Europe Automotive Turbocharger Market Outlook, 2027

Europe Automotive Turbocharger Market Outlook, 2027

A turbocharger is an integral part of any internal combustion engine that enhances the performance of the vehicle. A turbocharger increases the amount of air intake in the combustion chamber with the help of unused exhaust air. Also, the turbocharger plays an important role in improving the efficiency of a particular vehicle. Turbochargers are gaining popularity in Europe as a result of their benefits such as lower harmful emissions, increased fuel economy, and improved engine performance. From the research, it has been estimated that a turbocharger fitted to a 1.8-litre engine can deliver the peak power of a 3-litre naturally aspirated unit. However, it uses 15% less fuel compared to conventional vehicles. Demand for turbochargers in Europe is rapidly increasing because direct injection diesel engines are witnessing higher adoption in passenger cars. Currently, more than 75% of new vehicles sold in Europe are equipped with turbochargers, and this figure is expected to rise by the forecast period. In the European automotive industry, large naturally aspirated engines are being replaced by smaller and more efficient turbo engines. Turbo-charging is considered a mature technology across the region. In addition to that, recent developments in the automotive industry have also significantly boosted the demand for turbochargers in Europe.

According to the research report, ""Europe Automotive Turbocharger Market Outlook, 2027"" published by Bonafide Research, the automotive turbocharger market is projected to have a 13.12% CAGR during the forecast period. The advent of strict emission regulations and fuel-efficiency norms enforced by the European government are expected to drive the market growth for turbochargers. In addition to that, demands for downsizing of engines in order to reduce overall weight are estimated to boost the need for turbochargers across the region. As a global leader in engineering and manufacturing, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) group delivers innovative and integrated products into a wide range of industries. As for the European region, the company has a division named Mitsubishi Turbocharger and Engine Europe B.V. The European automotive turbocharger market is segmented into six countries, including Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, and Russia. Among these countries, Germany is anticipated to have the maximum market share during the forecast period. Germany has substantial potential for hybrid and electric vehicle development due to rising demand for hybrid and electric vehicles across the country. The presence of major manufacturers in the country, such as Cummins, Mitsubishi, and BorgWarner, is fuelling the market. For that reason, Germany has become the essential centre for research and development for product innovation. According to OICA statistics, total vehicle production in Germany was calculated to be 986635 units. During the forecast period, this ratio is anticipated to reach more than 2372700 units.

According to the report, the European automotive turbocharger market is segregated into three technology types: variable geometry turbochargers, wastegate turbochargers, and electric turbochargers. Among these types, the variable geometry turbocharger segment is projected to lead the market with more than 70% of the market share in terms of value. Higher VGT performance and increased GDI popularity are expected to drive future turbocharger adoption in Europe. Variable geometry turbochargers are mostly used in diesel-powered engines. That propels the higher adoption of diesel engines as well. The market is categorized into two types based on the fuel type: diesel and gasoline. Higher adoption and cost-efficient qualities of diesel engines are boosting the demand for them. However, the gasoline segment is expected to witness higher market growth during the forecast period due to the higher penetration of various industries in this segment.

The European automotive turbocharger market is further segmented into two vehicle types: passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles. Among these types, the passenger vehicle segment is expected to lead the market by holding more than 85% of the market share by 2027. Higher production and the emergence of passenger cars compared to commercial vehicles in Europe are fuelling the market's growth. The market is divided into two types based on the sales channel: original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and aftermarket. Among these types, original equipment manufacturers are expected to acquire a higher portion of the market during the forecast period in Europe. On the other hand, the aftermarket sales channel is projected to rise with a promising CAGR of more than 20% during the forecast period.
