Commercial Automotive Lubricants Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Engine Oil, Gear Oil, Transmission Fluids, Brake fluids, Coolants, Grease, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Commercial automotive lubricants are often used to reduce friction and allow a vehicle to operate smoothly. These lubricants perform significant roles such as regulating friction, engine wear, preventing the engine from rusting, cooling the pistons, and shielding the engine oil that is contained in the sump from combustion gases. The key role and most critical feature of commercial automotive lubricants is to reduce lubricant friction and provide wear safety, which increases machine running times and thus protects the raw material. There are various type of lubricants such as engine oil, manual transmission fluid, and automatic transmission fluid, and others. Engine oils are used within engine for use. Engine oils are primarily used in gearboxes for automobiles: manual, automatic etc. Hydraulic oil is used in hydraulic machinery to transfer the hydrostatic strength.

Strong development in the automotive sector, power and engineering sectors is likely to create opportunities for commercial automotive lubricants. Consumers are shifting towards improving the quality of automotive in the automotive sector and cooperating with original equipment manufacturers using higher grade lubricants; this benefits multi-grade lubricants with strong market knowledge and broad distribution. Engine oil is expected to expand rapidly due to demand from small and medium-sized enterprises for goods carriers. The existence of aging vehicle fleet increases the reach of maintenance and thus drives the demand for commercial automotive lubricants. The commercial vehicle is expected to be driven by global industry developments such as the introduction of telematics systems, the need for unique transport solutions by end users and the growing growth of fleet sharing which in turn will boost the market.

Key Market Driver -

Growing demand automotive industry is likley to drive the market.

Key Market Restraint -

Growth of electric vehicles is restraining the growth of the commercial automotive lubricants.

Strict environmental regulations for carbon emissions have forced automotive manufacturers to turn to electric vehicles (EVs), which is likely to hinder the growth of commercial automotive lubricants. In electric vehicle there is absence of the IC engine thus battery electric vehicles remove the need for engine oil. The rising number of hybrid vehicles would almost reduce the demand for lubricants per vehicle. This factor, combined with increasing battery parity, would reduce the global demand for commercial automotive lubricants.
