Wheel Speed Sensor Market Trends




  • Increase in traffic on the roads is driving the market growth




Market CAGR for wheel speed sensor is being driven by the increase in traffic on the roads. The wheel speed and rotational direction of an automobile are detected by an automotive wheel speed sensor (WSS), also called a vehicle speed sensor (VSS). It uses electrical impulses to offer input to many automobile systems, such as the electronic stability control (ESC) and anti-lock brake system (ABS). It is mounted directly above the pulse wheel, which is attached to either the driveshaft or the wheel hub. It assists in maintaining appropriate driving dynamics, consuming less fuel, and emitting less greenhouse gases.


Additionally, over the world, passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), and heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs) all use automotive WSSs extensively nowadays. One of the main elements fostering a favorable market outlook is the growing use of electric cars (EVs), which coincides with tremendous expansion in the automotive industry. Additionally, more and more advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are being used to maximize road safety as a result of the increased obstacles that drivers face as a result of increasing traffic.


Wheel speed is determined by automotive WSS, which is used in ADAS systems such motor control units (MCU), traction control systems (TCS), adaptive cruise control (ACC), and ABS. Furthermore, the seamless integration of various electrical systems guarantees the car's faultless operation and enhances traffic safety. In addition, the integration of ABS in automobiles is required by the governments of several nations, which is encouraging the market's expansion. The growth of the automobile industry is expected to be aided by additional factors such the rising sales of passenger cars worldwide and advancements in materials, mechanics, engines and fuels, aerodynamics, autonomous control, and performance.


For instance, the Indian Ministry of Road and Transport declared in September 2018 that new cars must include automatic emergency braking (AEB) and electronic stability control (ESC). Moreover, the growing consumer electronics manufacturing industry in developing countries like China, India, and Japan is expected to drive market expansion. Thus, result in driving the Wheel Speed Sensor market revenue.
