Market Dynamics

Increase in South Korean automotive exports

South Korea is a major production hub for the global automotive industry, with leading brands such as Hyundai and KIA being based in the country. The country is also a leading exporter of automobiles, with more than US$ 50 billion worth of cars being exported in 2022, representing a growth of 16.4% over the previous year, according to data from Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. Automobile exports require extensive regulatory testing and certification, especially since many export markets do not have well-developed testing infrastructure.

New stringent government regulations will create lucrative opportunities for South Korea automotive TIC market growth.

The South Korean government has created several stringent regulations in recent years pertaining to automotive safety and emission standards. Recently, in May 2023, the South Korean government has announced plans to further tighten safety standards for electric vehicle batteries following growing concerns over battery fires. New stringent government regulations are likely to lead to new testing protocols and propel the South Korea automotive TIC market growth.
