Global Automotive Fuel Tank Market by Capacity, Material Type and Geography (2019-2024): Market Shares, Trends and Forecasts - ResearchAndMarkets.com
The "Global
Automotive Fuel Tank Market - Segmented by Capacity, Material Type, and
Geography - Market Shares, Trends, and Forecast (2019 - 2024)"
report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's
offering.
The automotive fuel tank market is expected to witness a CAGR of 7.8%
during the forecast period, to reach a market size of USD 16.55 billion
in 2023.
The 2016 Grand Cherokee features a 93 l fuel tank that has a potential
range of over 1200 km. Most consumers, in addition to higher
fuel-efficiency figures, are now demanding bigger fuel tanks in order to
increase the range.
The maximum rate of growth will be seen in the 45 l-70 l capacity tanks,
on account of upsizing of fuel tank capacities in four-wheelers. Fuel
tanks of up to 45 l capacity cover the two-wheeler market and the budget
hatchbacks, especially in the emerging markets. In the developing
nations, small hatchbacks feature small engines and fuel tanks with a
capacity below 45 l.
Volatile Raw Material Prices Hampering Market Growth
The usage of metals as raw materials always involves the risk of price
instability in the metal commodity market. Fluctuations in the global
economy, along with influx in exchange rates, make the cost of raw
materials volatile. The economic rebound and fall decide the cost of raw
material fluctuations in the global market. Market speculation usually
makes the price of magnesium volatile, which, in turn, affects the fuel
tank industry. For instance, speculators drove the prices up in 2006
through 2008.
Overall, the raw material price fluctuations pose a serious threat to
the growth of the automotive fuel tank market, as it puts pressure on
the supply side, resulting in increased production cost. Shortage of raw
material supply and increasing demand from the automobile industry would
adversely affect market sentiments.
Asia-Pacific is Dominating Automotive Fuel Tank Market Growth
The Asia-Pacific region, despite sluggish growth in the Chinese market
(the largest automobile market in the world), is expected to lead the
growth in the automotive fuel tank market. Europe is forecasted to be
one of the fastest growing markets in the above 70 l fuel tank capacity,
as all the heavy commercial vehicles feature fuel tanks above 70 l and
their sales are expected to grow significantly over the forecast period.
