The automotive chassis dynamometer market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $0.2 billion in 2023 to $0.21 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The growth observed in the historic period can be ascribed to factors such as heightened urbanization and congestion in cities, growing consumer awareness, increased disposable income, and robust economic growth in emerging markets.

The automotive chassis dynamometer market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.24 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the escalating population density, the growing adoption of automation and digitalization in rolling stock, the integration of sustainable energy, and the increased connectivity and IoT integration. Notable trends expected in the forecast period include the adoption of all-wheel drive (AWD) dynamometer testing, integration with vehicle dynamics control systems, testing of electric and hybrid powertrains, the development of portable and modular dynamometer designs, and an increased emphasis on emissions testing.

The anticipated surge in automobile production is poised to propel growth within the automotive chassis dynamometer sector during the projected period. These dynamometers, pivotal in measuring torque and diagnosing suspension, environmental, emission, and overall vehicle issues, are expected to witness heightened demand due to the escalating manufacturing of automobiles. Notably, the 2021 car production in India rose to 30.82 lakh units from the previous year's 24.33 lakh units, signifying a substantial upswing in automotive manufacture and consequently, an increased need for this testing equipment.

The burgeoning demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is a significant driving force behind the expansion of the automotive chassis dynamometer market. These vehicles, powered by electric motors utilizing stored electrical energy, heavily rely on chassis dynamometers for comprehensive testing and development. These dynamometers enable the evaluation of vital performance parameters such as electric motor efficiency, regenerative braking, battery management, and overall vehicle dynamics, fostering the optimization of EV design and functionality. Citing a February 2023 article by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, projections suggest that EV sales in the United States are expected to constitute 40% of total passenger car sales by 2030, potentially surpassing 50% in more optimistic scenarios, thereby fueling the demand for automotive chassis dynamometers.

A prominent trend gaining traction within the automotive chassis dynamometer realm is the rise of mobile and portable variants. These portable dynamometers afford users the ability to conduct environmental testing under real-world conditions, offering a cost-effective alternative to sophisticated in-house testing facilities. For instance, in 2021, Vtechdyno, a UK-based manufacturer, introduced the TractionBoost roller technology, boasting up to double the grip compared to previous iterations. This enhancement, including advanced knurling and a redesigned Gates toothed belt, caters to the testing needs of electric and high-performance cars, crucially accommodating vehicles with substantial torque, such as electric cars.

Leading players within the automotive chassis dynamometer market are actively introducing innovative products to fortify their market standing. Horiba Ltd., a Japan-based precision instrument manufacturer, unveiled the VULCAN 4x4 Compact in July 2022, leveraging their patented synchronous motor technology. This new chassis dynamometer is characterized by its adaptable nature, enabling an easy and cost-effective upgrade of existing facilities. Its design facilitates seamless integration into current pits, particularly those transitioning to electric vehicles, boasting enhanced energy efficiency levels of up to 97%. The VULCAN 4x4 Compact's versatility extends to conducting NVH tests on chassis dynamometers for LDVs and two-wheelers, reaching speeds of up to 350 km/h. Additionally, it complements HORIBA's Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) solutions, providing a comprehensive testing platform for evolving automotive technologies.

In August 2022, RoadOne, Inc., a prominent USA-based entity specializing in single-source intermodal, distribution, and logistics services, finalized the acquisition of R&A Trucking Company. This strategic move, executed for an undisclosed sum, forms part of RoadOne's strategic expansion initiative to bolster its national presence. The acquisition of R&A Trucking Company, also based in the USA and engaged in logistics and trucking services, is poised to enhance RoadOne's suite of services offered to its cargo-owning supply chain customers. The acquisition aligns with RoadOne's overarching goal of broadening its reach and augmenting its service portfolio within the logistics and transportation domain.
