Electric Power Steering (EPS) Sensor Market Research, 2030
The global electric power steering (eps) sensor industry was valued at $14.64 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $26.58 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7% from 2022 to 2030. Electric power steering sensors commands and assists the steering process with support of an intelligence electric motor. The control unit inside the EPS calculates the ideal steering support based upon the steering signal from torque sensors and delivers the information to the electric motor to offer the required assistance. Hydraulic power steering which was widely used before EPS, had many components such as pump, hoses, fluid, drive belt, and pulley to operate. These components needed space and also increased the weight of the vehicle; however, the EPS does not have these thus making the electric steering systems lighter & smaller than hydraulic systems. Due to these factors, EPS is widely used in new generation vehicles and it will contribute to the Electric Power Steering (EPS) Sensor Market Size.
Increasing amount of vehicle manufacturing and rising number of accidents have created a need to increase adoption of EPS sensors in vehicles thus boosting Electric Power Steering (EPS) Sensor Market Share. With rising demand in safety of vehicles, EPS suits the best as they assist to enhance the driving experience. According to the vehicle sales data by International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, an international trade association whose members are 39 national automotive industry trade associations, there has been a rise in vehicle sales by 4.96% in 2021, as compared to 78 million in 2020. Thus, an increase in the sales of vehicles will eventually add to the Electric Power Steering (EPS) Sensor Market Size.
However, with adoption of electric power steering driver may lack the driving experience as the steering feels extremely light to handle. Hydraulic steering systems require more muscle to move the vehicle and offers the driver more stability on high speeds. Thus, driving enthusiast feel the lack of steering feel and driving experience on EPS. These factors are anticipated to propel the electric power steering (EPS) sensor market growth.
Rising penetration of electric power steering systems in the passenger and commercial vehicles along with increasing demand for electric and automatic vehicles is anticipated to drive revenue growth of the market in the predicted years. The EPS sensors are more reliable than the hydraulic steering systems in terms of safety, fuel efficacy, and adaptability to adjustable driving modes. Moreover, in March 2022, Yamaha Motor Co., ltd, a Japanese motorcycle manufacturer, announced the use of EPS sensors in Yamaha YZ450FM and YZ250F racing motorcycles and tested them to develop and use in production motorcycles. The use of EPS will give the rider stability and improved agility and reduce fatigue. Thus, these factors will increase the Electric Power Steering (EPS) Sensor Market Share in the future.
