As a result, potential buyers may be deterred from purchasing new engines or upgrading their existing ones, leading to a slowdown in sales and market growth. High prices can create market segmentation, with premium engines catering to affluent customers willing to pay for advanced features and performance while budget-conscious buyers opt for lower-cost alternatives or used engines. This segmentation may limit the overall market size and hinder manufacturers' ability to reach a broader customer base.
