Market Introduction

The US, Canada, and Mexico are the major economies in North America that have witnessed growth in their automotive industry. The region has the largest vehicle industry due to the presence of the majority of car manufacturers. Increased supply of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles are expected to increase the demand. The region is witnessing an exponential rise in the vehicle production in past few years. This rise can be attributed to favorable economic conditions and government initiatives to promote safety while driving and reducing road accidents. These factors have helped in improving the economy and increasing disposable income of consumers. Therefore, with the boosted demand for improved performance and luxury cars in North America, evolving road safety regulations & norms have resulted into decreased stopping distance for vehicles. This, in turn, has increased the preference for disc brakes over old drum brakes. Electric vehicles are projected to play an increasingly important role in North American transportation networks as a result of falling electric vehicle prices and increased acceptance by the general public. Studies claim that electric vehicles would account for at least 65% of overall car purchases in the US by 2050. As electric cars have regenerative braking in their system, the requirement of hydraulic braking got reduced. For instance, in 2020, the automobile industry in the US, delivered almost 14.5 million light vehicle units. The rising vehicle sales is a key enabler for the market, especially in developed economies such as the US and Canada. The rising demand for electric cars is affecting disc brake sales in the region. Owing to all these factors, the market for automotive disc brakes in the region will gradually grow.

In case of COVID-19, the US, Canada, and Mexico have witnessed a significant rise in the number of COVID-19 infected patients across North America. The continuous growth of infected individuals has led the North America governments to impose lockdown across the nation’s borders. Majority of the manufacturing plants are shut down, municipalities are functioning slowly as compared to past, and the automotive & semiconductor industries are at a halt. The COVID-19 outbreak has negatively impacted the automotive industry in the region. In the United States, assembly plant closures are adding to the intense pressure on an increasingly distressed North America supply base where companies are at risk of defaulting on covenants, potentially requiring banks to step in. Further, sales forecast for the US estimate a decline of 9% annually that consumers are not buying new vehicles due to the pandemic, according to Accenture website data. Thus, limited supply of vehicle parts, shut of manufacturing, supply chain disruption, and drop in new vehicle sales has negatively impacted the North America automotive disc brake market. However, in 2021, with the uplifting of lockdown restrictions and vaccination processes, the automotive production has started again, and people are looking for purchase, which helps in creating a positive scenario for the North America automotive disc brake market growth.

    Market Overview and Dynamics

    The North America automotive disc brake market is expected to grow from US$ 2,851.20 million in 2021 to US$ 3,490.86 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 2.9% from 2021 to 2028. With the rising growth of the electric vehicles (EVs) industry, the adoption of braking systems is growing exponentially. With an aim to reduce harmful impact of emissions on environment, the government bodies operating across the region are taking necessary steps to promote electric vehicles. For instance, the electric vehicles initiative is a multi-government policy forum which fosters introduction and adoption of electric vehicles. With an increase in the use of electric vehicles, the scope of using advanced braking systems will also increase. Many electric cars utilize both regenerative & mechanical braking systems together. In an electric car brake system, the regenerative & mechanical braking systems assist in saving the energy. In addition to energy-saving, the regenerative braking technology also assists in enhancing the life of friction brake system. For instance, Brembo focuses on developing advanced brakes suitable for electric vehicles. Similarly, Continental AG is putting emphasis on restructuring disc brakes for electric vehicles. The company has created a minimalist brake caliper which removes all superfluous material to lower weight to a bare minimum. In addition, the company is exploring the possibility of lightweight aluminum brake components with a potential to handle electric vehicle’s reduced braking demands with minimal price and weight as compared to brakes used today. Additionally, with rising demand for lightweight auto-components, an inclination of disc brakes manufacturers has been witnessed. The demand for lightweight components is encouraging companies like Continental AG to use aluminum instead of iron cast in their braking system & design. This factor is predicted to generate beneficial opportunities for the manufacturers of both auto and components like disc brakes across North America region.
