Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The high penetration of hydraulic power steering in commercial vehicles is notably driving the hydraulic steering system market growth, although factors such as increasing penetration of EPS systems may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the hydraulic steering system industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Hydraulic Steering System Market Driver
One key factor driving the growth of hydraulic steering system market is the high penetration of hydraulic power steering in commercial vehicles. Conventional hydraulic power steering is predominantly used in heavy commercial vehicles. Most commercial vehicles use the hydraulic or the EHS system as the EPS system has not been able to cross the 15 kN barriers. Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 trucks are equipped with EPS, but other HCVs are still dependent on hydraulic steering systems. The power required to steer a truck is higher than a car. There is a huge difference in the front axle load in trucks and cars. A standard car carries up to 750 Kg, whereas most heavy trucks carry up to 7,500 Kg. The most common front axle steering for heavy commercial vehicles is hydraulic steering. The rear-drive axles are not steered generally, while the other rear axles are steered and serve the purpose of protecting the tire from wear and reducing the effective wheelbase. This has driven the growth of the market for hydraulic steering system.
Key Hydraulic Steering System Market Trend
Growing use of EHPS in heavy commercial vehicles is a hydraulic steering system market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. As part of the electrification trend in the automotive industry, energy saving is one of the most important concerns for the development of new vehicles, especially for power steering systems. In a hydraulic power steering system, 70% of the fuel is consumed by hydraulics, which can be prevented by the use of more advanced power steering systems such as EPS and EHPS. Conventional hydraulic steering systems are predominantly used in MCVs and HCVs. EHPS systems have been used in passenger cars since the 1980s and are known to provide fuel efficiency. So, most of the OEMs have tried to develop a similar EHPS system for MCVs and HCVs.
Key Hydraulic Steering System Market Challenge
Increasing penetration of EPS systems will be a major challenge for the hydraulic steering system market during the forecast period. EPS systems improve the fuel economy by 2.5% compared with hydraulic systems as they do not use pumps, hoses, drive belts, fluids, and pulleys. EPS systems tend to be smaller and lighter than hydraulic systems. Also, unlike a hydraulic power steering system that is continually driven using a hydraulic pump, the EPS motor is powered only when necessary. EPS provides improved efficiency due to the reduction of parasitic losses and is considerably cheaper to manufacture than traditional hydraulic systems. It also offers manufacturers a multitude of improvements that have proven impossible to overlook, resulting in a proliferation of EPS systems.

2% of the market's growth will originate from South America during the forecast period. Mexico is the key market for hydraulic steering system market in South America. Market growth in this region will be faster than the growth of the market in regions.
North America is another region showing major market growth. The increasing pressure for achieving fuel efficiency combined with the rising demand for power steering systems will drive the market for EPS systems, resulting in the phasing out of hydraulic power steering systems in North America. This market research report entails detailed information on the competitive intelligence, marketing gaps, and regional opportunities in store for vendors, which will assist in creating efficient business plans.
COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The decline in the demand for automotive products as well as automobiles amid the COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down the adoption and sales of hydraulic steering systems in the region. Over 6.8 million deaths from COVID-19 were reported in North America as of August 31, 2021. Additionally, the weakening of the US dollar against other currencies is expected to have a negative impact on the import of raw materials, such as steel and aluminum, both of which are used in manufacturing hydraulic steering systems. This is expected to hamper the growth of the market in focus in North America during the forecast period. In the first half of 2021, the countries in this region lifted the lockdown restrictions and trade activities resumed, which resulted in the import of mechanical components on a large scale to recover from the losses incurred in 2020 and to meet consumer demand.

The hydraulic steering system market share growth by the LCVs segment will be significant during the forecast period. APAC is estimated to have the largest market share for the LCVs segment in the market in focus. This is mainly because the popular LCVs in China, such as Foton Aumark FL, Changhe mini trucks, and Dongfeng mini trucks, predominantly use hydraulic steering and manual steering systems. In India, popular LCVs such as Tata Ace, Ashok Leyland Dost, Mahindra, Tata Xenon are equipped with hydraulic steering systems, while Maxximo uses a manual steering system.
