      Automated Trucks Demand to Increase by 22% Annually Through 2031

      A Fact.MR survey on sales of automated trucks offers detailed analysis on the key growth drivers and trends affecting demand through 2031. The survey also provides insights into the competitive landscape of global automated trucks sales, identifying key market players and analyzing the impact of their growth strategies

      NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Fact.MR – A Market Research and Competitive Intelligence Provider: The global automated trucks market is anticipated to grow at 22% CAGR between 2021 and 2031 to reach valuation of US$ 1.5 Bn by 2031.The market surpassed US$ 210 Mn in valuation in 2020. Surging emphasis on improving road safety by reducing the cases of accidents due to human error is facilitating adoption of automated systems in trucks.

      Popularity of automated vehicles is growing due to rising focus on making transportation and logistics smarter. These developments also will help in reducing the risk of road accidents. As per the study, sales of automated trucks integrated with light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology are on the rise to reduce the risk of accidents even in complicated nooks and turns of roads.

      The integration of hardware components such as LiDAR, infrared radars, sophisticated movement sensors, cameras, and complex algorithms will enable the automated trucks market to gain traction. Fact.MR has forecast the overall demand in the market to rise by 7x through the assessment period.

      During COVID-19 outbreak, the market registered high growth since focus on social distance encouraged several studies on how to distribute vehicles with minimum human intervention.

      As per a recent study by the American Trucking Association (ATA), the transportation industry would need to employ approximately 60,000 drivers across the U.S. to cater to the surging demand registered nationwide. This gap in demand is expected to increase to 160,000 by 2028.

      Besides this, focus on curbing carbon emission from vehicles will create conducive environment for sales of automated trucks. According to the Geography of Transport Systems, the share of transportation to global CO2 emissions is rising. The transportation industry is responsible for 22% of carbon emission recorded worldwide with advanced economies like the U.S. accounting for nearly one-fourth of this share.

      To address the soaring concern, the transport sector is gradually shifting towards automation. This also will create attractive opportunities for the growth of the automated trucks market.

      "The use of automated trucks is increasing in response to the improving penetration of automation technologies in the automotive sector and the growing need to improve logistical operations by eliminating delays due to unanticipated events such as accidents," said a Fact.MR analyst.
