The global automotive headrest market was valued at $11.2 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $18.4 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2024 to 2032. 

The car seat is equipped with an automotive headrest, which serves as a passive safety feature. Its primary function is to provide protection to both the driver and passengers in the event of a collision or a sudden shake, specifically safeguarding against neck injuries. The rise of new mobility services is expected to decrease the number of private vehicle purchases. However, the increased sales of shared vehicles, which undergo more frequent replacement due to wear and tear, are projected to counterbalance this effect. As consumers increasingly opt for ride-sharing or carpooling services, they prioritize comfortable seating. Therefore, the presence of comfortable seats and headrests becomes crucial for ensuring a pleasant and relaxing journey. 

The growth of the global automotive headrest industry is propelled due to several factors such as rise in demand for powered seats in midsegment cars and SUVs, shared mobility is expected to create demand for new cars. Moreover, rise in trend toward automated driving driven by R&D of driver assistance systems drives the growth of the market. Autonomous vehicles are less prone to cause accidents. OEMs include more safety features and components in vehicle seats, such as airbags, seatbelts, and headrests, to better protect passengers in the case of an accident. Market players in these areas look forward to advantages from the presence of well-known automakers and technological advancements. 

However, high class of advanced modular seats compared to conventional seats restrains the growth of the market. On the other hand, increase in the focus on autonomous cars and rise in preference for ride sharing provide lucrative growth opportunity for the development of the market during the forecast period. For instance, Toyota Boshoku primarily specializes in the production of interior components such as seats, door panels, and carpets. Although they work closely with automakers such as Toyota to engage directly in developing the autonomous car.
