These drive systems require transfer case to perform the driving activities. Therefore, increase in penetration of AWD and 4WD vehicles is expected to drive the demand for the transfer case, thus augmenting the market growth.
By Vehicle Type
Hybrid Vehicles segment is projected as the most lucrative segments
Improved efficiency, safety, towing capabilities, and traction under extreme surface or weather conditions
In 4WD and AWD vehicles , transfer case is a crucial component of the automotive driveline. Transfer case is a central drivetrain, which synchronizes the speed and it transfers the power from engine to front and rear axles. It is equipped at the back of the transmission system that splits the engine power as per the requirement of the drive shaft. This transmission of the power to the front and rear axle as per the driving requirement leads to improved dynamic traction and towing capabilities as compared to the FWD or RWD vehicles. Moreover, such distribution of engine power improves the vehicle operational efficiency, as it operate effectively with improved safety in the extreme weather or surface conditions. Thus, abovementioned factors are anticipated to propel the demand for transfer case over the forecast period.
By Type
AWD segment is projected as the most lucrative segments
Contracts and agreements with automotive OEMs
Transfer case is widely and majorly demanded by automotive manufacturers and component manufacturers for automotive production activities. This material procurement witnesses open contracts and agreements between automotive OEMs and manufacturers of transfer case. The commencement of the transfer case solution is expected to be carried out through contracts and agreements between end users and developers of transfer case. These contracts mention a set of requirements that must be met in a certain timeframe. These contracts and agreements are associated with long-term business opportunities with end users. Market participants need to focus on winning the contracts and agreements to gain a competitive advantage and retain long-term business opportunities in the global market.
