Cylinder Deactivation System Global Market Report 2024

A cylinder deactivation system is a technology implemented in internal combustion engines to enhance fuel efficiency and minimize emissions. It operates by temporarily disabling specific engine cylinders under light-load conditions, such as highway cruising or coasting, while maintaining full power capability when needed.

The main components of a cylinder deactivation system include the valve solenoid, engine control unit (ECU), and electronic throttle control. The valve solenoid functions as an electromechanical device that controls the flow of fluids or gases by opening or closing valves. These systems employ various actuation methods, including overhead camshaft and pushrod designs. They are utilized across different vehicle types such as passenger cars and light commercial vehicles to optimize engine efficiency and performance.

The cylinder deactivation system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.5 billion in 2023 to $3.69 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, increased demand for downsized engines, rising trends in hybridization, widespread adoption by automakers, growing utilization of pushrod design methods, and heightened demand for improved fuel efficiency.

The cylinder deactivation system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.61 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, expanding adoption of cylinder deactivation systems (CDS), growing consumer preference for fuel-efficient vehicles, increasing vehicle ownership rates, rising global vehicle production, and higher sales of high-volume engine models. Key trends anticipated in this period include the development and adoption of new CDS technologies, integration with hybrid powertrain systems, advancements in overhead camshaft designs, improvements in valve solenoid technology, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning into engine management systems.

The cylinder deactivation system market is expected to experience growth driven by increasing vehicle production. Vehicle production involves a complex and interconnected process that spans multiple industries and technologies, demanding precise coordination to ensure the manufacturing of reliable and safe vehicles. The demand for vehicles is fueled by factors such as economic expansion, urbanization, globalization, infrastructure development, and cultural influences. Cylinder deactivation systems are integrated into vehicle production to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. These systems enable manufacturers to develop engines that deliver improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions, while still maintaining power and performance when necessary. For example, in May 2023, the Global Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (ACEA) reported a global production of approximately 85.4 million vehicles, marking a 3% increase compared to the previous year. This highlights how rising vehicle production is driving the cylinder deactivation system market forward.

Leading companies in the cylinder deactivation system market are focusing on innovation, particularly in the development of systems for heavy-duty diesel engines. These advanced technologies aim to enhance fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and optimize engine performance, especially under low-load operating conditions. For instance, Jacobs Vehicle Systems (JVS), a US-based manufacturer, introduced cylinder deactivation technology for heavy-duty diesel trucks in November 2022. This technology allows engines to operate with full V8 or V6 power at low speeds, automatically deactivating cylinders as the vehicle accelerates and powertrain load decreases. This approach helps maintain optimal exhaust temperatures and efficiency in aftertreatment systems, crucial for meeting stringent emissions standards.

In February 2022, Cummins Inc., a prominent US-based engine manufacturer, acquired Jacobs Vehicle Systems (JVS) to strengthen its capabilities in advanced engine platforms and support its strategy towards achieving zero emissions. Jacobs Vehicle Systems (JVS) specializes in manufacturing cylinder deactivation systems, aligning with Cummins' commitment to innovation and sustainability in the automotive industry.
