Global Automotive Axle Market, by Type (front axle, rear axle), By Material (alloy, and carbon fiber), By Propeller Shaft Type (single, and multi piece) - Forecast 2022
Automotive Axle Market Overview
The growth of the automotive industry is anticipated to influence a significant increase in the demand for automotive axles directly. An automotive axle is an integral part of any wheeled vehicle as it helps in better steering experience and control. The axle serves different functions of steering and transmission depending upon its position and application. Rising acceptance of hybrid and electric vehicles and integration of advanced and smart gearing technology are contributing substantially to the global automotive axle market growth. Furthermore, intensifying focus on improving power and drivetrain systems surrounding systems like clutch, transmission, propeller shaft, and the rear axle are driving prominent growth to the market. The latest report published by Market Research Future (MRFR) suggests the proliferation of growth in the global automotive axle market during the forecast period of 2018-2023. However, increasing cost of components and additional vehicular weight are likely to refrain the market from growing at a faster pace.
