The Global Automotive Wiring Harness Market accounted to US$ 47.08 Bn in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.27% during the forecast period 2019 – 2027, to account to US$ 68.18 Bn by 2027.

It is believed that there are more than a billion cars are on the road worldwide. Also, people have been keen on keeping cars for a longer time with them than ever before and therefore, the expenditures on the aesthetics and design of vehicles are expected to be more than ever before. Previously, automotive wiring harness was considered to be the most overlooked suspension components in the cars. However, gaining importance for fuel efficiencies while driving and surging demands for smoother rides have translated into healthy growth for wire harness products in the cars. Currently, the automotive wiring harness market is experiencing a steady growth that is attributed to numerous factors. The most significant factors that have impacted the growth of this industry are more disposable incomes with consumers and consequently the number of cars on the roads; poor condition of roads in the developing and the underdeveloped economies and the parallel advancements made in the consumer products industry.

Over the years, the automobile industry has experienced occasional highs and lows as a result of the changes in the economy, weather conditions, and the interest from new investors. The consumer spending on automotive components and other allied accessories have changed drastically that present significant opportunities to the businesses today. Wiring harness provides electrical as well as data connection within a vehicle. With the rise of advanced driver assistance systems such as Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), Lane-keep Assist, Traction Control, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Adaptive Cruise Control, Automatic Braking, Automatic Parking and Blind Spot Detection (BSD) among others, the demand for data connectivity cables or harness is set to increase. It is believed that in the future, with the advent of more driver assistance systems and autonomous driving is further going to increase the demand for faster, better, and more rugged data connectivity solution. Thus, these factors are going to drive the market for wiring harness over the forecast period from 2019 – 2027.

Wire Harness is the interconnecting wiring in the vehicle for the transmitting electrical power and signals in the electrical system. Over the years the number of components to be connected and hence the number of circuits has increased many folds. This has made the wire-harness design as the most complicated task in the vehicle design and wire harness (electrical system) integration with the other aggregates a difficult job. Many CAD tools and design software have evolved from computer companies. But they have not resolved major issues faced by vehicle OEM's and the wire-harness manufacturers. In fact, the requirements of vehicle manufacturers are not clear to the other agencies and this results in wire-harness development as a major bottleneck in any vehicle development program.
