Automotive EGR System Market: Overview

To reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases recirculated by the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, an EGR cooler is connected with the internal combustion engine. The EGR system is utilized in diesel and gasoline engines to minimize fuel emissions. Globally, one of the primary reasons for the increased utilization of EGR coolers in the automotive sector is the growing number of automobiles on the road. In addition, the government's rigorous regulations set on the automobile sector to reduce fuel emissions are driving car manufacturers to install EGR systems in their vehicles, which control gas emissions, and EGR coolers help lower gas temperatures. Thus increasing the demand in the coming years. Moreover, increased concern about air pollution levels has forced automakers to install exhaust gas recirculation systems (EGRs) in conjunction with catalytic converters not only in new vehicles but also in existing ones via retrofitting programs. These variables have aided in expanding automotive sales worldwide, hence propelling the growth pace.

Automotive exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR) helps in reducing NOx emissions in internal combustion engines. The system is used in both gasoline and diesel engines. In a gasoline engine, the recycled exhaust gas replaces some amount of combustible charge in the cylinder, whereas in a diesel engine, the exhaust gas replaces a certain amount of oxygen in the pre-combustion mixture.

Automotive EGR System Market: Drivers

Automotive exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems are extremely useful in recirculating and recycling gases generated by a vehicle in the vehicle combustion system. Governments from around the world have signed a variety of treaties to decrease air pollution caused by automobile emissions. Europe, as well as countries in the Asia Pacific such as Japan, India, China, and South Korea, use this technique. These countries have made the usage of the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) mandatory, which will aid in the reduction of gasoline emissions and drive growth in the worldwide automotive EGR systems market.

The surge in vehicle production and sales is propelling the market for automotive exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) coolers. Additionally, rigorous government emission rules are fueling market expansion. Moreover, new emission rules for car manufacturing are driving up demand for automotive exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) coolers. Furthermore, technological advancements are expected to drive the growth of the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler market.

Automotive EGR System Market: Restraint

The availability of replacements, high government standards, and pricing pressure rules for certification of automotive EGR systems are important barriers and hurdles to market expansion. High maintenance and replacement costs of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) coolers, on the other hand, are limiting market expansion.

Automotive EGR System Market: Segmentation

The automotive EGR system market is segregated based on product type, vehicle type, and application.

By product type, the market is classified into EGR coolers, EGR valves, and EGR pipes. In the forecast period, the EGR valve category held the largest market share and is expected to increase significantly over the forecast period. Companies are implementing cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to comply with the new emission requirements since the EGR cooler device aids in reducing nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx) for internal combustion engines.

By vehicle type, the market is classified into passenger vehicles, light commercial vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles. The passenger car segment is expected to be dominant during the forecast period due to expanding passenger car demand among a vast population pool, rising disposable per capita income in emerging countries, and global automakers' growth into new emerging markets.

By application, the market is classified into gasoline and diesel. During the projection period, the diesel segment is expected to increase at the fastest rate. EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) systems in diesel engines are commonly utilized in light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty vehicles. EGR reduces nitrogen oxide emissions in automobiles powered by diesel engines. Additionally, it aids in improving vehicle performance and average per mile. As a result, the diesel category is expanding rapidly in the global market.
