Overview of the global automotive torque sensor market
According to Technavio’s research analysis, the rising demand for high-performance vehicles will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the global automotive torque sensor market during the forecast period. Our market research analysts predict that in terms of units, this market will grow at a CAGR of almost 4% by 2021. The automotive industry around the world is witnessing a solid rise in demand for high-performance vehicles. Compared to other vehicles, high-performance vehicles need more of torque measurement for engine, drivetrain, powertrain, and transmission calibration. Additionally, high-performance commercial vehicles also have the need for torque sensors for engine calibrations, safety, and transmission.
The increasing demand for wireless connectivity in the torque sensors is one of the key trends that will contribute to the market growth. The increased implementation of industrial wireless sensor networks in the automotive industry will raise the demand for wireless torque sensors in the future. In wireless torque sensors, the radio frequency (RF) telemetry is used instead of slip rings. This makes the sensors more dependable and long lasting. Also, the wireless torque sensor systems are increasingly used in applications where conventional torque transducers are not suitable due to high shaft speeds, vibrations, and contaminated environment.
