Market Overview:
The global automobile limited slip differential (LSD) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for SUVs and pickup trucks, rising disposable income, and technological advancements in LSDs. By type, the mechanical LSD segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global LSD market during the forecast period. However, with technological advancements in electronic LSDs, this segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR than mechanical LSDs during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
An automobile limited slip differential is a type of differential that allows torque to be transferred between the driving wheels, but limits the amount of torque that can be transferred to any one wheel. This helps to prevent one wheel from spinning faster than the other, which can cause loss of control.
Mechanical LSD:
Mechanical LSD is a friction-free, solid-state differential that can be mounted between the road wheels of two vehicles. It eliminates the need for a clutch and frees up the transmission so that power can be applied instantly when needed. The system has been around for decades in various forms; however, it has only recently gained traction in its current form due to technological advancements and innovations by prominent market players such as ZF TRW Automotive Holdings Corporation and Schaeffler AG.
Electronic LSD:
The LSD is an electronic device that helps in increasing the traction between drive wheels and tires by limiting the wheel spin. It does this by making use of a clutch that temporarily reduces engine power. The more drive wheels are spinning, the faster they will go but with limited traction, things can get out of control if one or more wheel lose contact with the road surface.
Application Insights:
The SUV and pickup truck application segment led the global automobile limited slip differential market in 2017. This can be attributed to growing demand for vehicles with high off-road capabilities. The other applications include Wagon R, Minivan & van, Caravan & RV, and Heavy Duty Vehicles (HDV). HDVs are majorly used on highways as they have a higher gear ratio than normal passenger cars that reduce the chances of getting stuck in slow moving traffic. Moreover, these types of differentials are also used in heavy commercial vehicles such as trucks where high torque is required for driving through narrow roads or when parking at tight angles. Electronic limited slip Differential (ESD) is a relatively new technology but has gained prominence due to its benefits over mechanical LSDs such as increased accuracy while changing gears and improved control of vehicle dynamics during cornering by using anti-lock braking system (ABS).
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific region accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The regional market is driven by increasing production of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles in key markets, such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Moreover, rising disposable income levels coupled with growing urbanization across emerging countries are anticipated to fuel demand for automobiles over the next eight years.
Europe was estimated at USD X million in 2017 owing to high demand from Germany which accounted for more than 25% of total sales that year. The presence of major automobile manufacturers including Volkswagen AG; BMW Group; Mercedes-Benz AG; Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V.; Ford Motor Company Europe GmbH & Co., Ltd.; Volvo Car Corporation; Renault S.A.; Aston Martin Lagonda Limited; Ferrari SPA Scaglietti S.pa.; Maserati GmBH & Cie.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for luxury and performance cars
- Growing automotive aftermarket sector
- Technological advancements in differential design and manufacturing
- Rising popularity of off-road driving and motorsports events
- Proliferation of 4x4 vehicles across global markets
