The reports categorize the global automotive battery testers market as a part of the global automotive components and accessories market within the global auto components market. The global automotive components and accessories market covers companies engaged in the production of parts and accessories for automobiles like passenger cars (PCs), electric vehicles (EVs), commercial vehicles (CVs), heavy-duty vehicles, off-road vehicles motorcycles, scooters, quad bikes, and three-wheelers. Our research report has extensively covered external factors influencing the parent market growth during the forecast period.
The increasing lifespan of vehicles leading to growth in vehicle population is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the development of supercapacitors to replace batteries may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Automotive Battery Testers Market Driver
One of the major factors driving the market growth is the rising lifespan of vehicles, which is consequently increasing the number of vehicles in operation in several countries. Modern vehicles have rigid construction, a long-lasting and highly durable engine, and undergo regular maintenance at periodic intervals. This has led to an increase in the lifespan of vehicles, as consumers can keep their vehicles in operation for a longer period of time. Hence, the demand for automotive repair and maintenance services is rising across the world.
Passenger cars and utility vehicles such as sports-utility vehicles (SUVs), multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs), crossovers, and pickup trucks are also becoming popular in the global automotive market. This creates a high demand for preventive maintenance services for essential automotive components such as batteries. Such factors are increasing the need for battery-testing equipment, which is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
Significant Automotive Battery Testers Market Trend
The development of touchscreen battery testers is the primary trend in the market. Customers globally are well-versed in the use of the touchscreen interface. Touchscreen displays have been widely adopted across various devices, including smartphones, and they allow vendors to manage space constraints on electronic devices.
For instance, traditional battery testers with buttons as an interface require multiple buttons for various functionalities. This led to less amount of space for the display, which proved inconvenient for technicians and customers. On the other hand, a touchscreen display interface allows the addition of multiple functions in a battery diagnostic service system in a convenient way. Hence, it is expected that other prominent vendors will adopt this technology, which, in turn, will positively impact the market during the forecast period.
Major Automotive Battery Testers Market Challenge
The development of supercapacitors to replace batteries is the major challenge impeding the market. Lead-acid batteries inherently have low power density, hence their charge and discharge rates are slow. Their ability to retain energy throughout their lifetime deteriorates due to material damage. Also, due to the numerous charge and discharge cycles, the chemical compounds inside the battery degrade over time.
In a supercapacitor, the energy is stored electrostatically on the surface of the material and does not involve any chemical reaction. Supercapacitors have a high-power density. They can be charged quickly, and they release the power in fast bursts of current. Hence, supercapacitors are gaining prominence in the automotive industry which will challenge the demand for batteries and negatively impact the adoption of battery testers during the forecast period.

APAC is estimated to contribute 49% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
APAC is the fastest-growing region in the global automotive battery testers market. The region is a high-volume adopter of passenger cars and CVs. Moreover, passenger cars in several APAC countries are used for short-distance commuting with high traffic congestion. This results in incomplete charging of vehicle batteries and leads to sulfation. In addition, most vehicles in APAC belong to the entry-level and mid-level segments, which have batteries that only perform rudimentary functions and require regular maintenance and servicing. Hence, APAC is expected to witness an increased number of battery failures during the forecast period, resulting in an increase in the requirement for frequent testing of vehicle batteries. Therefore, APAC is expected to experience high growth in the demand for battery testers during the forecast period.
The rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in APAC adversely impacted the automobile industry. However, an increase in investment inflows into the automotive industry led to the reopening of electric vehicle manufacturing plants across the region. Also, the lifting of lockdowns has resulted in the resumption of traveling activities, which has propelled the demand for automotive vehicles and batteries in automotive vehicles in APAC. Such factors are expected to foster the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.
