Press Release

Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.5% through 2030F

The global Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market is expected to be led by North America, driven by Environmental Considerations and Urbanization and Rising Disposable Incomes during the forecast period 2026-2030F


According to TechSci Research report, “Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F, The Global Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market was valued at USD 14.9 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 17.4 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 2.5% through 2030. Lead-acid batteries are known for their cost-effectiveness, long service life, and wide availability, making them a preferred choice for both OEMs and consumers, especially in conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

Another driver is the rising emphasis on vehicle electrification, including hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles, which still rely on lead-acid batteries for certain functions like powering auxiliary systems. While lithium-ion batteries dominate in fully electric vehicles, lead-acid batteries are crucial in hybrid and micro-hybrid models, as they offer a more economical alternative for non-propulsion needs.

Additionally, regulatory pressures on automakers to meet fuel efficiency and emission standards are pushing the industry toward more efficient battery technologies. Lead-acid batteries, with their established performance record and ability to comply with regulatory requirements, continue to be a critical component in meeting these mandates, especially in markets where cost remains a significant consideration. Furthermore, the extensive recycling infrastructure for lead-acid batteries contributes to the market’s growth by minimizing environmental impact and providing cost-effective solutions for battery manufacturers, creating a circular economy within the industry.

Based on Type, Enhanced Flooded Batteries segment dominated the Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market in 2024 and maintain its leadership throughout the forecast period, due to its advanced features and increased demand from vehicles equipped with start-stop systems. EFBs are designed to handle the frequent charge and discharge cycles required by start-stop technology, making them highly suitable for modern vehicles that experience frequent engine shutdowns and restarts to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.

EFBs are an upgrade from traditional flooded batteries, offering better performance, longer life, and higher charge acceptance. These features make them ideal for the automotive industry, particularly for passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles with start-stop technology. Unlike standard flooded batteries, EFBs can withstand the high number of cycles that come with these systems without significant degradation in performance. This durability and improved efficiency make EFBs increasingly popular among automakers, as they help optimize fuel efficiency while reducing the overall environmental footprint of vehicles.

The demand for EFBs is also being driven by the growing emphasis on sustainability and the need to reduce carbon emissions. As regulations tighten globally, automakers are incorporating more energy-efficient systems, such as start-stop technology, which directly impacts the need for advanced battery solutions like EFBs. Furthermore, EFBs are more cost-effective than higher-end AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries, making them an attractive option for mass-market vehicles, where affordability is crucial.

The automotive lead-acid battery market has also seen significant growth in regions such as Europe and North America, where start-stop systems are becoming increasingly standard in new vehicles. The shift toward EFBs is particularly notable in these regions, as automakers aim to meet fuel economy and emission standards while offering consumers reliable and affordable battery options. As a result, the EFB segment is expected to continue dominating the automotive lead-acid battery market, driven by advancements in battery technology and growing demand for energy-efficient vehicles.  

Based on region, Asia Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region for the Automotive Lead-Acid Battery Market, driven by rapid industrialization, increasing vehicle production, and rising vehicle ownership in key countries such as China, India, and Japan. The region has become a manufacturing hub for automotive components, including lead-acid batteries, due to the presence of major automotive manufacturers and suppliers.

The demand for automotive lead-acid batteries in Asia Pacific is further fueled by the growing adoption of start-stop technology in vehicles to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. This technology requires advanced batteries like Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) and Enhanced Flooded Batteries (EFB), which are becoming more prevalent in the region's automotive market. Additionally, the growing middle-class population in countries like China and India is driving the demand for passenger cars, boosting the need for reliable and cost-effective battery solutions.

Government initiatives supporting the automotive industry, such as subsidies and incentives for vehicle manufacturing, alongside the increasing number of automotive OEMs establishing production facilities in the region, also contribute to the growth of the automotive lead-acid battery market. Moreover, the high recycling rate of lead-acid batteries in Asia Pacific adds to their sustainability appeal, encouraging their continued use in conventional vehicles. As vehicle production and sales in Asia Pacific continue to rise, the region is expected to maintain its leadership in the automotive lead-acid battery market, becoming a key contributor to the industry's growth over the coming years.
