Market Overview

Vehicle Ignition coils also called spark coils, produce the high voltage needed to ignite the air and gasoline mixture in the compression chamber, which will help the vehicle's movement. The ignition systems are reliable, and it is designed in a way that they will transform 12-voltage power into a higher voltage to create an electric spark. These ignition coils help for the smooth operation of the engine. The ignition coil needs a mechanical contact breaker and capacitor. Due to new advancements in technology nowadays electronic ignition systems utilized a power transistor to provide pulses to the vehicle ignition coil. These factors are boosting the market growth for the vehicle ignition coil market. The forecast for the vehicle ignition system sector will be enhanced by the rapid incorporation of cutting-edge ignition technologies. Advanced ignition technologies like coil-on-plug, direct, and smart ignition systems are expected to see a sharp increase in industry use. The technologies mentioned above are designed to increase engine performance overall, decrease emissions, and improve fuel efficiency. To do this, California-based Transient Plasma Systems (TPS) created a cutting-edge plasma-based ignition system in June 2022 that can increase fuel combustion efficiency by up to 20%.

Driving Factors

The increasing popularity of reducing powertrains and turbocharged engines increases the need for reliable ignition coil systems. For these engines to provide the most power with the least number of emissions and fuel consumption, exact control over ignition timing and spark intensity is necessary. Premium ignition coil systems are becoming more and more in demand as performance-oriented automobiles like sports cars and high-performance sedans gain popularity. The market for high-end ignition coil products is driven by these vehicles, which depend on modern ignition technology to ensure optimal engine performance and responsiveness.

Restraining Factors

Conventional automotive ignition systems are experiencing pressure from the growing sustainability movement and the shift to electric vehicles (EVs), that run on batteries instead of traditional combustion engines and don't require conventional ignition systems. The market for traditional ignition systems may see a decline as the market for EVs grows.

Market Segmentation

The vehicle ignition coil market share is classified into type, vehicle, and sales channel.

• The coil-on-plug segment is expected to hold the largest share of the vehicle ignition coil market during the forecast period.   

Based on the type, the vehicle ignition coil market is categorized into coil-on-plug, distributor based, distributor less, and others. Among these, the coil-on-plug segment is expected to hold the largest share of the vehicle ignition coil market during the forecast period. The purpose of coil-on-plug systems is to effectively disperse the ignition spark to the fuel within the combustion chamber. It repeatedly applies between thirty and sixty thousand volts directly to the spark plug every minute. The connection between the coil and spark plugs is made by the coil-on-plug boot. Because it allows for minimal voltage loss from the coil to the pin, it is predicted that this sector will continue to have the biggest market share. It can also be utilized in conjunction with injector control to have the ECU perform a misfire diagnosis because it requires fewer connections and does away with the distributor rotor to cap the air gap.

• The passenger car segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period.   

Based on the vehicle, the vehicle ignition coil market is categorized into passenger car, light commercial vehicle, heavy commercial vehicle. Among these, the passenger car segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing speed at which passenger cars are produced. To ensure smooth engine running, internal combustion engines depend on ignition systems to start combustion. The demand for dependable and cutting-edge ignition systems is constant in the passenger car market as consumers want greater fuel economy, less emissions, and enhanced engine performance.

• The aftermarket segment is expected to hold a significant share of the vehicle ignition coil market during the forecast period.
