The automotive steering system market size is projected to reach US$ 35754.37 million by 2031 from US$ 25530.23 million in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 4.3% in 2023–2031. Several governments across the world have enacted strict automotive emission and fuel economy legislations. Fleet-level regulations have been enforced by regulatory bodies such as the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration in the US and the International Council on Clean Transportation in Europe. Automobile manufacturers must adhere to the average pollution cap decided by these regulations. These regulations have pushed automakers to spend more in fuel-efficient steering systems such as electronic power steering. As opposed to conventional hydraulic steering systems, electrically assisted power steering systems are lighter in weight and have a simpler structure.

Automotive Steering System Market Analysis

According to the US Department of Energy, in ideal conditions, EPS (Electronic Power Steering) systems can improve fuel efficiency by 2% to 4%, reduce fuel consumption by up to 6%, and reduce CO2 emissions by 8 grams per kilometer. As per the estimates by Nexteer Automotive Corporation, EPS systems have saved nearly 3 billion gallons of gas since 1999. Unlike hydraulic systems, which pump fluid continuously when the engine is running, these systems only use power when the wheels are turned. The European region has the highest penetration of electrically assisted power steering, followed by North America and Asia Pacific. Thus, the various stringent government norms for ensuring fuel efficient vehicles on road are expected to influence the demand for EPS, thereby contributing to the market growth over the forecast period.

Automotive Steering System Market Overview

The integration of the Internet of Things in cars is the next substantial digital development in the automotive industry. The advent of autonomous vehicles will bring another revolution in the automotive industry. Electronic Power Steering (EPS) system integrated autonomous vehicles will further bolster the driving experience of the user. The development of connected cars provides promising opportunities for both tech companies and the automotive industry. The development of connected vehicles would promote the use of EPS in the vehicles, thereby contributing to the growth of the global automotive steering system market over the forecast period.

Automotive Steering System Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rise in Demand for Electrification in Vehicles

There is an increase in use of buses and trucks worldwide, especially for logistics and public transportation. In Asia, Oceania, and Europe, public transportation is preferred over private transportation, while in North America, private cars are the primary mode of transportation. As the population in urban areas is growing, there is a need for increased public transit, and the current transportation infrastructure is proving inadequate. OEMs worldwide are now focused on lowering global carbon emissions, which is leading to increase in use of electric cars. Passenger cars and taxis are concentrating more on the introduction of greener technology as the demand increases. The manufacturers are concentrating their efforts on electrification of vehicles, especially passenger cars. Several countries worldwide are putting a lot of work into creating green transportation. For example, in May 2019, China's Ministry of Transport and other ministries jointly released the Green Travel Action Plan for 2019–2022, which encourages the use of green vehicles. In addition, the country will continue to improve public transportation and information systems that promote green transportation.

Governments around the world are taking several steps to minimize CO2 emissions. They are providing tax cuts and incentives to promote the use of electric vehicles in public transportation, such as e-trucks and e-buses. BYD K9, Mercedes Benz electric truck, and Tata Starbus Hybrid e-buses are a few examples of electric vehicle models. Some commercial vehicle manufacturers have recently unveiled electric buses, and others have announced plans to convert full-size trucks and pickup trucks to battery-electric platforms. Thus, the rising demand for electric vehicles is contributing to the growth of the global automotive steering system market.

Integration of Technologically Advanced EPS Systems in Commercial Vehicles

EPS is mainly used in passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, with a small presence in heavy vehicles. With technological advances, EPS systems can carry more weight, and they can be used in commercial vehicles. Due to their higher load-bearing capability than EPS systems, HPS (Hydraulic Power Steering) systems currently dominate the commercial vehicle market. HPS systems use the engine's control, reducing fuel efficiency.

The EPS system is more fuel-efficient and reliable than HPS systems because it draws power from the tank. Increased load-bearing ability will allow this technology to be used in commercial vehicles as well. For instance, Volvo has developed Volvo Dynamic Steering, which uses an electric motor. The steering is regulated 2,000 times per second by the engine. The Torque Overlay platform was used to build this technology. For the pickup truck industry, Nexteer Automotive has designed a rack-assisted electronic power steering system. The Servotwin electro-hydraulic steering system for heavy commercial vehicles was introduced by Robert Bosch, another leading steering system maker. Similarly, in October 2020, Nexteer Automotive Corporation launched EPS systems for commercial vehicles. In the coming years, such advances are expected to generate lucrative opportunities for EPS systems in the commercial vehicle market.
