Heavy-duty Vehicle Engine Brake Market: Key Drivers and Trends
As heavy-duty vehicles carry a higher load compared to medium-duty cars, a larger force is required to stop the vehicle. The increase in the use of service brakes over a long duration increases friction, and the heat generated at the disc and the brake pad contact point increases the wear and tear of the brake pads and disc. This results in fire in the brakes, which will lead to increased maintenance costs for vehicle owners. This will subsequently drive the demand for heavy-duty vehicle engine brakes, driving market growth.
- Heavy-duty vehicle engine brake market trends, such as the growing adoption of electronically assisted braking functionalities will also influence the market growth during the forecast period.
- Advances in the automotive industry have led to the development of auxiliary braking systems such as engine brakes.
- To reduce the number of road accidents, government bodies are emphasizing on integrating advanced safety technologies into vehicles.
- For instance, the US government has already made it mandatory to equip all vehicles with automatic emergency brake (AEB) systems by 2022.
- This will increase the adoption of advanced braking technologies, which will lead to further inventions in engine braking systems.
- As a result of such factors, the heavy-duty vehicle engine brake market size will grow at a CAGR of almost 6% during 2019-2023.
