Automotive Automatic Transmission Market Growth Factors: What’s Supporting Expansion?
The rising shift towards electric vehicles is expected to propel the growth of the automotive automatic transmission market going forward. Electric and hybrid vehicles are automobiles powered by one or more electric motors, either exclusively or in combination with an internal combustion engine, offering reduced environmental impact and increased energy efficiency. The rising popularity of electric vehicles is driven by factors such as environmental concerns, government incentives, advancements in battery technology, and increasing consumer demand for fuel efficiency. Automotive automatic transmission systems are utilized in electric vehicles to manage power delivery and enhance driving performance efficiently. For instance, in April 2023, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), a France-based autonomous intergovernmental organization, global electric car sales experienced a notable surge of 3.5 million units in 2023 compared to 2022, representing a substantial 35% year-on-year increase. Therefore, the rising shift towards electric vehicles is driving the growth of the automotive automatic transmission market.
