The global automotive lubricant market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.72% during the forecast period.
Automotive lubricants are responsible for providing efficient lubrication for automotive parts, which reduces friction in vehicles. This lubrication also serves many secondary functions, such as cleaning and cooling down engine parts by preventing the build-up of rust and corrosion. These automotive lubricants are known to be solid, oil-based, plastic, or a combination of all three. Oil and grease are the most common lubricants.
The major factor driving the market of automotive lubricants is technological advancements, which are leading towards the development of new lubricants that are efficient and capable of withstanding high temperatures and higher pressures, propelling market growth. One of the imperative advancements in lubricant technology is its ability to withstand higher temperatures and pressure. This enables the effective use of lubricants in high-performance applications where the conventional lubricants are failing or require frequent replacement.
Germany is expected to hold a prominent share in the automobile manufacturing industry in the European region as it hosts major car-making brands such as Audi, BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, etc. With such major hosts in car making, the country and region have been investing exceedingly in research and development activities, further resulting in the increasing automotive production in the country. According to the Germany Trade and Invest (GTAI), German automobile manufacturers began producing over 15.6 million vehicles in 2021. This made Germany the European car production leader, with the production of 3.1 million passenger cars and 351,000 commercial vehicles, which were further manufactured in the German plant.
Various factors are driving the automotive lubricant market growth in the APAC region, such as the increasing population resulting in the rising production and sales of vehicles, particularly passenger vehicles.
