Description

Europe Turbocharger Market was valued at USD 7.8 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% to reach USD 12.1 billion by 2034.

The market growth is being fueled by increasing consumer preference for fuel-efficient vehicles, stringent regulatory frameworks around carbon emissions, and the growing penetration of hybrid and electric vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines for enhanced performance.

Turbochargers are becoming essential components in modern automotive engineering, offering the dual benefits of improved fuel economy and higher engine power output. As Europe continues its aggressive push toward sustainable transportation, automakers are rapidly adopting turbocharger technology to comply with Euro 6/7 emission standards while maintaining vehicle performance. Additionally, advancements in turbocharger designs—including variable geometry turbochargers (VGT) and electric turbochargers—are accelerating adoption across passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and off-highway applications. The European Union’s strict emission reduction targets continue to be the single most important driver of the turbocharger market. Automakers are under constant pressure to meet CO₂ and NOx limits, making turbochargers a crucial solution. At the same time, the rising popularity of hybrid vehicles—where turbochargers enhance engine downsizing and fuel efficiency—is further expanding the market’s potential.

By fuel type, the gasoline turbochargers generated USD 3.3 billion in 2024. This dominance is driven by the widespread production of gasoline-powered passenger cars in Europe, where manufacturers are increasingly equipping smaller engines with turbochargers to enhance performance while reducing emissions. Gasoline turbochargers also benefit from growing demand for SUVs and compact cars that require efficient yet powerful engines. Continuous R&D focused on improving responsiveness, reducing turbo lag, and enhancing durability has further solidified the leadership of this segment.

The OEM segment generated USD 5.4 billion in 2024. This strong position stems from automakers’ increasing integration of turbochargers—especially in downsized gasoline and diesel engines—to meet increasingly stringent EU emissions regulations and boost fuel efficiency. With strategies like engine downsizing and electrified powertrains, manufacturers are deploying advanced turbocharging technologies, including twin-turbo and electric-assisted systems, as part of their OEM offerings. In contrast, the aftermarket segment, while growing with the rise of remanufactured units and replacement demand, remains significantly smaller than the OEM channel.

Western Europe Turbocharger Market was valued at USD 3.3 billion in 2024. This expansion is driven by stringent emissions regulations, strong consumer demand for fuel-efficient and high-performance vehicles, and technological advancements such as variable geometry and electric turbochargers. Additionally, the hybridization trend in Western European automotive markets is fueling interest in innovative turbocharged powertrains that balance performance with sustainability.

The Europe turbocharger market is highly competitive, with leading players focusing on innovation, lightweight material adoption, and strategic collaborations with OEMs. Key companies include Garrett Motion, BorgWarner Inc., IHI Corporation, Cummins Inc., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and Continental AG. These players are investing heavily in R&D to develop advanced turbo technologies, including electric and hybrid-compatible turbochargers, to strengthen their market presence. Partnerships with automakers to co-develop tailored solutions remain a central strategy to capture evolving consumer and regulatory demands.
