General Aviation Engines Market Analysis

The General Aviation Engines Market is expected to register a CAGR of 0.69% during the forecast period.

  • The market of general aviation engines was highly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic due to a downturn in the aviation industry, which resulted in reduced deliveries of general aviation engines in 2020 and 2021. However, the large-scale backlog of aircraft original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the general aviation sector is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
  • The general aviation market experienced steady growth in 2022 compared to 2021. The reason for this growth was the increase in deliveries of business jets and piston-engine aircraft. The global rotorcraft fleet also experienced a growth of over 8.5% in 2022. The necessity to reduce aviation emissions is fueling the development of fuel-efficient and lightweight engines. 
  • One such technology is hybrid engines for aircraft that will witness growth during the forecast period. Prominent players such as Safran and Rolls Royce have already unveiled their hybrid engine prototypes and are significantly investing in this technology. Such advancements will support the growth of the market during the forecast period.

General Aviation Engines Industry Overview

The general aviation engines market is moderately consolidated, with major players such as Rolls-Royce plc, Safran SA, The General Electric Company, and Pratt and Whitney (Raytheon Technologies Corporation) accounting for a major share of the market. The market players generate revenues mainly through long-term contracts for supplying engines to specific aircraft models from aircraft manufacturers.

The launch of new general aviation aircraft models will provide opportunities for engine manufacturers to enhance their market share globally. In recent times, when aviation emission norms have become stringent, aircraft manufacturing companies are looking for low-emission and highly fuel-efficient engines, and this has led to heavy investment in research, design, and development by aviation engine manufacturers to meet the needs of customers.
