The growing adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles is also boosting the market, as these vehicles need specially designed wheel bearings that reduce friction and offer greater durability. Additionally, the rising availability of aftermarket products online has made it easier for consumers to purchase wheel bearings, further driving market demand during the forecast period.

The increasing average age of vehicles on the road is also contributing to a greater need for frequent maintenance and replacement of parts, including wheel bearings, which is helping to fuel growth in the automotive wheel bearing aftermarket.

Key players in the automotive wheel bearing market are developing hybrid automotive ball bearings with higher load capacities and improved adaptability to meet the demands of more efficient vehicles. Sales of these hybrid bearings are expected to grow in the coming years, positively impacting the overall industry.
