This Automotive Air Suspension market report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market’s characteristics, size, and growth, including segmentation, regional and country-level breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends, and strategies. It also tracks historical and forecasted market growth across various geographies.
The automotive air suspension market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.06 billion in 2024 to $7.57 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising consumer demand for vehicle comfort and safety, an increase in the number of miles driven, a rise in demand for heavy commercial vehicles, an increase in demand for premium and luxury vehicles, and a lower interest rate.
The automotive air suspension market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.94 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to favorable government policies and incentives, a surge in preference for electronically controlled air suspension systems, growing research and development abilities, rising production of vehicles, and increasing off-road recreational activities. Major trends in the forecast period include electronically controlled air suspension, lightweight air suspension components, modular air suspension designs, a higher adoption rate for technologically advanced systems, and regenerative air suspension.
The growing demand for commercial vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the automotive air suspension market in the coming years. Commercial vehicles, which are used for transporting goods or passengers for business purposes, are in demand due to various factors such as economic activity and evolving industry needs, leading to sustained growth in the commercial vehicle sector. Automotive air suspension systems improve vehicle functionality, comfort, safety, and durability, making them ideal for a wide range of applications, from urban delivery fleets to heavy-duty transport and specialized services. For example, in May 2023, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, a Belgium-based lobbying and standards group for the automobile industry, reported that global motor vehicle production reached 85.4 million units in 2022, reflecting a 5.7% increase from 2021. This rising demand for commercial vehicles is fueling the growth of the automotive air suspension market.
Leading firms in the automotive air suspension sector are actively innovating, introducing products such as Zero Maintenance Damping Ride Technology (ZMDR). This cutting-edge suspension system promises optimal ride comfort, vehicle stability, and load-carrying capacity without the need for regular maintenance. In July 2023, Hendrickson unveiled its ROADMAAX Z, a lightweight rear air suspension system with a 46,000 lb. capacity and integrated Zero Maintenance Damping (ZMD) riding technology. By integrating damping functions directly into the air springs and eliminating conventional shock absorbers, ZMD technology ensures consistent, smooth ride quality over the air springs' lifespan. This innovation not only reduces downtime and maintenance costs but also enhances performance, especially in rigorous operational environments such as lift axles and off-highway applications up to 25%.
In August 2022, Cummins Inc., a US-based manufacturer specializing in diesel engines for commercial trucks, completed the acquisition of Meritor Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition aims to enhance Cummins' leadership in integrated powertrain solutions, accelerate the development of decarbonized powertrain technologies, especially in electrification, and leverage Cummins' global presence to expand Meritor's core axle and brake businesses. Meritor Inc., also based in the US, is recognized for its production of automotive parts for commercial vehicles and industrial markets, including suspension solutions.

Automotive air suspension operates through an electric or engine-driven air pump or compressor, which directs air into flexible bellows typically crafted from textile-reinforced rubber. These systems enable variable ride height and adjustable firmness, enhancing both vehicle performance and comfort.
There are two primary control types for automotive air suspensions electronically controlled and non-electrically controlled systems. Electronically controlled systems manage suspension components such as air springs or airbags through advanced electronic mechanisms. These systems incorporate components such as air springs, shock absorbers, compressors, electronic control units, air reservoirs, height and pressure sensors, remote controls, and solenoid valves. They cater to a wide range of vehicle types including passenger vehicles, light and heavy commercial vehicles, buses, and coaches, distributed through original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket channels.
