DUBLIN, May 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The “Europe’s Top 5 Medium & Heavy Truck Manufacturers – Annual Strategy Dossier – 2023 – Strategy Focus & Priorities, Key Strategies & Plans, SWOT, Trends & Growth Opportunities and Market Outlook – Daimler, Volvo, Traton, DAF, Iveco” company profile has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The European Medium & Heavy Truck Market Projected to maintain its Cruising Speed & Growth Momentum in 2023 led by Strong Freight & Construction Activity, Emerging Replacement Demand for Ageing In-Service Fleets and Ongoing Transition towards Electrification amid an Uncertain Global Macroeconomic Environment and Production Capacity Constraints.
The European Medium & Heavy Truck market has been cruising steadily amid strong transport activity marked by high freight volumes as well as rates and robust fleet utilization levels across operators bolstering aftermarket revenue stream for the industry while the demand for trucks and order backlogs have been surging in a predominantly supply side led market scenario.
The industry OEMs have been looking to increase production rates to meet surging demand levels, with the book-to-bill ratios hovering around 1, while battling continued supply chain disruptions & constraints, component shortages, rising input costs and an increasingly uncertain global macroeconomic environment marked by inflationary pressures, rising interest rates & tectonic geopolitical shifts.
The trucking industry’s ongoing transition towards de-carbonization, led by the mass production of battery electric & hydrogen fuel cell based trucks, is the overarching theme which is likely to gain further momentum going forward. Most key industry OEMs are now transitioning towards series production of Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) while also collaborating amongst each other and with domain specialists for development of the requisite ecosystem for transition towards sustainability. Additionally, automation, electrification and further evolution of connectivity based service models remain key areas of focus for the truck manufacturers
The industry continues to make steady progress towards transition to sustainable transportation through the development of a range of sustainable technologies geared towards de-carbonization of transportation over long term while continuing the development of innovative services & business models configured on connectivity, digitalization & autonomy. The efforts have primarily been led by electrification, focused on both battery electric & hybrid technologies, with most industry OEMs transitioning towards series production & commercial deliveries of electric trucks. This is likely to be followed by the mass market production, introduction & adoption of hydrogen powered trucks in the 2030s which is likely to be supported & further accelerated by key initiatives, like the H2Accelerate program by the industry in EU to accelerate the uptake of green hydrogen, and the creation of First Movers Coalition; geared towards jumpstarting the scalability of sustainable technologies through the end of current decade
The high average age of in-service truck fleets in the EU owing to production capacity constraints over the recent years, rapid energy transition towards de-carbonization and strong construction activity with continued infrastructure investments are likely to collectively provide significant growth opportunities to the industry over near to medium term in form of fleet replacements, expansion & recapitalizations, especially, in a volatile & uncertain crude oil price environment from an economics & policy perspective. That’s despite projections for the slowdown of the world economy over near term owing to market headwinds, the ongoing war in Ukraine and rising inflation levels necessitating a wave of monetary policy tightening by central banks across the globe
Trucking, thus, is projected to maintain its overall cruising speed as well as growth momentum in 2023 across most markets with a year-on-year growth of up to 10% projected for traditional markets, i.e., North American Class 8 and EU30 market for heavy trucks, while the growth rate for emerging markets in Asia, led by China and India, is likely to be around 15%
