Brazil Automotive Turbocharger Market Overview 2027

Brazil is the largest country in South America with a population of around 214.32 million. Brazil is also a leading producer of automobiles. In its present condition, many automobile companies use advanced technology like turbochargers due to strict government policies on the air pollution and emissions caused by automobiles. Turbochargers are centrifugal compressors driven by an exhaust gas turbine and are employed in engines to boost the charge air pressure. Turbocharger performance influences all important engine parameters, such as fuel economy, power, and emissions. In Brazil, the market growth of turbochargers increased with the increase in demand for diesel fuel engine cars. Many companies started supplying turbochargers to different automakers. In the Brazilian market, BorgWarner generally supplies turbochargers to Volkswagen models. Brazilian automobile companies are more reliable than the OEM turbocharger for high durability. This government policy resulted in an increase in the use of automotive turbochargers in Brazil.

According to the report titled Brazil Automotive Turbocharger Market Overview, 2027 the automotive turbocharger market of the country Brazil is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 6% in value market size by the end of the forecast period. In Brazil, different segments of turbocharger are available. On the basis of technology type, there are three types of turbochargers: Variable Geometry Turbocharger, Wastegate Turbocharger, and Electric Turbocharger. A Wastegate turbocharger uses a Wastegate valve to control the exhaust gas flow in the turbocharger. In Brazil, on the basis of vehicle type, there are two types of turbochargers: passenger vehicle turbochargers and commercial vehicle turbochargers. A commercial vehicle turbocharger is suitable for heavy vehicles like loading vans and trucks. On the basis of fuel type, two types of turbochargers are diesel fuel turbochargers and gasoline fuel turbochargers and Gasoline fuel turbocharger to have a low compression ratio. The OEM turbocharger and the aftermarket are two turbochargers on the basis of sales channel. Aftermarket turbochargers are of inferior quality and have low demand.

VGT is the turbocharger which provides a different effective aspect ratio as per the condition of the engine, and this is done by using adjustable vanes between the inlet and the turbine. The Wastegate turbocharger controls and limits the speed of the turbine. The Wastegate valve regulates the boost pressure provided by the turbocharger. An electric turbocharger uses an electric motor to move the turbocharger and is more suitable for turbines because exhaust gas is not used in it. VGT has the highest market share among the other two, and it is expected that during the forecasted period it will have the maximum market share. OEM turbochargers are manufactured using a standard material and their durability is high. It is provided to particular dealers only. Aftermarket turbochargers are manufactured using inferior quality materials and are demanded for replacement of damaged turbochargers. The market attractiveness of aftermarket turbochargers is expected to grow by 2027.

The diesel turbocharger is the turbocharger that is equipped in diesel engines, and with the combination of an intercooler, it improves the power and efficiency of the diesel engine. Gasoline automotive turbochargers are being driven by the increased penetration of small gasoline-powered passenger automobiles. It is expected that during the forecasted period, robust growth of diesel fuel turbochargers will take place. Passenger vehicle turbochargers are used by automakers due to the high restrictions by the government on the emission of carbon content, and customers are also attracted to the cars with turbochargers because it increases the durability of the engine. A commercial vehicle turbocharger is suitable for heavy-duty vehicles like trucks, and it boosts the engine at low speed. The commercial vehicle market is constantly increasing. The CAGR of a passenger vehicle turbocharger is expected to be high during the forecasted period.

In Brazil, for the growth of the automotive turbocharger, the key drivers are the government and people's focus on the protection of the environment; high demand for the automobile; advanced technology; and the easy availability of funding for new entrant firms. The growing market of EVs and the drawbacks of turbochargers like turbo lag, the heating problem and government policies on emissions are the big challenges for the growth of the automotive turbocharger market.

BorgWarner Celebrates the Production of 5 Million Turbochargers in Brazil. The plant in Itatiba, in the state of So Paulo, hits a major production milestone with the mission of further improving engine performance and efficiency. Local production of turbochargers for flex-fuel engines complements the product line.

The COVID-19 crisis has created uncertainty in the market, causing a slow-down in the supply chain, a fall in business confidence, and an increase in panic among people. The government has already announced total lockdown and temporary shutdown of industries, with the overall production and sales being adversely affected. Therefore, the turbocharger market will have a moderate dip in 2020 owing to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

The approach of the report:

This report consists of a combined approach of primary as well as secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and listing out the companies that are present in the market. The secondary research consists of third party sources such as press releases, annual report of companies, analysing the government generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources primary research was conducted by making telephonic interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducted trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this we have started doing primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting consumers in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us we have started verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.
