Market dynamics

3 factors across 2 forces
01

Increasing Adoption of EPS to Enhance Driving Experience

Electric power steering (EPS) has become increasingly popular in modern vehicles due to its advantages over traditional hydraulic power steering systems. This technology significantly enhances the driving experience in several ways, such as by improving fuel efficiency, enhanced steering precision and control, and variable steering assistance. Additionally, EPS systems have increasingly been integrated with ADAS, which provides features like lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and automatic parking.

Moreover, the adoption of EPS systems reduces the physical efforts required to steer, which is especially beneficial in city driving and parking situations. The increasing adoption of EPS over hydraulic power steering is because EPS systems are generally more lightweight compared to hydraulic systems. This helps to reduce mechanical complexity and leads to lower maintenance requirements. Thus, the increasing adoption of EPS systems to enhance the driving experience helps to increase the demand for EPS during the forecast period.

02

Growing Use of EPS to Reduce Complexity and Weight of Vehicles

Electric power steering (EPS) reduces complexity and weight in vehicles by simplifying the steering system's design and eliminating the need for certain components used in traditional hydraulic power steering. An EPS system uses an electric motor to provide power steering assistance, which is directly mounted on the steering column or rack. Thus, this integration allows for a more straightforward design compared to the complex arrangement of hydraulic systems, which requires circulation and pressure management.

Moreover, EPS systems use lightweight materials in their construction, helping to reduce the weight of vehicles. Components such as electric motors, sensors, bearings, and electronic control units are designed to be compact and efficient, further minimizing the weight of vehicles. Thus, EPS helps reduce complexity and weight in vehicles by simplifying the steering system's design, eliminating hydraulic components, reducing maintenance requirements, and allowing for more flexible placement of parts.

By Type

  • The electric power steering market is segmented into rack-assist electric power steering, column-assist electric power steering, and pinion-assist electric power steering.
  • The rack-assist electric power steering segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 40.0% of the electric power steering market.
  • The segment's large market share is attributed to the increasing adoption of rack-assist EPS to enhance steering precision; the increasing need to adjust the level of steering assistance based on vehicle speed and driving condition; and the rack-assist EPS to enhance fuel efficiency, steering response, and maintenance.
  • Additionally, with the growing adoption of rack-assist EPS, several providers are increasingly launching (mREPS) systems to efficiently meet OEMs’ wide-ranging requirements for advanced steering systems.
  • Additionally, with the growing adoption of rack-assist EPS, several providers are increasingly launching (mREPS) systems to efficiently meet OEMs’ wide-ranging requirements for advanced steering systems.
  • For instance, in April 2024, Nexteer Automotive Corporation (U.S.) launched the Modular Rack-Assist Electric Power Steering (mREPS) system and expanded the company’s cost-effective, modular EPS offerings.
  • Nexteer’s mREPS provides flexibility to efficiently meet OEMs’ wide-ranging requirements for advanced steering systems of heavier vehicles, EVs, and light commercial vehicles.
  • However, the column-assist electric power steering segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
  • This segment's growth is attributed to the increasing adoption of column-assist EPS due to its compact design, the rising use of column-assist EPS to reduce vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, and the integration of column-assist EPS with advanced driver-assistance systems such as lane-keeping assist and adaptive cruise control.

By Application

  • The electric power steering market is segmented into internal combustion engine vehicles and electric vehicles.
  • The internal combustion engine vehicle segment is expected to account for the larger share of above 68.0% of the electric power steering market.
  • The segment's large market share is attributed to the increasing adoption of EPS to enhance the driving experience in ICE vehicles; the rising use of EPS in ICE vehicles due to it being more energy-efficient compared to traditional hydraulic power steering systems; and the rising integration of EPS with various vehicle control systems such as stability control, lane-keeping assist, automatic parking.
  • However, the electric vehicles segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
  • This segment's growth is attributed to the increasing adoption of EPS in EVs to improve safety and redundancy, the rising use of EPS in electric vehicles for energy efficiency and to reduce vehicle complexity and weight, and the EPS's ability to provide variable steering assistance, enabling lighter steering at low speed and stronger steering at high speed.
