The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the automotive brake system market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer, and parent markets. The next step was to validate these findings and assumptions and size them with industry experts across value chains through primary research. The bottom-up and top-down approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the automotive brake system market. The secondary sources referred to in this research study include Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), MEMA Brake Manufacturers Council (BMC), Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA); corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements); and trade, business, and automotive associations. Additionally, secondary research has been carried out to understand the average selling prices of disc and drum brakes by vehicle type, historic sales of new vehicles, and vehicle parc. Secondary data has been collected and analyzed to determine the overall market size, further validated by primary research.
In the primary research process, various primary sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information on the market. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts such as CXOs, vice presidents, directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from various key companies. Various system integrators, industry associations, independent consultants/industry veterans, and key opinion leaders were also interviewed.
Primary interviews have been conducted to gather insights such as ICE vehicle and off-highway equipment sales forecast, disc & drum brake market penetration & forecast, future technology trends, and upcoming technologies in the automotive brake system industry. Data triangulation was then done with the information gathered from secondary research. Stakeholders from the demand and supply side have been interviewed to understand their views on the points mentioned above.
Primary interviews have been conducted with market experts from the demand and supply side across four major regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Primary data has been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. In canvassing primaries, we have strived to cover various departments within organizations, such as sales and operations, to provide a holistic viewpoint in our report.
After interacting with industry experts, we have also conducted brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This and the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions have led us to the findings described in the remainder of this report.

After arriving at the overall market size, the market was split into several segments and sub-segments using the market size estimation processes explained above. Where applicable, data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed to complete the overall market engineering process and determine each market segment's and sub-segments exact statistics. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends.
According to Warner Brake, a typical brake system consists of an ABS control module, disc brakes, drum brakes, brake pedal, emergency brake, wheel speed sensors, brake booster, and master cylinder. Disc brakes are usually found on the front wheels and feature brake pads that press against a disc (rotor) when the brake pedal is applied to stop the vehicle. The pads are attached to a brake caliper assembly that frames the rotor. Located on the vehicle's rear, drum brakes feature wheel cylinders, brake shoes, and a brake drum. When the brake pedal is pressed, the brake shoes are forced into the brake drum by the wheel cylinders, bringing the vehicle to a stop.
According to WABCO, anti-lock braking systems (ABS) are active safety systems that assist drivers in situations where road friction, curvature, and vehicle speed result in unfavorable wheel slips. The system automatically intervenes to help keep the vehicle stable and controllable across various maneuvers.
