Automatic Tire Inflation System (ATIS) Market - By Type (Central Tire Inflation, Continuous Tire Inflation), By Application (Passenger Vehicles, Commercial Vehicles [Light-duty Vehicles, Heavy-duty Vehicles]), By Component, By Sales Channel, Forecast 2023 - 2032

Automatic Tire Inflation System Market Size

Automatic Tire Inflation System Market size was valued at USD 0.85 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of over 10% between 2023 and 2032. The increasing demand for heavy-duty vehicles is driving the expansion of the market.
 

According to International Energy Agency, in 2022, the global electric bus and medium- to heavy-duty truck sales surged with China leading the market. China's dominance was notable, accounting for around 80% of global electric bus sales and 85% of electric medium- to heavy-duty truck sales. Chinese brands, popular for their Electric Vehicles (EVs), expanded their presence in Latin America, North America, and Europe, signifying the growing influence of Chinese manufacturers in these regional markets for sustainable transportation solutions.
 

The increasing advancements such as smart sensors, integration with ADAS system, real-time adjustments and many more in ATIS are fuelling market progress by offering improved efficiency, enhanced sensor technology, and IoT integration. These innovations provide better tire pressure maintenance, reducing vehicle downtime, optimizing fuel consumption, and ensuring safety. For instance, in September 2023, Infineon launched Xensiv SP49, an intelligent tire pressure monitoring sensor. This sensor offers advanced capabilities for intelligent tire functions, enabling on-tire auto-position sensing, aiding in inflation, detecting tire blowouts, and monitoring load. Its design enhances tire safety and performance with innovative & precise monitoring features.

The high initial investments pose a challenge to market demand. The significant upfront expenses for acquiring and installing ATIS may deter potential buyers, impacting their cost-benefit analysis. Convincing vehicle owners or fleet operators of the long-term value and cost savings from improved fuel efficiency and reduced maintenance remains a barrier for wider ATIS adoption across vehicle segments.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the automatic tire inflation system market by causing disruptions in manufacturing, supply chains, and reduced vehicle sales. Economic uncertainties led to a decline in investment, affecting the adoption rate of ATIS in vehicles. During the pandemic, the restricted movement and reduced transportation activities led to delayed vehicle maintenance, affecting the implementation of new system and hindering the market progression.
 

Automatic Tire Inflation System Market Trends

The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology is an emerging trend in the market. IoT integration offers real-time tire pressure monitoring, data analytics, and remote diagnostics, enhancing ATIS capabilities. By connecting tire sensors to IoT networks, ATIS can provide predictive maintenance alerts, efficient data collection, and remote accessibility. This trend enables advanced functionalities, improving vehicle safety, reducing maintenance costs, and promoting efficient tire pressure management across vehicle types.
 

The increasing focus on eco-friendly transportation solutions is driving the adoption of ATIS in the market. ATIS helps in maintaining optimal tire pressure, reducing fuel consumption, and consequently lowering emissions. By ensuring tires are consistently inflated to the recommended pressure, ATIS improves fuel efficiency and reduces carbon emissions, aligning with sustainability goals. This trend positions ATIS as a solution supporting eco-conscious practices within the automotive sector, fostering its adoption for greener transportation alternatives.
 

Automatic Tire Inflation System Market Analysis

Based on type, the automatic tire inflation system market is divided into central tire inflation, continuous tire inflation. The central tire inflation segment held major market share in 2022 due to the efficiency of CTIS in managing tire pressure across various terrains. CTIS offers on-the-fly pressure adjustments, ideal for diverse applications such as military vehicles, agricultural machinery, and off-road vehicles. The demand for adaptable systems that enhance vehicle performance in challenging terrains and specialized operations is driving the increased adoption of CTIS as a valuable solution in the ATIS industry.
 

Based on application, the ATIS market is categorized into commercial vehicle and passenger vehicle. The commercial vehicle segment held around 90% business share in 2022 and is poised for significant growth over the forecast period due to the increasing emphasis on maintenance cost reduction and operational efficiency. ATIS benefits commercial fleets by maintaining consistent tire pressure, improving fuel efficiency, and reducing tire wear. As fleet managers are prioritizing operational cost savings and safety, there is an increased demand for ATIS to enhance fuel economy, reduce maintenance, and ensure safer operations. This is expected to drive the adoption of ATIS within the commercial vehicles sector.
 

North America automatic tire inflation system market exceeded USD 0.27 billion in 2022 and is poised for significant growth over the forecast period due to the increasing adoption of ATIS in the regional commercial and military vehicle sectors. The emphasis on fuel efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and safety in commercial fleets, coupled with the need for advanced systems in military applications, is fueling ATIS demand.
 

For instance, in April 2023, BFGoodrich Tires unveiled the ActivAir integrated tire inflation system, enabling on-the-go tire adjustments for rugged terrains. The technology empowers drivers to adapt tire pressure while driving over diverse landscapes such as roads, rocks, sand, and mud. It was field-tested in extreme conditions including Dakar Rally and Ultra4 Racing. It provides adaptability for diverse off-road challenges.
