Automotive Intake Manifold Market Trends

• 
  

  Rising demand for fuel efficient vehicles is driving the market growth

  
  

Market CAGR will expand during the forecast period as the automotive manifold is one of the vehicle's most vital components. Intake manifold systems facilitate the distribution of fuel and oxygen for internal combustion in automobile engine assemblies. This system, which has existed since the advent of automobiles, is compatible with conventional prototypes and the computerized controlled fuel injection system. The design & construction and the materials employed significantly impact the product's development and contribute to its increased efficacy.

Few manufacturers have filed patent applications for intake manifold prototypes utilizing various materials and designs. Initially, aluminum was preferred, but other materials, such as plastic and magnesium, are gradually replacing it. This significantly reduced engine weight and allowed for high thermal and mechanical resistance. The rising demand for lightweight materials in automotive components drives the market for automotive components, which drives the automotive intake manifolds. Modern engines have extremely stringent specifications. Modern engines are constructed with minimal emissions and high performance. Increasing innovation, research, and development expenditures have met the demand for novel engines. Manufacturers are investing significantly in R&D to design components that contribute to low carbon emissions, are lightweight, and offer superior performance. As a result of stricter emission control regulations imposed by various governments and intensifying competition, the automotive industry must constantly search for methods to improve its products.

Over the past few decades, technological advancements have accelerated the research and development of powertrain systems requiring reduced fuel consumption, improved durability, and increased efficiency. The overall efficacy of an automobile is determined by multiple interdependent systems comprised of numerous components and subcomponents. The type of intake manifold used is one such system that contributes significantly to the vehicle's efficacy. This is driving the Automotive Intake Manifold market revenue.

Automotive Intake Manifold Market Segment Insights

Automotive Intake Manifold Product Type Insights

The Automotive Intake Manifold Market segmentation, based on product type, includes single plane manifolds, dual-plane manifolds, efi manifolds, HI-RAM manifolds, and supercharger intake manifolds. The dual plane manifolds dominated the market, accounting for 30% of market revenue (20.0 billion). The design of dual-plane manifolds permits an even distribution of air and gasoline to the engine's cylinders, thereby enhancing the engine's overall performance. Dual plane manifolds are optimal for low to mid-range RPM engines, making them popular for street-performance vehicles. The design enhances throttle response, and the engine's increased torque makes it simpler to accelerate from a halt or maintain speed at lower RPMs.
