Automotive Oxygen Sensor Market Analysis & Forecast 2024-2030

Global Automotive Oxygen Sensor Market is expected to reach USD 9653.48 million by 2030 with CAGR of 6.3% between 2024 and 2030

An automotive oxygen sensor is used to measure the concentration of oxygen in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine in an automobile. The amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas is a good indicator of the combustion efficiency of an engine and is also the best place to monitor the air-to-fuel ratio. An oxygen sensor checks whether the air-to-fuel ratio is lean or rich, and it dynamically adjusts the air-fuel ratio so that the catalytic converter can work optimally. It also determines whether the catalytic converter is functioning properly or not.  

Oxygen sensors are used to measure respiration or production of oxygen. Oxygen sensors are utilized in oxygen analysers, which are extensively employed in medical applications such as anaesthesia monitors, respirators, and oxygen concentrators. Furthermore, oxygen sensors make modern electronic fuel injection and emission control possible. The life of vehicle is depending on its powertrain system. An oxygen sensor checks the air-to-fuel ratio and exhaust, which helps increase the life of the vehicle by maintaining the health of the powertrain system. Consumer demand for vehicles with advanced features and technology has witnessed an increase in demand due to improved standard of living.  

Moreover, increasing urbanization and rising population has fuelled the need for environmentally suitable conveyance facilities, as the climatic conditions in cities are not good and pollution due to vehicle is rising consistently. Stringent norms imposed globally by regulatory bodies on carbon emissions of automobiles are anticipated to propel the demand for automotive oxygen sensors. An automotive oxygen sensor is located in the powertrain system and exhaust, which has changing operating temperature range. Therefore, in case of damage, replacement is a big issue.  

By product type, the global automotive oxygen sensor market can be segmented into Zirconia Sensor, Wideband Zirconia Sensor, and Titania Sensor. Zirconia (Zirconium dioxide) is based on solid-state electrochemical fuel cell. It consists of two electrodes which provide the output voltage, gives corresponding amount of oxygen in exhaust as compared to the atmosphere. It also provides a response to the ECU, which ultimately provides the air-to-fuel ratio. A wideband zirconia sensor is related to the zirconia sensor; however, it has differences in the band (potential difference) of zirconia sensor. It consists of a feedback loop, which controls the gas pump current, and the gas pump current directly provides the oxygen content in the exhaust. The titania sensor is made of ceramic titania (titanium oxide). It doesn’t generate its own voltage but it provides the amount of oxygen in the exhaust through electric resistance.  

As per application side, the global automotive oxygen sensor market can be categorized into Passenger Cars and Commercial Vehicles. Increase in the number of passenger cars over the last decade, is responsible for the emission of harmful gases in the environment, which is degrading the efficiency of cars. Oxygen sensor improves the functionality of the cars. These sensors provide features such as better resolution, higher accuracy as well as long-time stability especially under severe environmental conditions. The sensors not only improve the durability of the cars but also keep a track on emission of harmful gases and reduces the threat of air pollution from the environment.  

In terms of region, the automotive oxygen sensor market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World (ROW). Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market, with expectation of impressive CAGR over the forecast period, due to the high adoption rate of automotive oxygen sensors and the growing automotive sector leading to an increased production of vehicles with automotive oxygen sensors, especially in China and India. Growth in this region is led by strong production and sales of automobiles, new government regulations mandating the use of technologies that enhance safety and reduce pollution, and growing demand for luxury, full-featured cars in countries like China and India. Sensors for car cabin comfort and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) are expected to witness strong growth.  

Some of the key participants in global automotive oxygen sensor market are Continental AG, CTS Corporation, Delphi Automotive LLP, Denso Corporation, Fujikura LTD, Robert Bosch GmbH, Spectra Premium Industries Inc, NGK Spark Plug CO., Ltd, Walker Products, Inc., Facet Srl, ERA SPA, Meat & Doria S.r.l., Analytical Industries Inc, Shaanxi Fortune Industries Co. Ltd, and Oxigraf, Inc., In October 2012, Continental AG launched three different products to build NOx (nitrogen oxide) sensors, canister purge solenoids and high temperature sensors at its Changchun, China plant. These products were launched with an aim to majorly control emission and exhaust, which was aimed to meet China’s automaker Euro 4 air emission regulations.
