An automotive air brake system is a type of braking system used in vehicles that utilise compressed air as a medium to transmit force from the brake pedal to the brake drums or discs. It is commonly used in commercial vehicles such as trucks, buses, and trailers, where the braking requirements are higher compared to passenger vehicles.
The automotive air brake system demand growth is driven by increasing demand for heavy-duty trucks, rising urbanisation, strict laws on safety measures for heavy-duty vehicles and congestion in cities, which increases the demand for vehicles equipped with advanced braking technologies to improve safety and manoeuvring. The adoption of air brake systems meets the growing requirement for dependable transportation solutions in urban and suburban settings. The present hydraulic brake systems are unable to generate sufficient energy to stop fully charged medium-duty vehicles and may cause safety-related problems, thus, fuelling the increasing demand for automotive air brake systems.
According to NITI Aayog RMI, the number of trucks in India is projected to increase significantly, rising from 4 million in 2022 to approximately 17 million by 2050.
Regulatory requirements, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), Integration of sensors and electronics, and lightweight materials and design are the major trends impacting global automotive air brake system market value.
Stringent global safety regulations are compelling automakers to adopt advanced braking systems that not only enhance vehicle safety but also improve overall performance and reliability, impacting the automotive air brake system demand forecast.
ADAS technologies such as automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control require more responsive and precise brake systems to enhance safety and support autonomous driving features.
Braking systems are increasingly integrating sensors and electronic controls to monitor brake performance, optimise braking force distribution, and provide real-time feedback to the vehicle's control systems.
Manufacturers are focusing on developing lightweight brake components using advanced materials like carbon composites and aluminium alloys to improve fuel efficiency and reduce overall vehicle weight.
The expansion of automotive industry in emerging economies, coupled with increasing vehicle production and sales globally, is driving the demand for reliable and efficient air brake systems, thus increasing the automotive air brake system market revenue. Moreover, there is a growing demand for brake systems that offer longer service intervals, reduced maintenance requirements, and improved durability to lower operational costs for fleet operators and vehicle owners.
There is a gradual shift from traditional drum brakes to more efficient air disc brakes (ADB). ADBs offer better performance in terms of braking distance, heat dissipation, and maintenance, thereby gaining popularity in commercial vehicles and high-performance passenger vehicles.
