Commercial Vehicle Active Power Steering market Growth equipped with active power Steering exhibit enhanced performance and safety due to which they have become almost ubiquitous in commercial vehicles. These systems are highly compatible with advanced assistance systems and are extensively used these days. The commercial vehicle (CV) active power steering market is anticipated to register a notable CAGR of 12% over the forecast period of 2018-2023, affirms Market Research Future (MRFR) in its latest study.

Rapidly growing transport and logistics are met with various safety challenges which require technical solutions. Intensified focus on driver and road safety, increasing trading activities across borders, and remarkable growth of the logistics industry has been instrumental in shaping the growth of the commercial Vehicle Active power steering market.

Hydraulic power steering system (HPS) are extensively used in medium commercial vehicles and heavy commercial vehicles. The popular steer-by-wire technology used in HPS renders advantages such as reliability, safety, improved fuel economy, and performance. This has considerably driven the market for commercial vehicle active power steering market. However, electric power steering (EPS) and electrohydraulic power steering (EHPS) have gained traction in recent years. Automobile manufacturers are progressively incorporating EPS in commercial vehicles to reap the benefits of better fuel economy and simplified electric motor design. Moreover, EPS uses electric power for steering instead of fuel which acts a s a major selling proposition. Moreover, all commercial vehicles are subject to stringent regulations by various federal agencies to prevent commercial vehicle-related fatalities and injuries. Such regulations spur the adoption of active power steering in commercial vehicles and boost the growth of the market.

Segmentation

The commercial vehicle active power steering market has been segmented based on type and application.

By type, the commercial vehicle active power steering  market has been segmented into hydraulic power steering (HPS), electric power steering (EPS), and electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS). HPS is widely used in most commercial vehicles while the EPS segment is anticipated to exhibit rapid growth over the forecast period. EPS eliminates environmental threats posed by leakage and disposal of hydraulic power steering fluids along with various other advantages such as no loss of electrical assistance during engine failure, fuel efficiency, elimination of belt-driven engine accessory.

By application, the commercial vehicle active power steering market has been segmented into light commercial vehicle, medium commercial vehicle, and heavy commercial vehicle.
