[180 Pages Report] The Automotive Thermal Management Market size was estimated at USD 40.58 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 42.58 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 5.48% to reach USD 58.99 billion by 2030.
Automotive thermal management refers to the system and processes within a vehicle that maintain optimal thermal conditions for passengers’ comfort, efficiency, and longevity of vehicle components. This involves regulating the temperature of various systems and parts, such as the engine, transmission, electric motor, battery, and cabin space. Efficient thermal management is crucial in ensuring that these components operate within their ideal temperature ranges, thereby enhancing performance, reducing emissions, improving energy efficiency, and ensuring the security and convenience of vehicle occupants. The automotive thermal management system finds applications across various segments, such as engine cooling, battery thermal management for electric and hybrid vehicles, HVAC for passenger comfort, and transmission system cooling. The end-users of these systems include passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and high-performance sports cars, with customized solutions for electric and hybrid vehicles significantly influencing the market scope. Factors contributing to the development of the automotive thermal management market include increasing vehicular emission standards, growing demand for energy-efficient vehicle systems, advancements in automotive electronics, and rising sales of electric and hybrid vehicles. However, the expansion of automotive thermal management is hindered by various challenges, such as high costs associated with advanced thermal management systems, particularly for EVs, complexities involved in integrating thermal management with other vehicular systems, and technological challenges, such as heat dissipation in increasingly compact vehicles. On the other hand, the integration of advanced materials, including phase change materials (PCMs) and thermoelectric materials that improve system efficiency, adoption of HVAC systems with environmentally-friendly refrigerants, and incorporation of smart thermal management systems capable of autonomous regulation presents potential opportunities for the widespread adoption of automotive thermal management.
