US Automotive Turbocharger Market (2024-2029)

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The research study involved various secondary sources, such as company annual reports/presentations, industry association publications, automotive turbocharger magazine articles, directories, technical handbooks, world economic outlook, trade websites, technical articles, and databases, which were used to identify and collect information for an extensive study of the automotive turbocharger market. Primary sources—experts from related industries, automobile OEMs, and suppliers—were interviewed to obtain and verify critical information and assess prospects and market estimations.

Secondary Research

The automotive turbocharger market is directly dependent on vehicle production. The vehicle production is derived from various secondary sources such as automotive industry organizations, corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements), trade analysis, paid repositories, and automotive associations such as Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA). Historical production data was collected and analyzed, and the industry trend is considered to arrive at the forecast, further validated by primary research. All the data was collected and analyzed to determine the overall market size, further validated by primary research.

Primary Research

In the primary research process, various sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information on the market. Primary sources from the supply side included various 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.

After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants were conducted to reinforce the findings from the primaries. This and the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions have led to the findings described in this report's remainder.

Market Size Estimation

The bottom-up approach was used to estimate and validate the size of the automotive turbocharger market. This approach considered the vehicle production statistics for each vehicle type (passenger cars, LCVs, trucks, and buses) at a country and regional level. The country-level penetration of turbochargers in gasoline, diesel & alternate fuel/CNG engines is derived through country-wise model mapping of vehicle types, validated through primary respondents. This gives the country-level gasoline and diesel turbochargers market by vehicle and turbo types. The summation of the country-level markets gives the regional market, and further summation of the regional markets provides the global on-highway turbocharger market. A similar methodology was followed to estimate the automotive turbocharger market for off-highway vehicles (construction equipment, agricultural tractors, and mining equipment).

Automotive Turbocharger Market: Top-Down Approach

The top-down approach was followed to determine the market size, in terms of volume, for turbochargers by material. The global automotive turbocharger market derives the region-wise volume of turbocharged light-duty (passenger car & LDV) and heavy-duty (HDV) vehicles. The average weight of the turbocharger is derived from secondary sources and is validated through primary interviews. The average percentage of cast iron, aluminum, and other materials for turbocharger components is derived from secondary sources. Then, the total number of turbocharged LDVs is multiplied by the average weight of the turbocharger and the share of each material type. This gives the total weight of each material type. This calculation was repeated for heavy-duty vehicles as well.

Data Triangulation

All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns have been determined using secondary sources and verified by the primary sources. All parameters that affect the markets covered in this research study have been accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, and analyzed to obtain the final quantitative and qualitative data. This data has been consolidated and enhanced with detailed inputs and analysis from MarketsandMarkets and presented in the report. The following figure is an illustrative representation of the overall market size estimation process employed for this study.

Market Definition

A turbocharger can compress more air into the engine’s cylinder. The oxygen molecules are packed closer together when the air is compressed. This increase in the air means more fuel can be added to a naturally aspirated engine of the same size. The same engine then generates increased mechanical power and improves the overall efficiency of the combustion process. Therefore, the engine size can be reduced to a turbocharged engine, leading to better packaging, weight-saving benefits, and improved fuel economy.
