Report Description Table of Contents The tread depth monitors market was approximately $800 million in 2023 and is expected to rise to $1.6 billion by 2030, with a growth rate of 10.2% during the forecast period. The continued growth is due to the increasing snap in auto safety regulations, improvement in tire technologies, and the rising popularity of automatic automobiles. Tread depth monitors are highly technical tools used to determine the depth of the tread of a vehicle tire while offering important information relating to wear and safety. These monitors are gradually being integrated subtly into the numerous safety systems of current automobiles to achieve the intended function of ensuring that drivers manage to maintain the tires in the best condition possible to avert mishaps occasioned by blew-out tires. The automotive industry is focusing on safety, efficiency, and automation, leading to the growing demand for tread depth monitors. Market Dynamics Regulatory Push and Technological Advancements: Key Drivers of the Tread Depth Monitoring Market Stringent Safety Regulations Many governments are putting in place reinforced safety measures to reduce the number of road accidents that are the result of a failed tire. For instance, Regulation (EC) No. 661/2009 of the European Union requires original equipment tires in new automotive applications to have advanced tire monitoring systems, which promote tread depth monitors. For instance, the NHTSA in the United States has pointed out that tire aging is responsible for over 25,000 accidents yearly, thus underlining the importance of monitoring tread depth in enhancing road safety. Growth of Fleet Management Solutions Tread depth monitors are becoming more popular with fleet operators who seek to minimize repair costs and improve efficiency. Some tyre management solutions, such as tread depth monitoring, have been developed by big firms such as Bridgestone and Michelin to assist in projecting the time when maintenance would be required to avoid much downtime. There has been a steady emergence of new automotive technologies. The Electric Vehicle Revolution: Opportunities for Tread Depth Monitoring in Smart Mobility IID: Increasing Use of Electric Vehicles (EVs) This poses an opportunity for tread depth monitor manufacturing companies due to the lightning growth of the EV market. EVs generally need specific tread patterns and wear and tear, unlike general vehicles. Monitoring the tread depth, therefore, regularly functions as an essential thing. EV makers today are integrating new technologies into their new models; for instance, Tesla has adopted smart tire monitoring features on the Model S Plaid. Expansion in Emerging Markets High growth is a reality because there is increased car usage and denser awareness of safety, as in the Asian-Pacific and Latin American markets. For instance, the Indian autonomous Bharat Stage VI (BS-VI) implemented to increase vehicle safety and reduce emissions is likely to push the use of tread depth monitors in the region. From High Costs to Low Awareness: The Hurdles Facing Tread Depth Monitors High Installation Costs Budget and mid-range car manufacturers continue to pay a high price for incorporating tread depth monitors in vehicles. Tread depth monitor systems cost between $150 and $300 per vehicle; therefore, the lack of adoption is due to cost control issues. Limited Consumer Awareness This lack of awareness constrains the growth of the market because consumers are often unaware of the ability to monitor tread depth to enhance safety and tire durability. Consequently, this was considered an appropriate factor that would be fundamental in educating the consumers about the benefits these systems bring about, enhancing the market. Comprehensive Segmentation of the Tread Depth Monitoring Market By Product Type Digital Tread Depth Monitors Analog Tread Depth Gauges Integrated Tire Monitoring Systems Other Monitoring Devices By Vehicle Type Passenger Cars Commercial Vehicles Electric Vehicles Heavy-Duty Trucks By Distribution Channel OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) Aftermarket By Region North America Europe Asia-Pacific Latin America Middle East & Africa Integrated Tire Monitoring Systems: The Leading Segment in Tread Depth Monitoring Leading Segment: Integrated Tire Monitoring Systems. The market is predominantly held by integrated tire monitoring systems due to aspects of efficiency and compatibility with advanced auto technologies. Such systems can be designed to monitor the tread depth but can also include other functions, like pressure and temperature systems, making them very useful. Regional Dynamics: North America at the Forefront of Tread Depth Monitoring Adoption Leading Region: North America North America has the highest market share of more than 40% in the year 2023 because the region has strict safety laws regulating the transport sector, a high car penetration rate, and new technologies in transporting systems. The United States of America, being one of the biggest markets, has experienced the integration of tread depth monitors into both car and light truck applications. Other Regions •Europe: Europe constitutes the second largest market and its demand is governed by the safety requirements and integration of smart tire systems. Germany being a leader in car manufacturing is the frontrunner in the regional market. •Asia-Pacific: Asia-Pacific is poised to witness the fastest growth due to increasing automobile manufacturing and growing consumer concern for safety in the growing countries, including China and India. •Middle East & Africa: This segment is experiencing growth in this area as a result of increased requirement for ‘beefed-up’ vehicles for industrial and distribution use.
