The passenger vehicles segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 1.24 billion in 2018. . Additionally, customers are willing to pay premium prices for the added benefits of automotive seat actuation systems, as they boost his or her social status, comfort, and safety. Moreover, the increase in disposable incomes worldwide is fueling the adoption of luxury passenger cars. Hence, the increased penetration of luxury passenger cars will push revenue growth of the global market in the passenger vehicles segment during the forecast period.
The market is driven by growth drivers such as increased long-distance traveling and reduced commuting time, emphasizing the demand for comfort and adjustability in seats. It spans into aircraft seat actuation systems, focusing on optimization and connectivity through smart maintenance and electronic control units. Key components include actuators, wiring harnesses, and lumbar massage systems, catering to premium air travel needs in both commercial aircraft and military aircraft sectors. Leading market players invest significantly in research and development (R&D) to enhance lightweight equipment, ensuring efficient maintenance and retrofitting solutions for the aviation industry.
The increasing popularity of luxury vehicles is the key factor driving market growth. Increasing disposable income worldwide is increasing the spending power of people significantly. The preference for purchasing luxury and premium cars is increasing among people in both developed as well as developing countries. Sales of luxury cars, including those manufactured by Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Volvo, Volkswagen, and Porsche, have increased significantly over the years. Exclusivity, comfort, and quality are the major factors associated with luxury cars, which encourage and attract people to purchase luxury and premium segment cars.
Furthermore, these systems are majorly used to enhance the features integrated into seats in premium and luxury cars. Consequently, the increasing demand for luxury cars among people and the rising focus of automotive manufacturers on developing high-end passenger luxury cars with innovative interiors are increasing the demand, which, in turn, will fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The development of holistic human-machine interface (HMI)-embedded seats is the primary trend shaping market growth. The suppliers strive to keep pace constantly with rising consumer expectations in terms of the addition of luxury features in automobiles. Such efforts have led to the development of intelligent seat configurations and adjustment features, which have increased the comfort level of drivers and passengers. However, this development remains unviable in autonomous vehicles, which are considered the future of the automotive industry. This incompatibility has paved the way for the integration embedded with holistic human-machine interfaces (HMI) by market players like Faurecia.
For instance, there is a growing focus on storing the position through a memory function and allowing its retrieval whenever required. Thus, such developments will enhance the role in automated vehicles, where drivers will be able to perform tasks without any manual effort. Additionally, aligned with market trends and analysis, the user can also enter the information through the digital console in the vehicle. Thus, such developments related to the integration of holistic HMIs in seats will be a crucial factor driving the market growth during the forecast period.
Limitations associated with seat actuation systems is a challenge that affects market growth. Seat actuation systems are majorly integrated into advanced premium segment vehicles to enhance their features and the comfort of users. However, any technical difficulties or malfunctioning of such advanced systems may reduce the efficiency of the power seat, which may hamper the uptake of seat actuation systems. This, in turn, is expected to hinder the growth of the market to a certain extent.
Moreover, most advanced vehicles are connected to smartphones for easy operation. Mobile applications are used to operate certain functions in vehicles. Any unauthorized remote access gained by hacking into such mobile applications may limit the access to control various internal functions in a vehicle, including seating, which, in turn, may lead to the damage of power seats. Such safety issues related to mobile applications associated with seat control modules are expected to impede market growth during the forecast period.
