Automotive skid plate market in the Americas: The growth of the automotive skid plate market in the Americas is attributable to the increased adoption of SUVs, pickup trucks, adventure motorcycles, and ATVs, owing to the regional demographics that encourage people to buy large-size vehicles. Furthermore, declining gasoline prices, increasing credit availability, the emergence of new models, and better leasing options are other key factors that are propelling the growth of the American SUV market and in turn, the demand for skid plates in the region.
According to Siddharth Jaiswal, a lead analyst at Technavio, specializing in research on automotive components, “The sales of off-road trucks and sport utility vehicles are rapidly outpacing the sales of all other vehicles types in the US as the consumers are exchanging classic and premium sedans with large SUVs and pickup trucks. The rise in the sales volumes of off-road vehicles is propelling the demand for automotive skid plates in the Americas.”
Automotive skid plate market in APAC: The growth of the automotive skid plate market in APAC is anticipated to be concentrated around developing economies such as China and India. Improving economic conditions and other socio-economic factors such as cheap labor, the increasing number of automotive manufacturing plants, and the changing consumer preference toward large and spacious vehicles are factors that will aid the growth of the market in this region during the forecast period.
