The Global Fire Truck Market was valued at USD 8.7 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% to reach USD 16.9 billion by 2035.

The market is gaining steady momentum as rapid urbanization continues to increase population density, vertical construction, and industrial activity, all of which elevate fire risk and emergency preparedness requirements. Municipal bodies and industrial zones are allocating higher budgets toward modern firefighting fleets to safeguard expanding residential areas, commercial complexes, and infrastructure assets. Fire authorities are increasingly prioritizing fleet modernization to align with evolving safety mandates, emission norms, and performance expectations. Many departments are retiring legacy vehicles that no longer meet operational reliability or compliance benchmarks and are investing in advanced apparatus with enhanced pumping capacity, extended reach, and improved crew safety systems. Modern fire trucks deliver greater reliability, reduced downtime, and better integration of digital technologies, helping agencies strengthen emergency response readiness. The market is also benefiting from rising adoption of connected systems that support real-time diagnostics, situational awareness, and efficient resource deployment, enabling fire services to respond faster and operate more effectively in complex emergency scenarios.

The pumper category accounted for 43% share in 2025 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6% from 2026 to 2035. Demand is supported by advancements in pump efficiency, improved vehicle handling, and the ability to operate effectively in dense urban environments. Replacement of aging units and growing interest in cost-effective, multipurpose firefighting vehicles continue to support this segment’s expansion.

The internal combustion engine-based fire trucks held a share of 78% in 2025 and are projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% through 2035. This dominance is supported by established drivetrain technology, widespread fuel availability, and the ability to deliver sustained power output for demanding firefighting operations. Ongoing enhancements in emissions control and onboard monitoring systems are helping these vehicles remain compliant with tightening environmental standards.

U.S. Fire Truck Market generated USD 3.19 billion in 2025. Replacement of aging fleets remains a primary growth driver as departments address rising maintenance expenses, safety gaps, and compliance with updated operational standards. Funding initiatives at multiple levels are accelerating procurement of modern emergency vehicles, supporting faster replacement cycles and higher investment in firefighter protection and vehicle reliability.

Key companies active in the Global Fire Truck Market include Rosenbauer, Oshkosh, REV Group, Morita, Ziegler, Bronto Skylift, Metz Fire & Rescue, KME Fire Apparatus, IVECO (Magirus), and HME Ahrens. Manufacturers in the Global Fire Truck Market are reinforcing their market position through continuous product innovation, customization, and long-term service offerings. Companies are investing in advanced chassis design, digital control systems, and modular configurations to meet diverse operational needs across regions.
