Automotive connecting rod bearing, which is also known as rod-end bearing, is considered to be a significant part of the engine assembly. It delivers a rotary motion owing to its two-piece band structure.
The motion is produced when two parts, namely, the bearings and connecting rods are connected. Depending upon the type of engine, it can handle maximum pressure and load capacity.
Sales of automotive connecting rod bearing are expected to surge at a fast pace stoked by the rising demand for both commercial and passenger vehicles. Increasing usage of lightweight components to manufacture automotive connecting rod bearings is also set to augment the global market.
Rising adoption of titanium connecting rods backed by their lightweight nature is another factor that is projected to foster the market. In addition to that, ongoing development of carbon fiber connecting rods in vehicles across the globe is likely to open new opportunities for renowned manufacturers.

Surging usage of advanced materials to increase the lifespan of automotive connecting rod bearings is anticipated to propel the market. Increasing demand for performance-oriented components with high reliability and durability is another major factor that is expected to bode well for the global automotive connecting rod bearing market growth in the assessment period.
High demand for passenger cars and commercial vehicles is also expected to push the market. Aftermarket sales of automotive connecting rod bearings are likely to surge at a rapid pace as regular oil and oil filter changes lower the wear of bearings.
According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, in 2021, approximately 82,684,788 vehicles were sold across the globe. The number is anticipated to increase in future, thereby propelling the global market.
Increasing production of battery electric vehicles across the globe may hamper the demand for automotive connecting rod bearing. High research & development expenditure and ongoing technological advancements are expected to decline the prices of batteries.
Governments of various countries are also investing huge sums in the development of charging station infrastructure worldwide. Besides, need to reduce carbon emission from conventional vehicles is likely to push sales of electric vehicles and obstruct the market.
Principal Consultant
As per FMI, North America is expected to remain at the forefront by generating the largest automotive connecting rod bearing market share in future years. Increasing investment by regulatory bodies to accelerate technological innovations in the automotive industry across the USA and Canada is projected to aid growth.
Moreover, the presence of various prominent companies across North America is anticipated to push the development of cutting-edge automotive connecting rod bearing in the evaluation period. High demand for vehicle customization is also set to drive sales of custom auto components, including automotive connecting rod bearing in North America.
Growing sales of vehicles in emerging economies, such as India and China backed by high disposable income and rising living standards are likely to augment the Asia Pacific automotive connecting rod bearing market size. As per the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), between April-October 2021, nearly 13 million vehicles were produced in India, whereas about 22.65 million vehicles were produced in FY21.
India is considered to be a noteworthy automotive exporter and has a robust growth expectation for the upcoming years. In February 2022, for instance, Mahindra & Mahindra, Ford, Kia, Tata Motors, Hyundai, and Suzuki were chosen under the Production Linked Incentives Scheme. Around 20 companies under this scheme will receive incentives from the government to surge local vehicle manufacturing. Similar government initiatives in Asia Pacific are expected to augment the market.
