Auto Industry Market Trends

Urbanization and Rising Infrastructure Spending in the Economy to boost market growth

Rapid population growth, urbanization, infrastructure, and industrial expansion are the primary drivers of commercial vehicle sales growth. The industrial sector is increasing, particularly in emerging nations, creating jobs in industries such as building, mining, and tourism. The availability of jobs has increased the number of commuters, resulting in a strong demand for public transportation or personal automobiles. With the rise of e-commerce, there has been a surge in need for small, medium, and large commercial trucks for logistics and transportation. The logistics industry has evolved from just providing services to providing customer-centric solutions. As a result, the need for commercial vehicles for transportation has skyrocketed. Manufacturers are developing new vehicle designs, decreasing load factors and size, and modifying cars to meet weight limits. The mining and construction sectors have benefited from urbanization. New residential developments, smart city programs, and the growing demand for flyovers and bridges contribute to a strong demand for technologically sophisticated freight vehicles.

E-commerce and digital transformation are also important in improving the transportation and logistics sector. Increased industrialization promotes infrastructural development. Consumer demand for customized transportation solutions, telematics integration, and the rising popularity of shared mobility are all significant factors impacting the growth of the commercial vehicle industry. After researching the benefits of connectivity and telematics in transforming transportation and logistics operations, several Original Equipment Manufacturers have introduced commercial vehicles with connectivity features such as accident warnings, traffic data, weather reports, and roadwork updates. This, in turn, will likely boost commercial vehicle sales throughout the projection period. A favorable regulatory environment and extra government incentives have increased demand for commercial electric cars. Governments are investing a greater proportion of their budgets in improving road infrastructure to boost their respective areas' transportation and logistics industries. The government of India budgeted USD 24.27 billion for the infrastructure sector in its 2020-2021 federal budget, mostly for highway renewable energy and transportation. As a result, growing urbanization and rising infrastructure investment will likely propel global automotive market growth.

However, urbanization and rising infrastructure spending in the economy. For instance, increasing demand for high-end passenger vehicles is another factor driving the growth of the Automotive Industry revenue.
