Automotive Logistics Market Analysis

The Global Automotive Logistics Market size is estimated at USD 317.29 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 437.80 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.65% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The COVID-19 problem has significantly impacted numerous industries, including tourism, healthcare, and retail. Due to the pandemic's extensive disruption of its supply chain, the automotive industry has also been severely impacted. The health issue continues to significantly influence the automotive industry despite a gradual lifting of government restrictions. With the automotive industry continually evolving, logistics are getting complex. Automotive companies are looking toward supply chain strategies to exploit new market opportunities, reduce costs, and maintain competitive advantage.

• Additionally, the introduction of electric vehicles is projected to offer a key uplift to the global automotive logistics market. The players operating in the logistics industry also offer warehousing and inventory management services to OEMs and Tier I and Tier II component manufacturers. The demand for these services depends on vehicle production.
• Hence, the regions with more vehicle production are likely to have a significant share in the automotive warehousing sector. In addition to warehousing and distribution, logistics service providers (LSPs) also offer assembly services for OEMs.
• Global car makers are disrupting the traditional supply chain with innovative transport solutions. For instance, in January 2019, Renault announced plans to start a home delivery service in Russia for vehicles sold via its online showroom. Promoting the online showroom is part of Renault's sales development strategy in Russia. It has already sold 27,000 finished vehicles via the site, primarily Renault Kaptur and Renault Duster units.
• While roll-on/roll-off (ro-ro) is the traditional method of shipping finished vehicles, containerization is becoming increasingly viable as the automotive industry decentralizes and introduces more EVs. Growth in China and Southeast Asia offers shipping and logistics companies good opportunities.
• Furthermore, the use of containers on developing routes out of China is also being adopted, especially by rail between China and Europe. Southeast Asia is considered one of the favorable regions to make containerization feasible, as the region witnesses growth in vehicle sales and demand for logistics services.
• Following the free trade agreement signed in the ASEAN markets, including the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia, trade-in finished vehicles has grown. CFR Rinkens, a vehicle transportation service provider, won a contract to ship BMWs from Europe to Vietnam in containers.
