Racing Simulator Market to Grow with a CAGR of 14.81% through 2030

Growing demand for immersive e-sports experiences, increasing adoption of advanced simulation technologies, and rising popularity of professional racing training using simulators are the factors driving the market in the forecast period 2026-2030.

According to TechSci Research report, “Racing Simulator Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2020-2030F”, The Global Racing Simulator Market was valued at USD 494.83 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1133.27 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 14.81% during the forecast period.

 The global racing simulator market is shifting from a niche hobby to a diversified ecosystem that spans consumer entertainment, professional driver development, and enterprise R&D. Growth is propelled by the rise of venue-based sim centers and motorsport academies that offer pay-per-session access, widening participation without high personal capex. Automakers and racing series are using simulators as marketing and engineering tools licensing tracks and vehicles, running fan engagement activations, and validating cockpit ergonomics, tire strategies, and HMI concepts through digital twins. On the consumer side, content pipelines and season passes create recurring revenue as new cars, circuits, and rule sets refresh gameplay, while creator marketplaces for mods, liveries, and telemetry overlays extend product lifespan and community stickiness. Leasing models and modular rigs reduce ownership barriers for enthusiasts and training centers, and integrated coaching using data logging, video sync, and structured curricula turns seat time into measurable skill gains. Corporate demand for team-building and STEM programs is adding institutional buyers, and broadcast-quality overlays make simulator events sponsor-friendly for brands seeking measurable impressions. The competitive landscape favors interoperable ecosystems, with peripherals, rigs, and analytics software designed to mix-and-match, enabling users to upgrade incrementally. As monetization matures and B2B use cases expand, the market is poised for sustained, multi-segment growth.
