Global Car-Based External Airbag Market Growth 2025-2031
Description
The global Car-Based External Airbag market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1145 million in 2025 to US$ 2637 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.9% from 2025 to 2031.
The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.
Car-Based External Airbag are safety systems installed on the exterior of a vehicle, designed to deploy in the event of an imminent collision to protect both pedestrians and the vehicle itself. These airbags may be located in areas such as the front bumper, side panels, or under the hood and are activated by advanced sensors that detect crash scenarios before impact occurs. Their primary purpose is to absorb energy and reduce injury to external parties—especially pedestrians—or to protect critical parts of the vehicle during side impacts or rollovers.
The market for Car-Based External Airbag external airbags is gradually gaining momentum as the automotive industry continues to evolve toward smarter, safer, and more autonomous mobility solutions. As road safety regulations become increasingly comprehensive, automakers are expanding their focus from occupant-only protection to full-spectrum safety that includes pedestrians, cyclists, and even the vehicle structure itself. This shift is especially relevant in urban environments, where vehicle-pedestrian interactions are frequent and accidents can result in severe injuries or fatalities.
External airbags represent a new frontier in passive safety technology, supplementing traditional internal airbags by acting before or during the earliest moments of a collision. The integration of radar, lidar, and camera-based detection systems enables these airbags to respond intelligently and in real-time, often milliseconds before contact. This makes them particularly suitable for modern vehicles equipped with advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving capabilities.
In addition to pedestrian protection, external airbags are also being explored for side-impact and rollover protection. For instance, side-mounted airbags that deploy just before a crash can create a buffer zone, reducing structural damage and minimizing impact forces transmitted to occupants. Similarly, underbody airbags are under development to help stabilize vehicles during extreme maneuvers or prevent rollover by lifting the car slightly at critical moments.
