This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.
The generative design market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.78 billion in 2024 to $4.51 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increased adoption of generative design across industries, growth in demand for lightweight, high-performance structures in various industries, increased focus on sustainability and environmental concerns, and rise in regulatory approvals and standards compliance.
The generative design market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing emphasis on product performance and optimization, expansion into new industries, accelerating digital transformation across industries, and demand for customized and personalized products. Major trends in the forecast period include the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms, adoption of cloud-based generative design platforms, hybrid design approaches, integration of generative design with additive manufacturing technologies, and democratization of generative design tools.
The increase in commercial vehicle sales is expected to drive the growth of the generative design market. Commercial vehicles are motorized vehicles primarily used for transporting goods, passengers, or providing services for business purposes. The rise in commercial vehicle sales is attributed to higher consumer demand, the growth of the electric vehicle (EV) industry, and favorable financing options, all contributing to the need for innovative engineering solutions. Generative design enhances the structural integrity and efficiency of commercial vehicles by reducing weight, fuel consumption, and improving performance and safety. For example, in August 2024, the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported growth in sales of new light-duty vehicles (LDVs) with alternative fuel types. According to Wards Intelligence, sales of LDVs powered by alternative fuels increased from 17.8% of total LDV sales in Q1 2024 to 18.7% in Q2. Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) sales surged by 30.7% year-over-year, making up 8.6% of the light-duty market in Q1 and 9.6% in Q2. Sales of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles saw a slight rise, from 1.7% to 2% of the total market. Therefore, the increase in commercial vehicle sales is driving the growth of the generative design market.
Prominent players in the generative design market are intensifying their efforts to develop cutting-edge technological solutions, such as incorporating generative AI features, to gain a competitive advantage.
