The global off-highway (OHW) equipment industry enters 2026 amid a complex and evolving macroeconomic environment characterized by geopolitical uncertainty, energy price volatility, and shifting trade dynamics. While the baseline outlook suggests moderate global GDP growth of about 3%, downside scenarios driven by war, supply chain disruptions, hig...

The rapid rise of electric vehicles (EVs) is intensifying the need for a robust, accessible charging infrastructure. Enabled by IoT integration, EVs are becoming a smarter alternative to conventional ICE vehicles. Expanding fast-charging stations along highways and at key destinations is critical to alleviating range anxiety, ensuring seamless jour...

Over 21.6 million units of light-duty electric vehicles (EVs) were sold worldwide in 2025, representing a 23.5% year-over-year (YoY) growth. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) accounted for 66.8% of all EVs sold, while plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) accounted for 33.2%. The PHEV share declined by 3% in 2025. The global EV penetration in the...

When hydrogen gained traction in the late 2010s, Latin America was identified as a region with high growth potential. The region already generates a high percentage of its electricity from renewable energy (mainly hydropower), it has significant solar PV and wind potential that could be exploited, and production costs are forecasted to be globally ...

The convergence of connectivity, artificial intelligence (AI), video intelligence, electrification, regulatory digitization, and data-driven operational optimization is profoundly changing the global truck telematics and fleet management market. What was once a fragmented market centered primarily on GPS tracking and basic fleet visibility has evol...

The global automotive aftermarket for light vehicles (≤6T GVWR) continues to demonstrate resilience despite moderating momentum in new vehicle sales. With a base year of 2025, this study evaluates market trends through 2030, providing a global perspective with region-specific insights for North America (Canada and the United States), Europe, Chin.....

Geopolitics, trade wars, and past semiconductor shocks have turned global, cost‑optimized supply chains into a structural risk, pushing OEMs and Tier Is toward regional hubs, near‑shoring, and local‑for‑local manufacturing to build resilience rather than pure cost efficiency. Europe and the ASEAN region have been the worst hit due to the co...

This report examines the cascading impact of the 2026 US–Iran War on the global automotive industry, spanning supply chain disruptions, commodity price shocks, production forecasts, and shifting consumer demand across major markets.
