Global Light-Duty Truck Steering System Market to Reach USD 1.70 Billion by 2032

The Global Light-Duty Truck Steering System Market was valued at approximately USD 1.4 billion in 2023 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.2% over the forecast period 2024-2032. The surging demand for fuel-efficient and lightweight steering mechanisms, coupled with increasing regulatory pressures for enhanced vehicle maneuverability and safety, is driving the expansion of this market. Automakers are actively integrating advanced electronic power steering (EPS) systems in light-duty trucks to optimize control, improve fuel economy, and reduce carbon emissions.
The market is witnessing a technological revolution as automakers transition from hydraulic steering systems to electronically controlled steering solutions. This shift is primarily fueled by the push toward electrification of vehicles and the need for enhanced precision and driver assistance features. Additionally, manufacturers are heavily investing in steer-by-wire technology, which eliminates the need for mechanical connections, thereby reducing vehicle weight and increasing overall efficiency. Such advancements are significantly reshaping the light-duty truck steering system landscape.
The increasing adoption of pick-up trucks and vans for commercial and personal applications is further propelling market demand. Logistics and e-commerce companies are expanding their fleets to accommodate growing delivery needs, intensifying the focus on steering system efficiency and durability. Furthermore, the rising preference for aftermarket steering solutions, particularly in fleet management, is fostering lucrative opportunities for OEM and third-party component manufacturers. However, high costs associated with advanced steering technologies and the complexity of integrating electronic control units (ECUs) with existing truck architectures may pose challenges to widespread adoption.
Regionally, North America dominates the market due to the strong presence of light-duty truck manufacturers and a growing preference for advanced steering technologies in commercial vehicle fleets. Meanwhile, Europe is witnessing steady growth due to stringent vehicle safety regulations and increased adoption of electrified steering systems. In contrast, Asia Pacific is expected to record the fastest growth, driven by rising production of light-duty trucks, government initiatives to modernize transportation, and expanding logistics networks across China and India.
Major market players included in this report are:
