The global automotive ignition system market size reached US$ 7.7 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 12.1 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% during 2022-2028.

The automotive ignition system refers to an ignition circuit that generates sparks or heat in automobiles. The three common methods of ignition used in these systems include compression ignition, simultaneous ignition and coil-on-plug (COP) ignition. They consist of an ignition switch, ignition coil, distributor, high tension cable and spark plug. These components supply high voltage current to the spark plugs in the engine cylinders, which produces electric sparks in the gaps between spark plugs. The heat generated from these sparks further ignites the compressed air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber, thereby powering the vehicle. As a result, automotive ignition systems find extensive applications in petrol engine vehicles, such as passenger cars, motorcycles, light and heavy commercial vehicles (L/HCVs).

The growing automotive industry across the globe represents one of the key factors driving the market growth. Due to rising environmental consciousness among the masses, there is an increasing demand for ignition systems that offer improved operational efficiency and fuel economy. This, along with the widespread adoption of laser ignition systems, is also favoring the market growth. Various technological advancements, such as rapid electrification of the automotive industry and the development of electronic ignition systems integrated with sensors, switches and transistors, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. In comparison to the traditionally used mechanical systems, these modern variants offer improved horsepower levels and more accurate and reliable flow of current. Other factors, including the implementation of favorable government policies to manage the levels of carbon emissions into the environment, along with rising expenditure capacities of consumers, are anticipated to drive the market further.
