Electric motors perform a variety of functions that were formerly consigned to cranks, gears and levers. They are typically found in anything that has an electrical movement or solenoid function - such as window-lifts, fuel pumps, mirror and headlamp adjusters, ABS, Clutches, Automated Manual Transmissions, Parking Brakes and Steering Systems. The trend toward electric cars mean vehicles will require more small motors, too.

It is estimated that some of today's premium vehicles feature over 100 electric motors carrying out a variety of functions. Although, electric motors have long since been used to power certain vehicle componentry, such as wiper systems, these markets have matured. Meanwhile, growth markets are appearing. For example, manufacturers predict significant growth with gearbox actuators (used for double clutch automated transmissions, actuation for transfer cases and torque distribution differential gears), power steering motors and electric machines for hybrid vehicles.

Manufacturers also expect to see more DC electric motors used in automotive interiors in the future, since there is a general trend towards more electrification. This means that many manual functions, even in the lower vehicle segments, will increasingly be electrically operated. Meanwhile, the use of actuators is also on the rise. Particularly when it comes to convenience features, such as backrest adjusters, the new electric actuators are becoming increasingly prevalent.

In the power window department, manufacturers report a growing need for smaller, lighter motors to fit in the increasingly slim doors of modern cars. On the wiper motor front, manufacturers note that reductions in weight and size as well as the improvement of exterior appearance are priorities for windscreen washer systems. Manufacturers of brushless DC motors are also pushing to develop smaller motors yet maintain power and speed. Overall, it is clear that the driving force behind market growth is motorists’ insatiable demand for safety, comfort, economy, a clean environment and overall quality of driving.The report “Automotive Electric Motors - Global Sector Overview and Forecast (Q1 2022 Update)” provides a comprehensive overview of the Global OE Electric Motors sector, major suppliers, top 14 markets, technology trends and market size forecasts.
