Summary of Key Findings
Market Size 2014–2022
Total market size for wheel-end components was estimated to be million units, generating $ million in revenue, in 2014. In 2022, the market is expected to decline to million units with revenue of $ million.
Pricing
Tier I suppliers are facing pricing pressures from consumers who are increasingly demanding low-cost options (which are typically $ to $ less) for wheel-end components as total cost of ownership (TCO) concerns continue to mount.
