Market Dynamics

Increasing Demand for Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Hybrid Vehicles

Globally the share of hybrid electric passenger cars has increased. The operating range of internal combustion engines for hybrid electric vehicles is increasing compared with conventional ones and turbochargers are also required to be developed to address- this limitation. The key players such as Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engine & Turbocharger, Ltd. (MHIET) have developed high-efficiency compressors that meet the requirements of HEVs, vaned nozzle turbines designed for higher efficiency, ball bearings designed to reduce mechanical loss and low-cost turbine housing materials that are designed by using data science and have been proposed to automobile manufacturers. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in December 2023, hybrid vehicles reached a new high of 10.0% of all production. Strong and mild hybrid production grew, with mild hybrids accounting for 41.0% of overall hybrid production. The combined category of electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCVs) increased from 4.0% of production in the model year 2021 to 7.0% of production in the model year 2022 and are projected to reach 12.0% of production in the model year 2023.

Rising Demand for Fuel Efficiency

Turbochargers are being used in cars to increase fuel economy and lower carbon emissions as governments all over the globe are enforcing more stringent emissions laws regarding the use of emission-free vehicles. Turbochargers enable smaller engines to generate more power, contributing to improved fuel economy and lower emissions. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in December 2023, four of the five vehicle types had their lowest CO2 emissions and highest fuel economy ever in model year 2022. Car SUVs decreased CO2 emissions by 27 g/mi, pickups decreased by 18 g/mi, sedan/wagons decreased by 11 g/mi, and truck SUVs decreased by 4 g/mi. Minivan/vans, which accounted for less than 3.0% of new vehicle production in model year 2022, were the only vehicle type that had higher CO2 emissions in 2022 compared to 2021, increasing by 17 g/mi.

Market Segmentation

  • Based on the industry, the market is segmented into automotive, aerospace & defense, marine, and agriculture & construction.
  • Based on the technology, the market is segmented into twin-turbo technology, variable geometry technology, and wastegate technology.
  • Based on the sales channel, the market is segmented into OEM and aftermarket.
  • Based on the engine type, the market is segmented into diesel engines, gasoline engines, and hybrid engines.

Twin-Turbo Technology is Projected to Hold the Largest Segment

Prominent automakers are implementing the dual automotive turbocharger technology to increase output. Additionally, growing consumer demand for high-performance automobiles and stricter emissions and fuel-efficiency standards further promote the use of this technology. When compared to single turbochargers, twin turbochargers improve power production and efficiency, which results in improved engine performance. To create lightweight, compact twin turbocharger systems that satisfy performance and reliability standards set by the automobile industry, major players are concentrating on innovation. For instance, in March 2022, Stellantis introduced its new, 3.0-liter, twin-turbo, inline, six-cylinder engine, named Hurricane, that delivers better fuel economy and fewer emissions than larger engines while at the same time generates more horsepower and torque than many competitors’ naturally aspirated V-8 and boosted six-cylinder power plants.

Regional Outlook

The global turbocharger market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (the UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). 

Growing Demand for Turbocharger in Asia-Pacific

Asia-Pacific accounts for the biggest production share of both passenger cars and commercial vehicles, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to be the largest market for automotive turbochargers. The demand for economy and mid-range vehicles (including Class A, B, and C) is stronger in major countries such as China and India, where gasoline engines will account for between 50.0% and 90.0% of sales in 2023. Small cars, such as SUVs and crossovers, are the most popular in Asia-Pacific. Additionally, the regional manufacturers concentrate on reducing their engines by using different turbocharger technology. The OEMs have adopted smaller gasoline direct injection (GDI) with turbochargers to obtain similar or superior power than naturally aspirated engines in light of recent government attempts to encourage alternative fuel cars.

Global Turbocharger Market Growth by Region 2024-2031

global turbocharger market growth, by region

North America Holds Major Market Share

North America holds a significant share owing to the presence of the major turbocharger offering companies such as BorgWarner, Inc., Cummins, Inc., Honeywell International, Inc., and others. The market growth is attributed to the rapid uptake of turbocharged gasoline direct injection (TGDI) engines in gasoline-powered automobiles. As passenger cars are used so often in the region, passenger vehicle turbochargers account for more than 60.0% of the market.  The key players have produced fuel cell car turbochargers, which increase power generation efficiencies by providing clean air to fuel cell batteries. It is also expected that the growth of fuel cell technology in the passenger car market will support the development above and propel the industry growth for turbochargers. For instance, in August 2022, Cummins, Inc. introduced the 8TH Generation Holset Series 400 Variable Geometry Turbocharger. Cummins Turbo Technologies (CTT) 7th generation 400 series Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT) to help engine manufacturers meet future emission standards and offer class fuel economy. It is specifically engineered for class performance, reliability, and durability for the 10-15L heavy-duty truck market.
