Motor Grader Market Size, Share and Industry Analysis By Type [Rigid Frame & Articulated Frame], By Capacity [Small Motor Graders (80-150 HP), Medium Motor Graders (150-300 HP) & Large Motor Graders (Above 300 HP)], By Application [Construction, Mining, Forestry & Agriculture and Others] and Regional Forecast, 2032

The global motor grader market size was valued at USD 3,799.0 million in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 8,140.8 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 10.7% during the forecast period. The global motor grader market is estimated to grow, with the increasing need for better-quality of shallow finish and for speeding up the grading process, unlike the rough grading process that is performed by other construction vehicles and heavy equipment, such as bulldozers and scrapers.

The major players catering to the market are investing in research & development activities for upgrading graders, to provide better steering & draft control in tricky underfoot conditions such as mud, snow & sand.

A shift in the market has been observed in the market since the launch of the motor grader because earlier grading was done by dozers and other heavy equipment machinery, as it provides specialized grading that is not restricted to one surface. Furthermore, an additional advantage of graders is that it can be operated with multiple attachments for numerous applications in construction & mining industry such as pavement of roads, certain soil foundation for buildings & underground mining.

Motor graders are being sold at their capacity, i.e., whether it is a small motor grader, medium motor grader or large motor grader. The medium motor grader is expected to drive the market as it provides better handling with the weight being the less, efficient power supply and precise control over the blades.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

"Increasing government investment in infrastructure favor the growth of the Asia Pacific, and Europe is predicted to have a substantial growth"

Asia Pacific was valued at USD 1,011.2 Million in 2018 and is anticipated to emerge as a dominant region in the global market during the forecast period. Growth perceived in the region is likely to be driven by infrastructure development & increasing capital investments by government. Similarly, China is spending its capital more in public infrastructure and renewable energy, along with residential construction projects, which is expected to boost the motor grader market in the region.

Furthermore, major infrastructure projects such as ongoing Jubail II industrial city expansion in Saudi Arabia whose, second phase which begun in the year 2014, is expected to conclude by 2024 costing around USD 11 Billion which will increase the sales of the graders in the region.

Europe generated a revenue of USD 973.2 Million in 2018 and is expected to show a CAGR of 5.4%. The growth is owed to the increasing demand for new infrastructural projects, improving employment level, increasing inclination towards effective, productive & environment-friendly technologies, etc. Also, as Germany is called the home to Europe’s best-performing machine and equipment sector it has never-ending demand for construction projects, Europe is expected to have a significant opportunity to grow over the forecast period.
