Electric Motors in Automotive Applications
Actuals and Forecast
The worldwide revenue for electric motors in automotive applications is expected to increase
to over $30 billion in 2019, up from $26 billion in 2014. In 2014, approximately 69.2% of
electric motors in automotive applications were DC brushed and 13.8% were DC brushless.
Technological innovations in the automotive industry have created momentum to drive the
growth of the electric motor market, especially DC brushless motors which are predicted to
outperform market growth for all other motor types by double. The Asia Pacific region is
forecast to be the fastest-growing region for electric motors used in automotive applications.
The market is spearheaded by growth in India and China. Powertrain and chassis generated the
highest revenue and were accounted for 53% of market revenues in 2014. Market demand for
adaptive headlights and door mirrors is increasing rapidly and presents a positive growth
opportunity for motor manufacturers supplying motors for those applications.
In this report, a detailed analysis and further breakdown are provided in geographic region and
power rating for each motor type. The market research will also be presented for each product
type by power rating for ther 2014 base year.
