Report Description

Middle East & Africa SUV market is predicted to grow in coming years due to the increasing logistic and travel activities in the country.

Middle East & Africa SUV Market Overview
The SUV market in the Middle East & Africa is growing due to the increasing popularity for sports utility vehicles among many consumers in the region. The demand for SUVs is also increasing due to the preference of consumers towards comfort, more spacious, and advanced safety features. Other benefits of SUVs are higher ground clearance and commanding driver seating position and robustness as well as off-road driving capability which provides advantage over other vehicle types. The SUV market is expected to grow in the coming years. Additionally, mid-size SUVs have the largest market share among all types of SUVs. These SUVs are available in multiple engine options with gasoline (naturally aspirated and turbocharged) and diesel (some plug-in hybrid variants for better fuel economy). Furthermore, these SUVs also offered various transmission options, such as automatic transmission (AT), continuously variable transmission (CVT), and dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Moreover, with the development of autonomous technology, the SUV segment is anticipated to grow at higher rate in Middle East & Africa region.

Middle East & Africa SUV Market
Challenge

Underdeveloped Aftermarket Services
As with all industries, the automotive aftermarket sector has seen fluctuation in market size to ups and downs over the past two years due to the pandemic and delayed in trade activities. In addition, a decrease in vehicle miles traveled (VMT), trade restrictions, and a decrease in automotive aftermarket services demand has led to slower vehicle sales and reduction in customer base in the Middle East & Africa. In addition, during the pandemic, several automotive manufacturers experienced longer working time to assemble their vehicles due to parts shortages, especially microprocessor and semiconductor shortages. This slowed down the growth of the SUV vehicle industry. Overall, the growth rate of the SUV vehicle market in the Middle East & Africa is expected to be slower in the initial years.

Middle East & Africa SUV Market Trend

Increasing Penetration of Electric SUV Segment
The Middle East & Africa region is witnessing a global shift towards zero-emission vehicles over environmental concerns, and emission regulations. As the technology in the automotive sector advances, the demand for more advanced electric SUVs is increasing. Also, the shift towards larger and heavier cars has caused the SUV segment to double in size over the past decade. To meet this demand, many manufacturing businesses have invested in the vehicle manufacturing and charging infrastructure industry in the MEA countries over the past few years. Additionally, automobile manufacturers are introducing new eco-friendly models and hybrid models to drive the sales of SUVs in Middle East & Africa. For example, MG motors introduced the all-electric SUV MG ZS EV to the UAE region in 2020. According to the International Energy Agency, approximately 40% of annual car sales worldwide are attributed to the SUV segment, demonstrating a strong shift towards SUVs. In conclusion, the adoption of new technologies is leading to an increase in the Middle East & African SUV market in the coming years.

Moreover, the local manufacturers can reduce costs, increase the efficiency of the supply chain, and meet customer-centric requirements to help increase the overall sales of the region.
