The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for lightweight vehicles, rising use of aluminum alloys in automotive manufacturing, growing automotive production volumes, expansion of global supply chains, and heightened focus on cost-effective mass production.

The die casting auto parts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $30.88 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth projected for the forecast period can be attributed to rising electric vehicle adoption, stricter government regulations on emission reduction, increasing demand for fuel-efficient vehicles, expansion of the automotive aftermarket, and a growing shift toward sustainable manufacturing. Key trends in the forecast period include technological advancements in die casting processes, innovations in lightweight alloy materials, developments in automation and robotics, investment in research and development, and the adoption of three-dimensional (3D) printing for tooling.

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the die casting auto parts market in the coming years. Electric vehicles (EVs) run on electric power stored in batteries rather than traditional gasoline or diesel engines. The rise in EV adoption is largely due to decreasing battery costs, which make these vehicles more affordable, encouraging more consumers to choose them over conventional gasoline-powered cars. Die casting auto parts play a crucial role in supporting electric vehicles by providing lightweight, high-strength aluminum and magnesium components for battery housings, motor casings, and structural elements. These components contribute to better energy efficiency, performance, and durability, while meeting the precision and reliability demands of modern EV design. For example, according to Cox Automotive, a U.S.-based system software company, revised data for 2023 shows that EV sales reached 1,212,758 units, marking a 49% increase compared to 2022, with a 7.3% growth in 2024 to 1,301,411 units. This growth in EV adoption is driving the die casting auto parts market forward.

Key players in the die casting auto parts market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as advanced multi-cylinder clamping systems, to enhance precision, efficiency, and production of large and complex automotive components. These advanced clamping systems, which use multiple synchronized cylinders to evenly close the mold, help reduce die stress, improve part accuracy, and enable larger, more complex molds, thereby increasing production efficiency. For instance, in September 2024, YIZUMI Machinery Co., Ltd., a China-based manufacturing company, introduced its NEXT² series 2-platen die casting machine. The machine features the RAPTOR multi-cylinder locking unit, Dolphin intelligent control system, and Yi-Cast high-speed injection unit. Designed to meet the increasing demand for large, high-precision automotive components, especially for new energy vehicles, the system improves energy efficiency, production speed, and manufacturing precision, while overcoming long-standing challenges such as prolonged die locking times and uneven pressure distribution in large-scale die casting.

In March 2025, Sandhar Technologies Ltd., an India-based automotive components company, acquired Sundaram-Clayton’s Aluminium Die Casting Businesses for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allows Sandhar Technologies to expand its die-casting operations, enhance its manufacturing capabilities, and strengthen its position in the market. By consolidating operations, the company aims to achieve greater efficiency, economies of scale, and optimized resource utilization, ultimately reinforcing its strategic position in the automotive industry and driving long-term growth and shareholder value. Sundaram-Clayton Ltd., based in India, specializes in producing die-cast automotive parts.

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.

This die casting auto parts market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

Die casting auto parts are components made by injecting molten metal into precision-engineered molds under high pressure. This process ensures excellent dimensional accuracy, smooth surfaces, and robust structural integrity. They deliver lightweight yet durable performance for automotive applications, while also improving fuel efficiency, lowering overall vehicle weight, and enhancing resistance to wear and corrosion.

The primary types of die-casting auto parts include aluminum die casting, magnesium die casting, zinc die casting, and other varieties. Aluminum die casting involves shaping molten aluminum into complex, lightweight, and durable parts using precision molds. These parts are produced through manufacturing methods such as high-pressure die casting, low-pressure die casting, gravity die casting, vacuum die casting, and expendable die casting, and are employed in various vehicles including passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles. They are applied in areas such as engine components, transmission parts, chassis and suspension elements, electrical housings, body parts, and interior components, and are used by industries including automotive, commercial vehicles, electric vehicles, aerospace and aviation, and consumer electronics.
