Automotive NVH Materials Market - Historic Data (2019-2024), Global Trends 2025, Growth Forecasts 2037
Automotive NVH Materials Market in 2025 is evaluated at USD 12.87 billion. The global Market size was worth over USD 12.3 billion in 2024 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of around 5.8%, reaching USD 25.6 billion revenue by 2037. Asia Pacific is anticipated to collect majority share by 2037, fueled by increased production and sales of automobiles, and the presence of major vehicle exporters and importers.
The growth of the market can be attributed to the rapid growth in the automotive industry worldwide. For instance, the global automotive industry is expected to reach approximately USD 9 trillion by 2030. Further, the significantly rising production and use of heavy commercial vehicles is another key factor that is anticipated to fuel the market growth during the projected time frame.
In addition to these, factors that are believed to fuel the market growth of automotive NVH materials include the rising demand for these materials on the back of their outstanding properties including lightweight and comprising exceptional diesel, water, and oil resistance. Besides this, the increasing demand for hybrid and fuel-efficient vehicles is another major factor to drive the market expansion over the forecast period. For instance, approximately 280,500 hybrid and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles were sold in the United States between April and June 2022. Noise, vibration, and harshness in automobiles, especially in light vehicles, caused by structure-borne and air-borne noises, can be uncomfortable for passengers and reduce vehicle durability. Thus, the use of NVH reduction materials in vehicles assists in the elimination of such noises and the enhancement of ride quality. Moreover, with rapid urbanization, the demand for vehicles has increased considerably, which is also projected to boost the market growth over the projected time frame.
Automotive NVH Materials Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Growth in Production of Heavy Vehicles – Heavy vehicles are being extensively produced owing to their benefits in transportation, driving for long kilometers, and many more. However, owing to its sturdy nature, heavy raw materials, and sturdy components, generate the need for automotive NVH materials for enhanced road performance. Thus, the increased production of heavy vehicles is expected to increase the utilization rate of global automotive NVH materials market in the forecast period. The latest report published in 2022 stated that the production of medium and heavy vehicles in North America increased by almost 5% over 2021.
- Increased Demand and Production of Vehicles – A surge in urbanization and increasing middle-class income resulted in an increased demand for vehicles that positively influenced the production of vehicles too. The latest reports released by the Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) stated that the global production of vehicles reached around 80 million units in 2021. That denotes a considerable rise from the year 2020, with 77 million vehicles.
- High Manufacturing Rate of Sports Cars – NVH materials are used extensively in luxury and sports cars, as required by the manufacturers. Therefore, the surging production of sports cars is another major factor that is anticipated to boost the global automotive NVH materials market over the forecast period. For instance, as per estimations, sports car sales are anticipated to reach more than 1,000.0K vehicles in the year 2027 across the globe.
- Growing Sales and Production of Electric Vehicles – For instance, in 2021, one out of every ten automobiles sold was an electric vehicle. Currently, there are more than 16 million electric vehicles on the road across the globe.
- Population Explosion with Middle Income - World Bank calculated the total population with middle income in the world to rose from 5.51 Billion in 2015 to 5.86 Billion in 2021.
Challenges
- Stringent Government Rules Regarding Carbon Dioxide Emission – An increased ratio of carbon emission has made the government of nations to impose strict regulations to lower it. Thus, several governments have taken steps by making rules to decrease carbon footprints. For instance, for model years 2023–2026 of passenger automobiles and light trucks, the Environmental Protection Agency of the U.S. (EPA) finalized new national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions regulations in December 2021. The final guidelines would result in significant reductions in GHG emissions as well as other criterion pollutants.
- Installation of Active Noise Cancellation Systems
- Increase in Overall Vehicle Weight
