Global Truck Rear Hydraulic Retarders Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Truck Rear Hydraulic Retarders market size was valued at US$ 1092 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1605 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.7% during review period.

Truck rear hydraulic retarder is an advanced auxiliary braking system installed at the end of the vehicle transmission system, mainly used in large commercial vehicles such as heavy trucks and buses. It uses hydraulic resistance to slow down, thereby reducing the burden on the main braking system, extending the service life of brake pads and tires, and improving driving safety. When the driver activates the retarder, hydraulic oil is pumped into one or more working chambers, forcing relative movement between the rotor and the stator. The friction generated is converted into heat energy and dissipated, thereby achieving vehicle deceleration.

Global Truck Rear Hydraulic Retarders key players include Voith, ZF, Scania, Jacobs Vehicle Systems and Shaanxi Fast Auto Drive Group, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share over 85%.

The largest market is China, has a share about 35%, followed by North America and Europe, with around 20% and 22% market share respectively.

In terms of product, Parallel Hydraulic Retarders is the largest segment, with a share about 50%. And in terms of application, the largest application is 18-55 Tons, has a share over 60%, followed by 55-100 Tons and Above 100 Tons.

Modern hydraulic retarders are increasingly connected to the vehicle's electronic control system to automatically adjust the braking torque, diagnose faults, and work seamlessly with other on-board systems. This intelligent control not only improves driving safety and comfort, but also optimizes overall vehicle performance. Increasingly stringent environmental regulations have driven the development of low-noise, high-efficiency hydraulic retarders. Manufacturers are committed to developing more energy-efficient and emission-compliant products that reduce heat generation and friction losses, while also reducing maintenance costs.
