자동차용 등속 조인트 시장 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2024-2032년)

The Global Automotive Constant Velocity (CV) Joint Market was valued at USD 3.5 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a 5.7% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Growth is driven by increased consumer interest in AWD and 4WD vehicles, largely due to the enhanced traction, safety, and performance these systems provide, especially in regions with challenging terrain or extreme weather. AWD and 4WD systems depend heavily on CV joints for effective power transmission from the transmission to the wheels, allowing for the flexibility required on uneven terrain.

Automotive OEMs are focusing on building longer-lasting vehicles, which extends ownership periods and creates a rising demand for maintenance and replacement parts, including CV joints. These components are subject to wear, especially in high-mileage vehicles or those driven in rough conditions, leading to significant demand for quality aftermarket CV joints. This trend is powerful in North America and Europe, where older vehicles are prevalent, driving growth in the aftermarket CV joint sector as consumers seek affordable, dependable replacements.

Based on vehicle type, the market includes passenger cars and commercial vehicles. In 2023, the passenger car segment held over 70% of the market share, projected to exceed USD 4 billion by 2032. Growing demand for luxury and premium vehicles in North America, Europe, and parts of Asia is fueling the need for advanced CV joints that enhance ride comfort, minimize noise, and ensure smooth power transmission. Premium models require low noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), creating demand for CV joints designed for quiet, efficient operation, particularly in vehicles with sophisticated suspension systems.

Based on joint type, the market includes Rzeppa, tripod, double-offset, and cross-groove joints, among others. In 2023, the Rzeppa joint segment held 44% market share. These joints are widely used in FWD and AWD vehicles due to their high torque transmission efficiency at various angles. The popularity of FWD vehicles for their fuel efficiency and AWD vehicles for their traction and safety advantages continues to drive demand for Rzeppa joints.

The Asia-Pacific region led the global automotive CV joint market, holding over 40% of the share in 2023. Countries like India, Thailand, and Indonesia are becoming central to car manufacturing, increasing demand for CV joints, especially for the small and mid-size vehicles popular in these regions. As local production accelerates, suppliers receive more orders from OEMs and the aftermarket, supporting growth in the regional CV joint market.
