Automotive Throttle Cables Market Scenario

The Automotive Throttle Cables Market is projected to grow from USD 1500 Mn in 2021 to USD 2500 Mn by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) 6.7% during the forecast period (2023 - 2032)

Automotive throttle cables are essential for the operation of vehicles. These cables allow the driver to control and regulate the acceleration of the vehicle. Throttle cables are plaited metal cables that are used as a mechanical link between the engine’s throttle plate and the gas pedal of the automotive. Automotive throttle cables are of two types, namely, single-core cables and multi-core cables.

The throttle is a mechanism that controls the fluid flow through contraction and expansion in the automotive engine, and the accelerator cable or throttle cable regulates the fluid flow. When the gas pedal is pressed, the throttle cable is dragged and opens the throttle that controls the power transmission of the vehicle. Moreover, throttle cables are also used for hot starting, applying the choke, and for cruise control. Throttle cables are covered by outer sheaths made of materials such as polyethylene, PVC, etc. to protect the plaited metal cable inside. The development and innovations in electro-mobility such as electric vehicles (EVs) have enabled the intense transformation of the global automotive industry which is projected to boost the demand for automotive throttle cables during the next couple of years, thereby creating significant opportunities for the growth of the automotive throttle cables market during the forecast period.

The automotive industry has witnessed an increase in alternative products hitting the market, owing to which the sales of essential automotive components such as automotive throttle cables are likely to rise significantly. The need to enhance functionality via electronic control systems is expected to boost the adoption of control cables, which, in turn, is projected to drive the demand for automotive throttle cables in the coming years. Moreover, the low maintenance cost and ease of use are the factors driving the automotive throttle cables market. However, continuous wear, coupled with the finite life span of these cables, can restrict the growth of the market.

Global Automotive Throttle Cables Market has been segmented by type, coating material, application, and region. Based on type, the global automotive throttle cables market can be bifurcated into single-core cables and multi-core cables.
