Truck and Bus Tire Market Insights
The increasing need for passenger and freight transportation vehicles and innovations in tire manufacturing technology are directly benefiting the overall sale of truck and bus tires. Manufacturers of tires are constantly making innovations in the material used such as non-pneumatic tires, firmer tiring nanomaterial, and technologies for overcoming present wear and rolling resistance and tire grip in truck tires. Likewise, more focus has been given to the quest for alternatives, sustainability, and abating the use of volatile raw materials such as oil-derived products or organic rubber for the quality advancement of tires. The increase in pubic and freight transportation due to growing mobility and urbanization has increased the need for vehicle ownership and in due course has up-surged the demand for quality tires and is leading to market growth.
Truck and Bus Tire Market Segmentation
The worldwide market for truck and bus tire is split based on tire type, tire size, application, sales channel, and geography.
Truck and Bus Tires Market Tire Types
- Tube-Type
- Tubeless
- Non-Radial
- Radial
According to our truck and bus tire industry analysis, radial tires have dominated the truck and bus tire market. Radial tyres outperform non-radial tyres in terms of performance, safety, and fuel efficiency. They provide a smoother ride, longer tyre life, and lower rolling resistance, all of which contribute to increased fuel efficiency. Radial tyres have become the preferred choice for commercial vehicle owners and fleet operators as a result of these advantages. As a result, in recent years, radial tyres have accounted for a sizable portion of the truck and bus tyre market. Non-radial tyres, on the other hand, are still in demand, particularly in certain regions where they are recommended due to their durability and resistance to harsh road conditions. The preference between radial and non-radial tyres is also determined by the commercial vehicle's specific needs and operating conditions.
Truck and Bus Tires Market Tire Sizes
- Less Than 15”
- 15” - 20”
- 21” - 30”
- More Than 30"
According to the oil and gas data management market forecast, the tire size that dominates the truck and bus tire market is the 21”-30” category. This category includes tyres for medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses, that are among the most common types of commercial vehicles on the road. The 21"-30" category includes a wide range of tyre sizes suitable for various commercial vehicles such as delivery trucks, dump trucks, and long-haul trucks. These tyres are engineered to provide long-term durability, performance, and safety under extreme operating conditions. However, there is also a demand for tyres in the 15"-20" and less than 15" categories, particularly for smaller commercial vehicles like vans and minibuses. Tires for specialised heavy-duty vehicles such as mining trucks and construction vehicles, which have specific tyre size and performance requirements, are included in the more than 30" category.
Truck and Bus Tires Market Applications
- Trucks
- Buses
According to truck & bus radial tire TBR market analysis, the trucks application is leading the market in 2022. Heavy-duty trucks account for the lion's share of the truck and bus tyre market. This is because heavy-duty trucks are used for long-distance transportation, construction, and other heavy-duty applications that require long-lasting, high-performance tyres. Heavy-duty trucks are also the most common type of commercial vehicle used globally, which drives demand for truck and bus tyres in this segment even further.
Aside from heavy-duty trucks, the sub-segment of light commercial vehicles (LCVs) contributes significantly to the truck and bus tyre market. LCVs are commonly used for goods and services to be transported in urban and semi-urban areas, and their popularity is growing as e-commerce and last-mile delivery services expand.
Truck and Bus Tires Market Sales Channels
- OEMs
- Aftermarket
OEMs are expected to lead the trucks and buses radial tire TBR market from 2023 to 2032. This is due to the fact that a large portion of truck and bus tyres are sold directly to commercial vehicle manufacturers for use in new vehicles. OEMs typically have long-term contracts with tyre manufacturers and purchase large quantities of tyres to meet their production needs. Furthermore, OEMs have stringent quality and performance standards for the tyres they use in their vehicles, which can limit the number of tyre suppliers with whom they work.
While the aftermarket is an important sales channel for truck and bus tyres, it is often more fragmented than the OEM channel. The aftermarket also comprises tyre replacement sales to fleet operators and private vehicle owners for vehicles whose original equipment manufacturer warranties have expired.
