Global Commercial Vehicles Lubricants - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts 2015 - 2026

The Global Commercial Vehicles Lubricants Market size is estimated at 7.96 Billion Liters in 2024, and is expected to reach 8.43 Billion Liters by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 2.91% during the forecast period (2024-2026).

Key Highlights

• Largest Segment by Product Type - Engine Oils : Since it has high-temperature and high-pressure uses, engine oil is the most popular product type in the CV sector, with large volume needs and shorter drain intervals.
• Fastest Segment by Product Type - Transmission & Gear Oils : Transmission oil consumption is predicted to be the highest among all product categories in the global CV sector, with the use of LCVs and trucks expected to rise.
• Largest Regional Market - Asia-Pacific : Asia-Pacific is home to countries with large vehicle fleets like China, India, and Japan. As a result, the lubricant consumption by this sector was highest in Asia-Pacific.
• Fastest Growing Regional Market - Asia-Pacific : The low penetration of synthetic lubricants and expected high growth rates of the truck fleet in countries like India are likely to drive lubricant consumption in APAC.
