Market Driver

The high adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Europe, the US, and APAC, especially in China and Japan, is driven by strict regulations on carbon emissions. Sales of EVs in the US grew by 45% from June 2021 to June 2022. Many automakers are developing new EV models, and manufacturers are relocating to China due to its market potential and government subsidies.

In April 2021, China had 868,000 public EV charging stations. Additionally, companies like Toyota are launching new plug-in hybrid vehicles. With the growing demand, firms like SKF Group are investing in energy-efficient ball bearings for EVs, boosting the global bearings market.

Market Challenges

• Bearings are mainly made from steel and alloys, and fluctuating prices of these materials significantly impact production costs. This volatility makes it hard for manufacturers to plan pricing and long-term investments. The pandemic has disrupted supply chains, increasing raw material costs, especially steel and aluminum.
• Rising raw material costs, trade tariffs, and supply chain issues are pushing steel prices higher, affecting manufacturing expenses. Aluminum prices ha

ve also risen due to energy costs and the Russia-Ukraine war. These cost increases may lead to higher bearing prices, affecting affordability and demand, and potentially disrupting the entire supply chain.
