Automotive Axle & Propeller Shaft Market by Axle Type (Live, Dead & Tandem), Axle Position (Front & Rear), Propeller Shaft Type (Single & Multi Piece), Passenger Car Propeller Shaft Material (Alloy & Carbon Fiber) and Region - Global Forecast to 2025
[135 Pages Report] The global automotive axle and propeller market size in terms of value is estimated to be USD 29.5 billion in 2019, which is projected to grow to USD 35.0 billion, by 2025 at a CAGR of 2.9%. Growing global vehicle production, increasing demand for luxury vehicles, and commercialization of new technologies towards light-weighting of the overall vehicle is expected to drive axle and propeller shaft market
Single piece leads the automotive propeller shaft market under the review period
The single piece is estimated to be the largest market for automotive propeller shaft market during the forecast period. The single piece propeller shaft is usually preferred in light-duty vehicles owing to the lesser distance between the engine and the rear axle along with benefits such as minimal frictional as well as mechanical losses. Also, these single piece shafts are lighter in weight than multi-piece, which offers efficient performance at a higher speed. Due to these factors, the single piece propeller shaft holds the largest share during the forecast period.
Live axle segment is expected to be the largest market, by axle type, during the forecast period
The live axle segment is set to register the largest market as compared with dead and tandem axles. Increasing focus towards optimizing vehicle performance and delivering higher torque would augment the live axle market. Also, growing vehicle production, as well as engineering advancements to cater to the changing customers need, would drive the market.
Alloy is estimated to be the highest consumed material during the forecast period
Alloys hold the maximum market share in the passenger car propeller industry. A majority of passenger car and light commercial vehicle are installed with propeller shaft made up of alloy material owing to its benefits such as satisfactory strength, stiffness, and lower cost. However, in case of high-speed performance, and efficient torque requirement, either the diameter of the metal shaft needs to be increased, or manufactured in the form of two or three-piece component. The shaft joints and couplings handle the service loads, high angles, terrain change, and need to have a support structure that further results in increased weight. Hence, the ongoing trend is shifting to design and develop propeller shafts, which are lightweight and cost-effective. As a result, suppliers are now more inclined toward using lightweight materials (carbon fiber) with high durability and comfort factors while designing drivetrain components, especially propeller shafts.
Europe is expected to account for the second largest market during the forecast period
Europe is estimated to be the second largest and established market for axles and propeller shafts and is projected to witness stable growth in the coming years. A major growth driver is expected to be stringent fuel-economy norms which would encourage research activities to develop lightweight solutions for vehicles. The increased production level in Germany, the UK, and France, along with the rise in premium vehicle sales, are estimated to drive the demand for axles and propeller shafts. Rising preference for comfort while driving by end-users would also positively impact the demand for a better quality of axles and propellers. Also, ZF Friedrichshafen AG (Germany), Dana Incorporated (US), GKN PLC (UK), IFA Rotorion (Germany), and Gestamp (Spain) are the key suppliers in the European market which are continually making R&D efforts to further extend the growth of automotive axle and propeller shaft market in Europe.

The study involves key activities to estimate the current size for the automotive axle and propeller shaft market. The first step defines the scope of the research study, which includes axle types, propeller shaft types, axle positions, materials, and regions to be considered in the study along with the assumptions and limitations to derive the market numbers. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and market analysis with industry experts across value chains through primary research. Bottom-up approach has been used for market estimation and calculating the size of the automotive axle and propeller shaft.
Secondary Research
The secondary sources referred for this research study include company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications such as International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), Canada Automobile Association (CAA), Europe Automobile Manufacturers Association (EAMA), investor presentations, and annual reports of key market players. Secondary data has been collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall market size, which is further validated by primary research.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after acquiring an understanding of the automotive axle and propeller shaft market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand (OEM) and supply side (automotive axle and propeller shaft manufacturers and distributors) players across four major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Oceania, and Rest of the World (South Africa and Brazil). Approximately 15% and 85% primary interviews were conducted from both the demand and supply side, respectively. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. In our canvassing of primaries, we have strived to cover various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, administration, etc. to provide a holistic viewpoint in our reports.
After interactions with industry participants, we have also conducted brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report.

Market Size Estimation
The bottom-up approach has been used to estimate and validate the size of the global axle and propeller shaft market. In this approach, the country-level vehicle production statistics for each vehicle type (passenger car, LCV, and HCV) have been considered.
To determine the market size, in terms of volume, for axle and propeller shaft, vehicle production numbers have been multiplied by country-level penetration of each technology considered in the study. This country-level market size, in terms of volume, of the global automotive axle and propeller shaft market, is then multiplied with the country-level average OE price (AOP) of each product. This results in the country-level market size, in terms of value. The summation of the country-level market gives the regional market, and further summation of the regional market provides the global automotive axle and propeller shaft market
Data Triangulation
All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns have been determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources. All parameters that are said to affect the markets covered in this research study have been accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, verified through primary research, and analyzed to obtain the final quantitative and qualitative data. This data has been consolidated, enhanced with detailed inputs and analysis from MarketsandMarkets, and presented in the report.
