The gravity die casting automotive parts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.86 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing production of electric and hybrid vehicles, growing adoption of lightweight materials, stricter environmental and emission standards, rising demand for cost-efficient manufacturing processes, and continued expansion of the automotive sector. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in automation and robotics in casting, innovation in sustainable and green casting methods, development of hybrid manufacturing that combines die casting with additive processes, integration of digital simulation and digital twin tools in part design, and innovations in tool and mold design for modularity.

The growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to drive the expansion of the gravity die casting automotive parts market. Electric vehicles, which are powered fully or partially by electricity stored in rechargeable battery packs instead of conventional internal combustion engines, are gaining traction due to increasing environmental awareness and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As consumers and industries shift toward cleaner transportation options, the demand for EVs continues to rise. Gravity die casting automotive parts are critical in supporting EVs by providing lightweight yet high-strength aluminum components for essential systems, such as battery housings that protect lithium-ion battery packs while reducing vehicle weight by 10-30%, electric motor casings that ensure optimal heat dissipation and electromagnetic shielding, and structural chassis elements that enhance vehicle integrity and range through weight reduction. For example, in February 2024, the U.S. Department of Energy reported significant year-over-year growth in monthly EV sales, with peak sales surpassing 100,000 vehicles in 2023. This growing demand for EVs is propelling the gravity die casting automotive parts market forward.

The increasing adoption of aluminum and magnesium is also expected to drive growth in the gravity die casting automotive parts market. These lightweight metals are increasingly used in automotive manufacturing to reduce vehicle weight while maintaining structural strength and performance. Their adoption is rising due to their ability to enhance vehicle fuel efficiency, meet stricter emissions regulations, and provide the strength, corrosion resistance, and thermal performance necessary for critical automotive components. Aluminum and magnesium support gravity die casting automotive parts by offering excellent fluidity for smooth mold filling under gravity, quick cooling properties for precise dimensions, and a combination of lightness and strength ideal for producing durable automotive components. For instance, in July 2025, the United States Geological Survey reported that primary magnesium consumption rose by 4% in 2022, driven by a 9% increase in its use for die castings and other structural products. Therefore, the growing adoption of aluminum and magnesium is fueling the growth of the gravity die casting automotive parts market.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The swift increase in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly affecting the machinery sector by increasing costs for steel, hydraulic systems, and precision bearings critical components often imported from tariff-affected regions. Manufacturers of construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery now face squeezed margins, as many long-term contracts prevent immediate price adjustments. The uncertainty has also delayed investment in automation and smart machinery technologies, slowing productivity gains. To adapt, firms are accelerating local supplier development, redesigning products to use alternative materials, and leveraging predictive maintenance to extend equipment lifespans amid higher replacement costs.
