Global Automotive Micro Motor Market 2023-2030

Global Automotive Micro Motor Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Power Consumption (Less than 11 V, 12 V – 24 V, 25 V – 48 V, and More than 48 V), by Motor Type (Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC)), by Technology (Brushed Micromotor and Brushless Micromotor), and by End-User (Industrial, Automotive & Aerospace, Healthcare , and Others), Forecast Period (2023-2030)

The global automotive micro motor market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period (2023-2030). The market’s growth is attributed to rising demand and production of EV around the globe. The move to EVs is a significant driver for the automotive micro motor market. Small motors are used in electric automobiles for services such as power windows, windshield wipers, and electric power steering, among others. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in July 2022, vehicles with internal combustion accounted for more than 50.0% of total fuel consumption and 36.3 gigatons of carbon emissions. Whereas the EVs, which do not emit exhaust emissions while in service, are more environment friendly compared to traditional automobiles. Hence, there has been an increase in the production of EVs over the past few years. In 2021, sales of hybrid and other EVs globally totaled 6.8 million, representing a 108% increase from 2020.

Furthermore, EV usage has been growing in recent years. This has increased the need for slow and fast chargers. Slow chargers are generally used for residential and work-related purposes, while fast chargers are used at public charging stations and for long-distance travel. The automotive micro motor market can be impacted by this increased demand for motors in both slow and fast chargers, such as those used for connector mechanisms and cooling systems. EV charging systems can be classified as slow or rapid chargers. Slow chargers use AC power from the grid and deliver 3-4 kW of power to the EV, taking 6-7 hours for a full charge. Fast chargers use DC power from a dedicated charging station and deliver 50 kW of power, charging the EV in less than 0.5 hours. Both AC and DC chargers can cause power quality issues, including voltage distortions and current harmonics.

Segmental Outlook

The global automotive micro motor market is segmented on the power consumption, motor type, technology, and end-user. Based on the power consumption, the market is sub-segmented into less than 11 V, 12 V – 24 V, 25 V – 48 V, and more than 48 V. Based on the motor type, the market is sub-segmented into DC and AC. Based on the technology, the market is sub-segmented into brushed micromotor, and brushless micromotor. Further, on the basis of end-user, the market is sub-segmented into industrial, automotive & aerospace, healthcare, and others. The AC subcategory is expected to capture a significant portion of the market share within the motor type segment. This is attributed to the AC micro motors are gaining traction in various industries owing to their high efficiency and performance. They are used in industrial and commercial applications such as compressors, HVAC systems, and pumps. They are additionally used in advanced automation and control systems for their dependability with fewer moving parts and simpler designs.

The DC Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold a Considerable Share of the Global Automotive Micro Motor Market

Among the motor type, the DC sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the global Automotive Micro Motor market. The segmental growth is attributed to increased power density. The new winding method can probably allow for the development of micromotors with improved power density. Motors with a higher power density are useful in a variety of automotive applications, including power steering, electric vehicle propulsion, and electric window systems. This can contribute to more efficient and compact motor designs, that's essential in the automotive sector. in October 2020, Mirmex Motor Launched Revolutionary DC Micromotor Winding Technology. A new method of manufacturing high-power density electric micromotor windings is now available. This technology has been developed over the past seven years and provides a new approach to winding design and manufacturing.

Regional Outlook

The global automotive micro motor market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). Among these, Europe is anticipated to hold a prominent share of the market around the globe, owing to the substantial presence of the automotive industry in the region.

The Asia- Pacific Region is Expected to Grow at a Significant CAGR in the Global Automotive Micro Motor Market

Among all regions, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR over the forecast period. Regional growth is attributed to the rising micromotors demand across the region. Furthermore, the countries including China is witnessing a significant increase in electric vehicle (EV) sales along with the expanding stock of EVs, which in turn is bolstering the micro motors demand. For several purposes such as power windows, electric power steering, and HVAC systems, EVs rely on a slew of micro motors. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2021, 3.3 million electric cars were sold in China, which was more than the total sales of electric cars globally in 2020, which was 3.0 million. The stock of electric cars in China was 7.8 million in 2021, that was double the stock in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, 82.0% of all new electric car sales in China were Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), and electric cars accounted for 16.0% of domestic car sales in 2021, which was an increase from 5.0% in 2020.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global automotive micro motor market include Brose Fahrzeugteile SE & Co., Constar Micromotor Co., Ltd., DENSO Corp., Hitachi Astemo, Ltd., Johnson Electric Group and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market.
