Automotive & Transportation Market Research & Consulting

Fixed fee engagements Bottom-up sector models 2025 base year, 2035 horizon

Automotive and transportation markets are being rewritten by three forces at once: electrification, safety mandates and the move from owning vehicles to buying mobility as a service. This page brings together the 30 Douglas Insights studies that size those shifts, from the parts inside a car to the fleets, networks and depots that keep goods and people moving. Buyers come here to answer practical questions: how many vehicles will carry a component, what it will sell for, and which rule or programme changes the answer. The largest markets covered are tyres, worth USD 275 billion in 2025 and analysed in the Tyre Market study, EV batteries at USD 164 billion, motorcycles at USD 136 billion and driver assistance, sized in the ADAS Market report at USD 46.8 billion. The fastest growth sits at the edges of the industry: drone delivery grows 29.2% a year, as the Commercial Drone Delivery Services Market report shows, followed by EV charging network operations at 18.5% and car rental management software at 13.0%. Sub-industries cover automotive components, aftermarket and services, commercial vehicles and trucks, EV charging infrastructure, last-mile logistics, marine and shipping equipment, parking and mobility infrastructure, and rail transport systems. Every study is built bottom-up from units and prices, with ten-year forecasts to 2035.

Answers at a glance

Questions the Automotive & Transportation practice answers

How is component demand forecast?

From vehicle production schedules multiplied by content per vehicle, by powertrain and platform. When electrification shifts the bill of materials, the model shows which components gain and which disappear.

Do you run electrification scenarios?

Yes. Powertrain mix is a scenario variable in every automotive model, so demand can be tested against faster and slower adoption paths with the policy assumptions stated.

Can you benchmark automotive suppliers?

Yes. Supplier studies compare share, pricing, capacity and program wins from filings, trade data and interviews, structured for sourcing and competitive teams.
