The automotive spark plug is a device designed to fit in each cylinder of a gasoline-powered
internal-combustion engine to produce the electric spark for ignition of the air-fuel mixture.
The automotive glow plug is a device fitted into each cylinder of a diesel engine, with a
heating element to heat incoming fuel and air to ensure efficient combustion when the
engine is cold. Automotive spark & glow plugs are generally classified by type into hot spark
plugs, cold spark plugs, metal glow plugs and ceramic glow plugs. On the basis of vehicle
type, the market has been segmented into passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCV)
and heavy commercial vehicle (HCV). The market is segmented into OEM (original
equipment manufacturer) and aftermarket, on basis of the sales channel.
Increasing automotive production & vehicle parc, upcoming stringent fuel efficiency and
emission norms are expected to emerge as major factors driving the growth of automotive
spark & glow plugs market during the forecast period. Long-term business contracts of spark
& glow plugs manufacturers with OEMs helps them reduce production costs and increase
profit margins and also shield them from price fluctuations of raw material. Such factors are
further expected to fuel the growth of the market over the forecast period. However, rising
demand for electric vehicles due to increasing environmental awareness, fluctuating fuel
prices and ongoing inclination towards engine downsizing are projected to impede the
growth of the global automotive spark & glow plugs market during the forecast period.
Global automotive spark & glow plugs demand is expected to increase to 893,437 thousand
units by 2022 at a moderate CAGR during the forecast period.
In terms of market value, Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the global automotive spark &
glow plugs market over the forecast period. Europe is expected to be the second-largest
market, accounting for revenue share of 22.0% of the global estimated market value by
2016 end. MEA automotive spark & glow plugs market is slated to expand at the highest
CAGR in terms of value during the forecast period.
On the basis of product type, the ceramic glow plug segment is expected to expand at a
comparatively higher value CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment is
primarily driven by increasing demand for diesel engines in developing countries such as
China, Mexico and Brazil. On the basis of vehicle type, revenue contribution of the passenger
cars segment is expected increase at the CAGR of 2.3% during the forecast period. On the
basis of sales channel, aftermarket segment is expected to have dominant revenue share
over the forecast period.
