The automotive coolant market size was valued at USD 7.59 Billion in 2023. The automotive coolant industry is projected to grow from USD 7.89 Billion in 2024 to USD 10.39 billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.49% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

Automotive Coolant Market Trends

The growing usage of ethylene glycol in the automotive industry is driving market growth.

Market CAGR for automotive coolant is driven by the rising demand for ethylene glycol in the automotive industry. Ethylene glycol has a significantly lower melting point than water, which keeps engines of ethylene from freezing in the winter and works as a coolant to avoid overheating in the summer. Also, ethylene glycol is used in vehicles to absorb combustion heat which is expected to generate lucrative opportunities for the automotive coolant market revenue.

Automobile manufacturers are launching newer brands and products to offer customers customized automotive coolant and lubricant solutions, enhancing the automotive coolant market's share. Various OEMs are investing in the country through either joint ventures with introduced players or after FDI norms have been invested directly in setting up their production units or expanding their sales and dealership networks across the country. For instance, in December 2021, ExxonMobil announced that it had finalized corporate plans, which include increasing its spending to USD 15 billion on greenhouse gas emission-reduction assignments over the next six years while keeping disciplined capital acquisitions in its industry-leading portfolio.

In addition, the increasing number of HVAC equipment in manufacturing industries is expected to impact market growth positively. Thus, the factors above are expected to drive the market size over the projected period. There are certain restraints and challenges faced which will hinder market growth
Automotive Coolant Market Segment Insights
Automotive Coolant Product Insights

The automotive coolant market segmentation by product is ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerin, and others. Ethylene glycol segment holds the largest market share in terms of market revenue.
