Therefore, the growing adoption of electric vehicles is propelling the growth of the automotive oil pump market.

The automotive oil pump market is set to experience growth fueled by the rising demand for fuel-efficient vehicles. Fuel-efficient vehicles, designed to optimize fuel utilization and reduce consumption, benefit from advanced automotive oil pumps. These pumps play a pivotal role in enhancing fuel efficiency by ensuring optimal oil lubrication and performance. Notably, the International Energy Agency reported substantial growth in the electric car market, with electric vehicle sales surpassing 10 million units in 2022. The increasing preference for fuel-efficient vehicles, reflected in the rising share of electric cars, is a key driver propelling the automotive oil pump market.

The increasing demand for fuel-efficient vehicles is projected to drive the growth of the automotive oil pump market in the future. Fuel-efficient vehicles are specifically designed to optimize fuel usage, resulting in enhanced energy efficiency and reduced fuel consumption. The automotive oil pump plays a vital role in this efficiency, as its design and performance are closely related to the vehicle's overall fuel efficiency. For example, in March 2023, the International Energy Agency, a France-based intergovernmental organization, reported that the electric car market experienced remarkable growth, with sales surpassing 10 million units in 2022. In fact, electric vehicles accounted for 14% of all new car sales that year, a significant increase from about 9% in 2021. Thus, the rising demand for fuel-efficient vehicles is contributing to the growth of the automotive oil pump market.

Technological advancements are a significant trend emerging in the automotive oil pump market. Key players in this sector are concentrating on developing innovative products to maintain their market positions. For example, in January 2022, Toyoda Gosei Co. Ltd., a Japan-based manufacturer specializing in rubber and plastic automotive components, introduced a lightweight oil pump. This new oil pump utilizes precision plastic molding technology - one of its core innovations - to manufacture gears and other components from plastic, resulting in a weight reduction of approximately 30%.

In the dynamic landscape of the automotive oil pump market, major companies are strategically incorporating innovative technologies to fortify their market positions. A notable example of this trend is the adoption of electric oil pumps, also referred to as electric oil transfer pumps or electric lubrication pumps. These cutting-edge devices play a pivotal role in circulating oil or lubricants across diverse automotive and industrial applications. Demonstrating this commitment to innovation, Nidec Power Train Systems Corporation, a prominent Japan-based automotive parts manufacturer, introduced a groundbreaking electric oil pump in October 2023. This electric oil pump is designed to cool the e-axle of the EV Traction Motor System. Distinguished by its integration of a motor and pump manufactured in-house, the pump leverages advanced component production technology to ensure high quality while streamlining mechanical fastening processes and electrical connections. Engineered for enhanced cooling efficiency, this pump directly cools the motor, contributing to achieving a smaller and lighter traction motor in electric vehicles.

In January 2022, Hopkins Manufacturing Corporation, a leading US-based provider of automotive industry components and parts, made a significant move by acquiring Lumax LLC. This strategic acquisition aims to bolster Hopkins' position as an industry leader in fluid management products by incorporating grease guns and related products into its market-leading fluid management business.

An automotive oil pump serves as a mechanical apparatus responsible for circulating oil throughout an engine's moving parts, including bearings, camshafts, and pistons, to minimize friction and prevent wear. Its primary function involves circulating oil for engine lubrication while elevating oil pressure within the lubrication system, thereby generating the necessary pressure to propel oil through the engine's chambers and passages.

The primary discharge types of automotive oil pumps encompass gear pumps, gerotor, vane pumps, and other discharge types such as plunger pumps. Positive displacement pumps with fixed displacement specifically denote pumps where the displacement (measured in gallons per minute) remains unchangeable, except by altering the pump's drive speed. These pumps come in various displacement types, including fixed displacement and variable displacement. They are utilized across diverse vehicle categories such as passenger vehicles, light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, buses and coaches, and off-road vehicles. Furthermore, they cater to varied lubrication systems such as wet sump lubrication and dry sump lubrication. Automotive oil pumps are available through diverse sales channels, including original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket sector.
