Fuel Injection Systems Market Size & Forecast Report, 2015 - 2022

The global fuel injection systems market experienced remarkable growth in the past few years as a result of increasing environmental regulations and concerns relating to carbon emissions. The fuel injection market is anticipated to witness rapid growth due to consequent requirements for passenger cars, growing population, and better lifestyles. Fuel injections are important constituents in every automotive engine which controls and monitors the quantity of fuel incoming the engine cylinders by the necessities. The purpose of the fuel injection system is to enhance and regulate the air/fuel ratio which comes into the engine of vehicles. The fuel injection system comprises sensors and electronic components. It should be well regulated to take full advantage of the efficiency and engine power and to diminish the consumption of gases.

Gasoline direct injection is an innovative system of injection for gasoline engines and provides enhanced performances and huge reductions in fuel emission and consumption. Fuel injection systems of the cars having gasoline engines are generally secondary and gasoline is being inserted into the inlet port or inlet manifold instead of injecting straight into the combustion chambers. This process helps in ensuring that the fuel is mixed well with the air before its enters into the chambers. However, the majority of diesel engines implement the direct injection system. Indirect injection, diesel is directly made to enter into the cylinder that is filled with compressed air. Contemporary fuel injection systems along with controlling the movement of fuel, also offer supplementary functions which include pilot, multiple, rate scheduling (shaping), and post injections, which is estimated to contribute fundamentally to the market growth. Several other factors which are expected to be vital for the demand for global fuel injection systems include increased output, reliability, and efficiency. The global demand for the market is projected to increase as the fuel-injected engines are considerably stress-free to get going, not needing any choke, and save fuel.

As the diesel fuel injection systems market has witnessed growth, the market for passenger cars using diesel has also undergone a significant increase worldwide. Adding to it, since the fuel injection systems of 150cc and less have seen huge developments, it has given great opportunities to the two-wheelers for tapping into the market. Furthermore, additional developments in the global fuel injection systems market are expected to drive the demand for the overall market. However, factors including growing difficulties in service and huge costs of maintenance are anticipated to obstruct the global fuel injection systems market growth. The rise in hydrocarbons that are not burnt might also increase the rates of emission. This is expected to hamper the growth of the global fuel injection systems market. Furthermore, continuously fluctuating prices of raw materials are also expected to hamper the growth of Tier I suppliers.

The global fuel injection systems market is used in vehicles such as commercial, buses, two-wheelers, passengers, and heavy trucks. The passenger car segment witnessed the highest rate of growth due to the growing need for personal conveyance and increasing per capita income. Based on engine types, the market is segmented into diesel and gasoline, with overall preference given to gasoline technology as a result of environmental concerns and fuel efficiency. The fuel injection systems market has several technologies such as direct injection of diesel, direct injection of gasoline, and port injection. Additionally, based on components, fuel injections systems include pressure regulators, injectors, high-pressure pumps, and ECU.

The growing passenger cars demand in countries such as Mexico and Canada coupled with greater spending capacity is expected to be responsible for the economic growth of the North American market. Owing to the existence of multinational automotive OEMs in various countries across Europe such as Italy, Spain, Germany, and the UK have also witnessed increased demand in the fuel injection systems market. Countries in the Asia Pacific such as India, Australia, Japan, and China have also experienced huge improvements in fuel injection systems increasing the demand of the global market. Key industry players in the global fuel injection systems markets have undertaken steps such as mergers & acquisitions to support their market position. Prominent fuel injection systems market players include Delphi Automotive PLC, Continental AG, Denso Corporation, Keihien Corporation, Hitachi Limited, Ucal Fuel Systems Ltd., Magneti Marelli S.p.A., Robert Bosch GmbH, and Mikuni Corporation.
