The passenger car tire segment is the most critical segment for tire manufacturers in Japan. In terms of sales, it covers more than 70% of the total tire sales for this market. Both, OEM and the replacement tire segment of the market in Japan have grown steadily to boost vendor profit margins over the past few years.
Japan is home to some of the largest global tire manufacturers such as Bridgestone, Sumitomo, and Yohohama. Large manufacturers in Japan are keen to leverage the opportunity that has emerged with the growing mini passenger car segment. Vendors are looking to launch many new variants of tires with shorter wheelbase diameters sensing this opportunity. The market is also witnessing a growing demand for tires from electric vehicles, thus prompting manufacturers to invest in this segment as well. Overall, the continuing demand for tire replacements is expected to help the passenger car tire market grow at a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period.
