Abstract, Snapshot, Market Analysis & Market Definition: Global Automotive Interior Leather Market


The global Automotive Interior Leather market size is projected to reach US$ 49.92 billion by 2026, from US$ 34.21 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 6.5% during 2021-2026. Rising automotive manufacturing activities, especially in emerging economies of Asia Pacific such as China, and India, is one of the key trends escalating market growth. Moreover, surging demand for artificial/synthetic leather in cheaper motor vehicle variants is poised to provide an upthrust to the market during the forecast period.

Asia Pacific is observing a boom in manufacturing in the automotive industry. China and India are the sights of high growth rates in the region. Strong GDP growth rate, rising disposable income of the populace, and government support are revving up the production of motor vehicles in these countries. Moreover, their demand in lower tier cities is likely to augment with declining prices.

SAIC Motor, Dongfeng, FAW, and Changan Automobile Group are major domestic auto manufacturers of China. Other manufacturers include Beijing Automotive Group, Brilliance Automotive, BYD, Chery, Greely, Jianghuai (JAC), Great Wall, and Guangzhou Automobile Group.
Widening base of middle class population and cheaper availability of labour and other resources are supplementing the growth of the motor vehicle manufacturing industry in Asia Pacific. The region is also witnessing investments from key players such as Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, Fiat S.p.A, Ford Motor Company, MazdaMotor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., and Jaguar.

There has been a considerable shift towards synthetic/artificial variants, which are considered cheaper alternative of genuine leather. Their cost of production is less than that of natural leather and also has an easier manufacturing process. Growing prominence of artificial leather is leading to increase in investments in the sector, which will subsequently help improve overall product penetration.

Steps involved in manufacturing of natural leather, especially tanning, lead to pollution of nearby surroundings. This is another major reason leading to the shift in preference toward synthetic leather. Stringent environmental laws and government regulations are playing a vital role in promoting demand for synthetic leather.
