Electric Power Steering Market Segment Analysis- Type of Components
Sensor segment is estimated to grow at a highest CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period 2021-2026. Sensor plays a critical role in the Electric Power Steering Market. Sensor is responsible for measuring two primary drivers in electric power steering industry. There are majorly three type of sensors used in such type of sensor includes torque sensor, steering wheel speed sensor and position sensor. Torque sensor is become one of the primary sensor among all the sensor used in electric power steering system.
An Electric Power Steering system is an alternative to the traditional steering system includes electro hydraulic system. This electric motor is offering power, when it is turned on, wheel is turned one way or the other, thus offering a better fuel economy. The torque sensor is worked based on the non-contact magnetic measurement principle. The torque sensor contains two independent coils of wire. These coils are responsible for the moment of the wheel of the vehicles. So going forward sensor segment is estimated to grow at a higher pace in the coming future during the forecast period.
Electric Power Steering Market Segment Analysis - By Vehicle Type
By Vehicle type Electric Power Steering segment is classified in to two different segment such as Passenger Car and Commercial Vehicle. Passenger Vehicles dominated the market with a share of 73% in 2020. The increasing adoption of passenger car across the globe is estimated to drive the market for a long term basis. In the current situation, 30% of the passenger cars are running and integrated with EPS technology worldwide, and this technology is likely to be implemented in the budget passenger car as well during the forecast period. In the coming future by next 1-2 years EPS systems are expected to be replaced by brushless DC motor. Brushless DC motor are highly efficiency, less maintenance and low electric noise generation over brushed DC motors. Passenger car segment is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.20% during the forecast period.
Electric Power Steering Market Segment Analysis- By Geography
APAC region dominated the global Electric Power Steering market with a market share of more than 34% in 2020, followed by Europe and North America region. The economy of APAC is mainly influenced by the economic dynamics of countries such as China and India, but with growing foreign direct investment for economic development of South East Asia, the current scenario is changing. Countries in South East Asia are witnessing high growth in the automotive industries According to OICA, APAC automotive sales witnessed a growth of over 6.52% during 2012-2018, with South East Asian countries having huge potential to grow. In addition to this, in January 2019 the Chinese government unveiled number of initiatives to increase the sales of the vehicles.
