Global Two-Wheeler Spark Plugs Market 2017-2021

Overview of the global two-wheeler spark plugs market

Technavio’s market research report predicts that the global two-wheeler spark plugs market will grow at a CAGR of above 6% during the forecast period. The increase in personal mobility that drives the higher sales volume of two-wheelers is one of the primary drivers for market growth. The rising need for personal mobility leads to the growth in sales of two-wheelers. However, the increasing traffic congestion has curbed the personal mobility due to the decrease in the speed of traffic. It has been observed that in cities like Beijing in China and Bengaluru in India, the traffic speeds are about 8 miles/ hour during peak hours. To counter the long waiting hours in traffic, the two-wheeler scooter segment is the preferred option as they offer more flexibility and personal mobility on congested roads. This increased popularity of the scooter segment will lead to a significant increase in its sales, consecutively driving the demand for two-wheeler spark plugs during the forecasted period.

The recent years witnessed a rising preference for iridium spark plugs across vehicle manufacturers in the commuter segment due to its reliability and durability. In addition to requiring low voltage that reduces the load on the ignition system, iridium spark plugs also cover an average of about 30,000 miles. Also, these spark plugs give out a precise spark every time resulting in efficient combustion, in turn, increasing the fuel economy. As a result, the coming years will witness an exponential increase in the need for iridium spark plugs, which will be one of the major trends that gaining traction in the two-wheeler spark plugs market.
