Electric Steering Market Trends

• 
  

  The growth of electric power steering is driving the market growth

  
  

The growth of electric power steering drives Market CAGR for electric steering. EPS systems are more energy-efficient, provide better feedback to drivers, and are more responsive, leading to improved handling and safety. In addition, EPS systems require less maintenance, resulting in lower consumer costs over the vehicle's lifetime. As a result, the demand for EPS systems is expected to grow, especially in developing markets such as Japan, China, and India, where the demand for affordable and fuel-efficient vehicles is rising.

Additionally, the increasing adoption of Steer-by-wire (SBW) systems is a type of electric steering that eliminates the contact between the steering wheel and the car's wheels. Instead, SBW systems use electronic signals to control the steering, allowing greater vehicle design flexibility and reducing weight and complexity. SBW systems also offer improved safety features such as automatic collision avoidance and switching between left and right-hand drives without mechanical modifications. While SBW systems are currently only used in high-end luxury vehicles, their adoption is expected to rise in the expected future as the technology becomes more affordable.

Autonomous driving technology is rapidly advancing, and electric steering systems are critical in enabling self-driving cars. Electric steering systems are essential in controlling the vehicle's direction, and the increased accuracy and responsiveness of electric steering systems make them the preferred choice for autonomous vehicles. In addition, electric steering systems can be integrated with other autonomous driving technologies, such as lane departure warning systems and adaptive cruise control. As the demand for autonomous driving technology increases, the demand for electric steering systems is also expected to grow. For instance, the growth of EPS and SBW systems and advancements in autonomous driving technology are among the key trends shaping the electric steering market. We expect to see further developments in electric steering systems to improve vehicle performance, safety, and reliability, driving the Electric Steering market revenue.

Electric Steering Industry Developments

Titan, a manufacturer and developer of electric vehicle steering systems based in the United Kingdom, unveiled a novel steer-by-wire system in September 2023. A diverse array of low-volume vehicles, including light commercial vehicles, tractors, and supercars, are capable of utilizing the system. Titan has expanded its range of power steering systems to include the steer-by-wire system, in addition to the manual, electrified (EPAS), and hydraulic alternatives. It is stated that the adaptable, finely-tuned steering system "satisfies the precise requirements of Titan's clients, from EV startups to established OEMs." The electric motor for Titan's brand-new system is an entirely new component that is produced in-house alongside the entire steering system. Additionally, a custom electronic control system biased to 48 V is present. Optimising steering systems for 'challenging' packaging requirements is possible. It is said that the creation of custom prototypes requires days as opposed to months. Single units or monthly volumes of up to one hundred units may be produced. October 2022: Nexteer Automotive has introduced the Modular Column-Assist EPS System (mCEPS), an addition to its Electric Power Steering (EPS) portfolio. The mCEPS system, which is available in Standard, Enhanced, and Pro models, satisfies a variety of load capacities and additional specifications. mCEPS Pro, for instance, provides support for SAE Levels 2 through 5 of automated driving, in addition to over-the-air (OTA) updates and cyber security. Each of the three mCEPS models is built upon the electrical and software architecture of AUTOSAR Release 4.0. Furthermore, Nexteer's high-performance torque and rotation angle sensors, which are tailor-made and developed in-house, offer exceptional noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) performance as well as precise and fluid steering feel. This enhances the drivers' sense of connection with the road. By utilizing an expandable electronic control system and a platform design, mCEPS enables us to satisfy the demands of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) for a sophisticated, individualized, and economical steering system that is adaptable to packaging and other customer specifications.
