Automotive Transmission Market Size, Share & Forecast 2032

Global Automotive Transmission Market is projected to witness a CAGR of 6.06% during the forecast period 2025-2032, growing from USD 64.07 billion in 2024 to USD 102.58 billion in 2032. The growth of the automotive transmission market is influenced by several key factors, including technological advancements, developments, or innovations, such as dual-clutch transmissions (DCTs) and continuously variable transmissions (CVTs). Vehicles are moving towards lower gear shift times and better power management, essential in modern-day electric and hybrid vehicles that need efficient power distribution. More consumers demand fuel-efficient vehicles featuring optimized engine performance and reduced fuel consumption due to rising fuel prices and strict emission regulations, driving the global automotive transmission market demand in the forecast period. Additionally, the growth of electric vehicles provides a different need for electrified transmission systems; an electric vehicle usually features innovative technologies, including single-speed transmissions, that enhance efficiency. Increased production rates of vehicles within emerging economies are related to the surge in demand for various types of transmission systems. Changing consumer preferences also lead to a demand for smoother driving experiences, driving the demand for advanced transmission technologies as they improve driving dynamics. Lastly, government regulations and incentives prompting the adoption of fuel-efficient and low-emission vehicles will directly relate to increased demand for advanced transmission systems that comply with this standard. Overall, the market is expected to grow robustly as manufacturers prepare for the changes in consumer standards in terms of demand and regulatory frameworks.
For instance, in October 2022, Magna International Inc. and STELLANTIS N.V. developed a 48-volt hybrid dual-clutch transmission for the Jeep Renegade and Compass e-Hybrid, Fiat 500 X, and Tipo. This 7-speed transmission delivers up to 320 Nm of torque and employs torque-split technology for optimized efficiency between the combustion engine and the e-motor.
<h2>Rise of Electric Vehicles is Expanding the Global Market Scope</h2>
Electric vehicles are predominantly changing the dynamics in the automotive transmission market scope, extending their benefits through the increase in the usage of electric vehicles, environmental concerns, and the recent governmental regulatory policies that act towards minimizing emissions. Various governments around the world are pushing for cleaner air, resulting in increased demand for electric vehicles, which would also drive the growth of the electric vehicle transmission market. This market can be segmented based on single-speed or multispeed types of transmissions. Thus far, single-speed systems dominate sales because they are high-performance and low-cost. However, multispeed transmissions will come into the market as consumers opt for more performance-oriented electrified vehicles; they will improve efficiency at higher-speed conditions. Moreover, innovations around transmission technologies are being introduced to cater to emerging requirements in electric propulsion. For instance, electrified e-transmissions for commercial vehicles are being emphasized by companies towards the provision of high efficiency, carbon emission, and high performance. Generally, the increased demand for electric vehicles leads to demand for the relevant transmission technologies and, thus, the future of the whole automotive industry.
For instance, in July 2024, STELLANTIS N.V. extended the benchmark hybrid powertrain to more nameplates to satisfy European customer demand. The company will offer Innovative electrified dual-clutch transmissions (eDCT) with supreme performance as an affordable hybridization technology.
<h2>Technological Advancements Propel the&nbsp;Global Market&nbsp;Growth</h2>
Rapid technological advancement is propelling unprecedented growth for the global automotive transmission market. From a broad array of innovations contributing to improved performance, efficiency, and smooth driving experiences, the most impactful development is the integration of advanced transmission technologies such as continuously variable transmissions (CVTs), dual-clutch transmissions (DCTs), and automated manual transmissions (AMTs). In addition, with growing awareness of environmental issues and fuel economy standards, these technologies fulfill the interests of consumers and car makers. CVTs provide constant acceleration without delaying changes in shifting gears. Particularly beneficial in urban areas, such settings remove the delays from shifting. Most recently introduced modern transmission control units have high-precision digital intelligence and can detect the optimal operating point of the engine for its performance making quicker shifts and smoother gear changes possible, to enhance performance and driver satisfaction.&nbsp; The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning also boosts the market; these technologies could analyze real-time data to anticipate future maintenance and refine gear shifts, thereby improving fuel efficiency and delivering a more responsive driving experience. Overall, these technological advancements are reshaping the automotive transmission landscape, creating new opportunities for growth in the market as manufacturers strive to meet evolving consumer preferences and regulatory demands.
For instance, in October 2024, JATCO Ltd newly developed a performance-restoring additive for continuously variable transmission (CVT) fluid. This newly developed additive is designed to be added to the CVT fluid of existing CVTs and hybrid electric vehicles. Now, the shock when engaging/disengaging the wet clutch can be reduced, and the durability of the wet clutch can be restored to a level equivalent to that of a full CVT fluid change.
Dominance of Passenger Cars in Global&nbsp;Market
The dominance of passenger cars in the global automotive transmission market is due to continuous advancements in transmission technologies, such as continuously variable transmissions (CVTs), dual-clutch transmissions (DCTs), and automatic transmissions, which are increasingly being integrated into passenger vehicles. These technologies enhance fuel efficiency, performance, and driver comfort, increasing their popularity. Automatic transmissions are favored for their ease of use and improved performance, which appeals to a broad range of consumers; as economic conditions improve, more consumers opt for personal vehicles. Manufacturers are also focusing on enhancing their offerings for passenger cars by integrating advanced transmission technologies to meet consumer demands for performance and efficiency.
For instance, in August 2024, Hero MotoCorp Limited was in talks with a German company for transmission systems joint venture to achieve vertical integration in manufacturing transmission systems. Also, it has signed a term sheet for another collaboration, also with a German firm, for a licensing agreement to manufacture dual-clutch transmissions for passenger cars.
<h2>Asia-Pacific Dominates&nbsp;Global Automotive Transmission Market&nbsp;Share</h2>
Asia-Pacific dominates the global automotive transmission market due to the presence of leading automobile manufacturers and suppliers in countries such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea. Being the major producers of vehicles, they also play a crucial role in the supply chain for automotive components worldwide. Growing passenger and commercial vehicles across emerging countries also drive the demand for automotive transmission. An increase in urbanization and logistics operations means that better transmission systems will be needed to operate in the future. Moreover, stringent government regulations on emissions and fuel consumption push manufacturers to adopt advanced transmission technologies. This regulatory environment encourages Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) development and other similar efficient systems that consume lower fuel and produce less CO2 without compromising vehicle performance. The trend is also quite notable concerning the rising number of electric vehicle (EV) adopters, where more vehicles would require special transmission systems for electric power trains. All these effects further drive the importance of Asia-Pacific in the global automotive landscape, driven by robust demand, technological advancements, and regulatory support.
For instance, in December 2023, ZF Friedrichshafen AG expanded the local production of transmissions and axles in Coimbatore, India. The expansion includes a new plant catering to domestic and selected export automotive transmission markets.
