The global automotive air filters market size was valued at USD 5.08 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 5.49 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 1.1% during the forecast period. It is expected to experience a steep decline due to the COVID-19 pandemic till 2022. The market growth, which will be sluggish in 2021 and the first half of 2022, is expected to show signs of recovery in the second half of 2022 due to the resumption of regular production and sales.


Air is essential for the combustion of any engine because the oxygen existing in the air helps to burn the fuel. The amount of oxygen required for the complete combustion is appropriate, which is effective and results in efficiency, effluents, and engine life too. For instance, to burn 1 liter of fuel of the average heavy-duty truck engine, 13000 to 19500 liters of air are required. The wear of the air filter of an internal combustion engine is affected seriously by passing through the dust particles from the atmosphere.


The prime determination of the air filter is to lessen the number of particles reaching the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. To achieve this goal, more attention must be paid to maintenance activities. The replacement of the air filter must be carried out by understanding the impact of early or delayed replacement on the life of the engine.


COVID-19 Pandemic to Decline Growth Backed by Halt in Automotive Production


The COVID-19 pandemic has had a rapid and serious impact on the globally integrated automotive industry and has halted automobile production worldwide. Since this industry growth is directly related to the production of vehicles, this situation is expected to affect the market. The decline in automobile production is expected to have an adverse effect on the automotive air filters industry. Also, the high cost of filters with ongoing fluctuations in prices of raw materials is likely to affect this market.


The effect of COVID-19 on this market has led to a halt of the production of air filters globally. This has further resulted in the disruptions of the supply chain among automotive manufacturers. However, post-COVID, the market is likely to show steady growth. The production of Hyundai and Suzuki were down by 30% due to inadequate inventories and lesser demand.


LATEST TRENDS

Adoption of Small Air Cleaner Systems is a Prominent Trend


In the past ten years, countless emission standards and engineering achievements were combined to create advanced, clean, and flexible engines. Diesel engines and vehicles driven by these engines require smaller air filter system packaging sizes, higher pollutant separation efficiency, superior pollutant loading performance, and surging temperature performance. They retain a lower initial airflow restriction. Engines that meet vehicle emission standards, have tighter component tolerances, and extended oil drains and oils, help to improve the performance of the overall air filtration system.


DRIVING FACTORS


Expansion of Automotive Industry is Expected to Drive Growth


The expanding automotive market, especially the surging production of passenger cars, is the main driving factor for the growth of this market. For instance, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), the production of a car accounted for approximately 15.8 million units in the European Union in 2019. Similarly, car consumers have also begun to realize the significance of air filters for purifying the air and isolating them from dust in the air, leading to a boom in the market. All these factors are responsible for the automotive air filters market growth.


Technological Advancements in Air Filters to Promote Growth


At present, air filters are made of cellulose media, which are costly in nature. Technological advancements in air filters such as synthetic media are now gaining popularity owing to its capabilities such as enhanced performance, less sensitivity to water, and improved airflow. The usage of such materials would lead to improved and increased fuel efficiency and complete combustion of the fuel of engines. All these advanced properties of synthetic media are expected to drive the growth of this market over the forecast period.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Rising Adoption of Electric Vehicles May Restrain Growth


The rising interest of consumers towards plug-in/battery electric vehicles owing to their capabilities such as non-emission vehicles and non-consumption of fuels such as gasoline and diesel is most likely to hamper the growth of the market over the forecast period. Moreover, less maintenance cost, lowering the overall expended costs may also drive the growth of electric vehicles (EVs) that are eco-friendly. Thus, the rising popularity of electric vehicles among consumers is projected to hamper and lower the automotive air filters market size over the forecast period.


SEGMENTATION


By Vehicle Type Analysis


Passenger Car Segment to Hold the Largest Share Stoked by Their High Sales & Production


Based on the vehicle type, the market for automotive air filters is segmented into passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, and electric vehicles. The passenger car segment accounts for the major share in the global market due to the rising production and sales of these cars. The commercial vehicle segment is also expected to show good growth in the market over the forecast period owing to the frequent replacement of air filters.


By Product Analysis

Air Intake Filter Segment is Expected to Hold the Maximum Share


Based on the product, the market is segmented into air intake filters and cabin air filters. The air intake filters segment holds the largest automotive air filters market share in the global market owing to the requirement of regular maintenance of engines for better fuel efficiency. However, the cabin air filters segment is also expected to experience good growth in the market owing to the rising inclination of people to having clean and fresh air in the cabin. Hence, regular cabin air filters are being replaced rapidly.


By End-User Analysis


OEM Segment to Dominate Fueled by Rising Production of Vehicles


Based on the end-user, the market is segmented into OEM and aftermarket. The OEM segment is expected to dominate the market due to the rising production of vehicles. However, the aftermarket segment is also expected to showcase an exponential growth in the market owing to the rising replacement of air intake filters in vehicles as they have good fuel efficiency.
