COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has massively disrupted the global automotive industry, leading to major supply chain impediments and a decline in production targets due to government-imposed shutdowns. This has significantly impacted growth prospects for the two-wheeler suspension system market.
However, recent months have proven favorable for market growth. In India, for example, wholesale dispatches from two-wheeler companies to the domestic market expanded by 14% in September 2020, attributed to inventory refilling by OEMs in wake of stabilizing supply chains.
Likewise, production cycles across other markets are gradually reverting to normalcy. However, while growth is expected to remain positive, sluggishness is expected to prevail until 2021-end, as manufacturers grapple with addressing vast supply-demand disequilibria.
Competitive Landscape
The global two-wheeler suspension system market is interspersed with the presence of numerous regional and global level players. Some prominent players include Showa Corporation, ZF Friedrichshafen AG, KYB Corporation, Endurance Technologies Limited, Gabriel India Limited, BMW Group, WP Suspension GmbH, Ohlins Racing, Duro Shox Private Ltd, and Nitron Racing Shocks.
A combination of strategies, ranging from acquisitions, collaborations, capacity expansions, and product launches characterize the aforementioned players’ expansion tactics. For instance, in May 2020, Endurance Technologies acquired a 100% stake in Italian company Grimeca for acquiring its braking solution business.
Around the same time, ZF Friedrichshafen AG closed its acquisition of WABCO to expand its commercial vehicle technology business, with the latter functioning as an independent unit of the company.
Regarding product development, WP Suspension GmbH announced the launch of its WP XPLOR 6500 Cartridge motorbike, equipped with a closed cartridge technology, providing reduced cavitation risk and high longevity to the ride.
