Sales Analysis of Automotive Oil Pans from 2016 to 2020 Vs Market Outlook for 2021 to 2031

According to Fact.MR - a market research and competitive intelligence provider, historically, from 2016 to 2020, market demand in terms of volume decreased by 4% CAGR due to the impact of COVID-19, where 2020 saw a rapid decline in automotive production and sales, which affected demand for automotive oil pans. The overall market for automotive oil pans is dominated by countries such as the U.S., China, Japan, India, Germany, Mexico, and South Korea.

On a global basis, demand for newly designed oil pans with lightweight qualities has doubled in the previous few years, which can be attributed to increased spending on research & development by major car manufacturers and suppliers. Automotive oil pans are increasingly manufactured from composites that are less expensive than metal. As a result, the price gap between metal and composite engine oil pans is significant.

Automotive oil pans are designed to absorb maximum amount of engine noise and vibration, and this goes well in meeting growing demand for noiseless automobiles. In the foreseeable future, an increase in vehicle manufacturing is predicted to boost demand for automobile oil pans.

Considering these statistics and shift in dynamics, the market for automotive oil pans is forecast to expand at a healthy CAGR of around 5% over the coming 10 years.

What are the Key Opportunities for Automotive Oil Pan Manufacturers?

As technology advances, high-end car owners and fleet owners of big commercial vehicles are increasingly looking for improved performance and fuel economy. As a result, throughout the forecast period, growth of luxury cars and high-end commercial vehicles is expected to generate huge potential for oil pan manufacturers.

In regions such as Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific, demand for cars and commercial vehicles is expanding. Increased disposable income and shifting demographics, particularly in nations such as India and China, are chiefly responsible for this growth. Increase in premium and luxury vehicles is also likely to create large demand for automobile oil pans.

To maintain a competitive edge in the automobile engine oil pan market, most manufacturers concentrate on product differentiation. To adapt to ever-changing consumer demands, automakers are implementing quick changes in automotive and related product designs.

What Roadblocks Do Automotive Oil Pan Suppliers Have to Encounter?

An oil pan is a critical component of the engine cooling system that is rarely replaced. The replacement rate for oil pans varies depending on the category, ranging from 0.1 percent to 2% of the global vehicle fleet.

With advancements in technologies, this replacement rate is expected to further reduce over the forecast period, thus, offering very low aftermarket potential for automotive oil pan manufacturers across the globe.

What is the Major Driving Factor for Automotive Oil Pan Sales?

The automobile oil pan market is linked to vehicle sales. Despite recent economic instability, the global automotive industry has grown at a reasonable rate on average. Over the forecast period, automotive output is expected to increase at a modest CAGR of 3 to 4%. Increasing automobile production and sales is expected to be a primary factor propelling demand for automotive oil pans throughout the forecast period.

Improved design characteristics with more temperature sustainability and composite materials are now being used in automotive oil pans to reduce total vehicle weight while also increasing robustness. Oil pans for automobiles are usually made of thin steel and formed into deeper sections to hold oil that comes out of the crankcase.

Oil pans are situated beneath the crankcase and serve as a reservoir for the oil. To prevent engine oil contamination and leakage, automotive oil pans are constructed as a sealed unit. Due to the rise of the automotive industry, the market for automotive oil pans will see a major increase in size.  OEM sales of automotive oil steel pans is set to increase substantially over the years.

Which Region Offers the Largest Opportunity for Automotive Oil Pan Manufacturers?

With an incremental opportunity of more than US$ 3 Bn, East Asia is expected to be the most lucrative market for automotive oil pan suppliers. China leads the East Asian market and is predicted to increase at a significant growth rate through 2031.

Chinese consumers' interest in the automotive industry has increased dramatically in recent years as a result of the country's rapid economic growth and changes in lifestyle. During the predicted period, Europe and South Asia & Pacific will emerge as competitor markets for East Asia with significant growth potential.

The automobile sector in China is expected to be among the most opportunistic as a result of expanded automotive operations. Due to rising number of automobiles in the country, China's automotive sector has grown in lockstep with the number of manufacturers.

The automotive supplier landscape in China is extremely fragmented. Bulk of foreign automakers and component manufacturers have extensively invested in China in order to gain a competitive advantage.

What Makes the U.S. a Lucrative market for Manufacturers of Automotive Oil Pans?

The U.S. is predicted to remain one of the most attractive markets during the forecast period, according to Fact.MR. According to the study, the U.S. is expected to account for over 83% of the North American market through 2031.

Development of a number of new businesses as well as quick technology advancements in different countries will continue to fuel significant growth of the market in the country. Rapidly growing demand for passenger cars and commercial vehicles is likely to lend added growth opportunities to the market for oil pans in the country.

Category-wise Insights

Which Type of Automotive Oil Pan Holds Highest Growth Potential?

Based on type, structural oil pans is the leading category, expected to account for nearly 62% of the market share by 2031. The main reason is structural oil pans are normally made with one piece cast aluminium material, which adds stiffness to engine block and transmission.

Which Type of Vehicle Has Prominent Share in Usage of Automotive Oil Pans?

In both, passenger cars and commercial vehicles, automotive oil pans have been gaining significant traction. Passenger cars will account for around 75% demand for automotive oil pans, according to market projections.

Which material is Mainly Preferred for Manufacturing Automotive Oil Pans?

During the forecast period, oil pans made from aluminium will hold highest share of 55%. Aluminium has greater thermal conductivity, allowing the oil pan to draw more heat from the oil, and is predicted to dominate the global market.

Furthermore, many manufacturers favour aluminium because of its lightweight properties, which aids in greater vehicle performance. With expanding demand and requirement for minimum noise from automobiles, automotive oil pans are being designed to absorb as much engine noise and vibration as possible.

Which Channel Sees Maximum Sales of Automotive Oil Pans? 

The OEMs segment is expected to hold more than 93% market share by 2031. During the projected period, sales through OEMs are expected to rise faster than aftermarket sales of automotive oil steel pans.

What Impact Has the COVID-19 Crisis Had on the Sales of Automotive Oil Pans?

Compulsory lockdowns across several nations impacted economies all over the world. Limited production and transportation-related delays due to travel restrictions caused obstacles during the outbreak. Despite the difficult circumstances, economies are steadily improving. As supply and distribution networks are re-established, business activity has slowly but gradually increased. As a result, the pandemic is unlikely to have a long-term effect on the market for automotive oil pans.
