The global automotive industry is going through a major transition. Advances in automation and artificial intelligence have generated key challenges and opportunities. However, with the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the situation for automotive actuator manufacturers has become dire owing to extended disruptions in supply chains and considerable downtime at production facilities.
The massive impact of the outbreak on China for materials and parts production has made the industry vulnerable. Increased pressure to outsource or offshore supply chain operations will have a substantial effect on the automotive actuators market throughout the pandemic. Emergency cost cutting measures coupled with supply chain disruptions has put a sudden halt on manufacturing processes. Demand is likely to gradually recover after the pandemic, driven by the move towards automated transport.
“Top automotive OEMs including Ford, GM, Daimler, and Toyota, are transitioning to self-driving technologies to enable advancements in transport. Automotive actuators will be widely used for automated cars, which will cause the demand for automotive actuators in the near future to grow substantially.” says the FACT.MR analyst.

Automotive actuators Market – Leading Constraints
- Fast wear and tear of automotive actuators will restrain market growth in the near future.
- High costs of development for automotive actuator technologies also hinders market development.
Anticipated Market Impact of COVID-19
A growing number of manufacturers have been forced by the outbreak to bring down production activities in facilities globally. The shortage of essential components from China has put a dent in key manufacturing operations. With low-cost countries such as China being hit hard by the pandemic, the industry is likely to face delays in terms of delivery schedules.
Also, the pandemic has eaten into automotive sales by around 80%, which has had a major impact on the demand for automotive actuators. Companies will have to invest in contingency plans to mitigate losses during this period. However, the overall effect of the outbreak is still largely uncertain as the after-effects continue to ripple through the supply chain.
