. Thus, lead acid batteries have been widely used in commercial vehicles.
The automotive lead acid batteries market in North America accounted for the second-largest share in 2022
Start-stop systems, which automatically shut off and restart the engine to save fuel and reduce emissions, have become more prevalent in North America. Lead-acid batteries have been the primary choice for these systems due to their affordability and ability to handle the high current demands of frequent engine starts. The growth of start-stop systems has positively influenced the automotive lead-acid batteries market.
