Automotive Fascia Market Analysis
The Automotive Fascia Market size is estimated at USD 21.64 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 28.85 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.65% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
Increasing vehicle sales, consumers' growing preference for the advanced look of vehicles, and rising demand for lightweight vehicle models serve as major determinants for the growth of the automotive fascia market across the globe. For instance, sales of new passenger cars recorded a growth of 1.9% between 2021 and 2022 across the world. Further, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) across the world are eyeing to develop lightweight materials for designing fascia since the reduction in vehicle weight directly corresponds to a reduction in fuel consumption.
The development and modification of vehicles to offer consumers attractive-looking cars is further boosting the demand for automotive fascia, which helps in enhancing the aesthetics of a vehicle. Coupled with that, increasing luxury vehicle sales across various regions act as a catalyst for the rising demand for sustainable and advanced automotive fascia products. For instance,
Luxury vehicle sales in India witnessed a surge of 38% in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in the previous year. Approximately 20,000 luxury vehicles were sold between January and June 2023, which is estimated to cross the 40,000 mark by the end of the year.
In January 2023, Rolls Royce reported sales of 6,201 units of its luxury models across the world in 2022, showcasing an 8% growth Y-o-Y between 2021 and 2022, with the Middle East being its strongest market.
Coupled with that, aggressive government policy to regulate vehicle emissions and safety standards is positively impacting the surging growth of the automotive fascia market. For instance, The Euro 6 emission standard sets a legal requirement for a car manufacturer to average CO2 emissions below 98g/km, which is leading to the development of innovative materials utilized in a vehicle. Policies such as this also contribute to the development of lightweight parts by automotive manufacturers, which in turn assists in weight reduction and complying with the government's safety standards of vehicles, thereby positively impacting the automotive fascia market.
The high cost of installation and replacement is a major deterrent to the growth of the market. There exists a substantial cost requirement for replacing the fascia once damaged owing to the improved and advanced plastic used for the manufacturing of these products. Therefore, replacing this component of the vehicle further increases the vehicle's operating cost, which negatively impacts the growth of the market.
Rising demand for new-age vehicles such as autonomous vehicles and electric vehicles, increasing sales of used cars, and the growing demand for high-end cars attributed to the growth in disposable income are expected to fuel the growth of the automotive fascia market in the coming years.
