The market is influenced by various factors, including the increasing adoption of PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) technology and the rising demand for more efficient combustion and cooling technologies to reduce carbon emissions. Moreover, the transition towards vehicle electrification, driven by environmental concerns and stringent environmental laws, is shaping market trends. Challenges include addressing emission levels and developing pumps compatible with diverse vehicle sub systems, such as electronic fuel injection (EFI) systems. Additionally, managing the demand for pumps in passenger automobiles amid evolving consumer preferences presents another hurdle for market players to navigate efficiently.
The growth of the automotive industry in emerging economies is the key factor notably driving market growth. The growth of per capita income in emerging economies is a result of increased economic activity. Cities serve as the hub for economic growth, so rising economic development has fueled the expansion of big cities and urbanization. According to, governments in the majority of cities in developing economies are unable to meet the population's expanding demand for public transportation due to population growth and a dearth of transportation infrastructure.
Additionally, a rise in the sales of heavy commercial vehicles for logistics in emerging economies has been attributed to the railways' inability to provide last-mile connectivity as well as the rising popularity of e-commerce websites. The development of the automotive industry in emerging economies will be a key factor influencing the global market during the forecast period because automotive pumps are essential to the effective operation of automotive engines like gasoline, and diesel engines. Moreover, advancements in engine downsizing, turbochargers, superchargers, and direct injection technology are reshaping the automotive industry, offering opportunities for business growth and helping meet emission norms set by governments across countries.
Developments in the field of hydrocarbon evaporation control systems are an emerging trend in market growth. Environmental pollution reduction is becoming a major priority for the global automotive industry. As a result, various parties involved in the automotive value chain as well as institutions and government councils are working to create an automotive sector that is environmentally sustainable. As a result, automotive technologies and systems advance and innovate, minimizing negative environmental effects.
Moreover, to reduce evaporative hydrocarbon emissions, the electric pump is made to remove the air that contains hydrocarbons from the canister. The compact and lightweight Active Purge Pump, including an effective brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, can be activated and used on demand depending on the user. By incorporating cutting-edge algorithms, the primary function of the Active Purge Pump, as well as transmission oil pumps, can be improved while adding new features to accommodate future demands. Thus, developments in hydrocarbon evaporation control systems are a major trend for the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The increasing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles is a major challenge impeding market expansion. Government organizations promote hybrid and electric vehicles due to the rise in air pollution brought on by an increase in ICE-based vehicles and the non-renewable nature of petroleum-based fuels. During the forecast period, demand for automotive pumps, such as fuel pumps, water pumps, gear pumps, and oil pumps, will decline as hybrid and electric vehicle sales rise and investments in ICE vehicles, which use automotive pumps, decline.
Moreover, the use of electric and hybrid vehicles is actively being promoted by government organizations in the EU and developed nations like the US and Japan. The sale of ICE-based vehicles will be prohibited in the Netherlands, Norway, and Germany by 2025, respectively. Similar measures to outlaw the sale of ICE-powered vehicles by 2040 have been announced in the UK and France. Therefore, during the forecast period, the rising demand for hybrid and electric vehicles will pose a significant barrier to the growth of the market.

The mechanical segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 8.06 billion in 2018. Furthermore, there are two types of mechanical pumps such as: Low-pressure mechanical pumps: Low-pressure pumps mean they can only produce flow at low pressures. The pump will no longer create flow if the outlet pressure becomes too high. Mechanical pumps play a crucial role in the proper functioning of an automotive engine and various other systems. Such benefits of mechanical pumps are expected to increase their demand in the automotive industry. Thus, the growth of the mechanical segment in the market is expected to grow during the forecast period.
