According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Tire Market Report by Design (Radial Market, Bias Market), End-Use (OEM Market, Replacement Market), Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, Light Commercial Vehicles, Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles, Two Wheelers, Three Wheelers, Off-The-Road (OTR)), Distribution Channel (Offline, Online), Season (All Season Tires, Winter Tires, Summer Tires), and Region 2025-2033,” the global tire market size reached USD 172.98 Billion in 2024. Tires are ring-shaped flexible and pneumatic structures that are placed around the rim of a wheel. They are manufactured using wire, rayon, natural and synthetic rubber, polyester, steel, silica, carbon black and a vulcanization accelerator. These structures provide a sturdy gripping surface for traction while transferring the vehicle’s load to the surface. Tires also absorb shocks and reduce the impact of vibrations while driving as they serve as a cushion for the wheels of a moving vehicle. This enhances the road feel and improves the overall performance of the vehicle.
Global Tire Market Trends:
The global tire market is primarily driven by the rapid growth of the automotive sector. The rising global population, rapid urbanization and increasing consumer expenditure capacities have escalated the demand for passenger vehicles across the globe, especially in developing countries. Besides this, with the increasing demand for construction vehicles due to expanding infrastructural development, is significantly catalyzing the market growth. Moreover, several leading manufacturers are extensively investing in research and development (R&D) activities to improve tire design and rubber quality. This has led to the advent of non-pneumatic tires (NPT) or airless tires that do not deflate under any circumstances. Besides this, with the growing environmental concerns, numerous ecological tires have also been introduced in the market, which is gaining widespread popularity owing to their enhanced focus toward sustainable development. They are also introducing biodegradable 3D printed smart concept tires, manufactured using sustainable materials, which are airless and equipped with sensors that offer real-time updates about the condition of the tire. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 270.66 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 4.70% during 2025-2033.
