Market Overview:

The global automotive logistics market size reached US$ 266.9 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 382.7 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.23% during 2023-2028. The rising automotive production and sales, shifting consumer inclination toward electric vehicles (EVs), and the augmenting need for spare auto parts for the existing vehicle fleet represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Automotive logistics involves coordinating, warehousing, and moving finished vehicles and related auto components and replacement parts from supplier to consumer. It provides seamless transportation, storage, unloading, loading, distribution, and data processing of resources, including spare automobile parts, production material, equipment, inventory, and whole cars, to the desired destination. The process comprises the management of the flow of goods from the point of origin to the point of consumption to ensure a smooth flow of operations and meet customer requirements. It aids in lowering costs, generating revenue in the supply chain, and facilitating the effective management of logistical operations while ensuring the availability of raw materials. As a result, automotive logistics forms a crucial part of supply chain management across the automobile sector.

Automotive Logistics Market Trends:
In recent years, a significant rise in automobile production and sales across the globe due to the expanding urban population, inflating consumer purchasing power, and elevating living standards represents the primary factor driving the market growth. Moreover, the rapid growth in international trade owing to an upsurge in e-commerce activities and an increase in the free trade agreements between various countries is supporting the market growth. Besides this, the growing need for spare auto parts for the massive existing automobile fleet in the aftermarket has augmented the demand for automotive logistics. Additionally, there has been a substantial increase in the sales of lightweight, fuel-efficient cars and electric vehicles (EVs) due to stringent emission regulations and favorable tax incentives and subsidies offered by governments to encourage the uptake of EVs. The implementation of such initiatives regarding carbon emissions is also generating the need for upgraded standard aftermarket parts for the existing vehicle fleet. This, coupled with the escalating logistics activities owing to high consumer demand and huge trucking networks, has catalyzed market growth. Furthermore, the leading service providers are utilizing innovative technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, and connected ship, to improve their supply chain management processes and ensure the timely delivery of goods to customers. These technologies assist in reducing labor costs by leveraging predictive analytics on routing, thereby eliminating delays in shipments, which in turn is propelling market growth. Other factors, including the augmenting demand for systematic storage and effortless material handling, increasing adoption of just-in-time (JIT) and world-class quality strategies by key players, improving transportation networks, and the advent of autonomous trucks, are also creating a positive market outlook.
