Semi-Truck Market, Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis and Forecast, 2024-2032


The global semi-truck market was valued at USD 141.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 5.2% between 2024 and 2032. The growth of globalization and the expansion of international trade are key factors driving demand. As global trade surges, the need for efficient and dependable freight transportation solutions has grown, with semi-trucks playing a pivotal role in long-haul and cross-border shipping. These vehicles are essential for manufacturing centers, linking ports, and distribution hubs, ensuring smooth movement of goods across regions. The rise of e-commerce and just-in-time delivery models further highlights the importance of strong transportation networks, where semi-trucks remain indispensable.

The overall semi-truck industry is classified based on the propulsion, truck class, body, end-use, application, and region.

Based on propulsion, the market is segmented into diesel, natural gas, hybrid, and electric. In 2023, the diesel segment accounted for a market share of over 77% and is expected to exceed USD 173.9 billion by 2032. Diesel's prominence stems from its high energy density, which delivers greater power and efficiency for heavy-duty operations. With their higher torque output, diesel engines are vital for transporting heavy loads over long distances, making them the top choice for long-haul and heavy-duty trucks. Moreover, the well-established global infrastructure for diesel fuel distribution enables convenient refueling, even in remote locations. Diesel engines also tend to have a longer lifespan and require less frequent maintenance, enhancing their appeal in the commercial trucking sector.

Based on the truck class, the market is divided into class 6, class 7, and class 8. The class 8 segment held around 69% market share in 2023. These trucks lead the semi-truck market thanks to their ability to meet the toughest transportation demands, making them crucial for long-haul and heavy-duty tasks. With a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of over 33,000 pounds, they are built to carry large, heavy loads across extensive distances, making them indispensable in sectors like logistics, construction, and mining.

In 2023, the North American region accounted for a market share of over 37% and is expected to exceed USD 83.6 billion by 2032. The extensive transportation infrastructure and high demand for freight services in the region have secured a significant share in the semi-truck market. With leading manufacturers such as Navistar and PACCAR, the U.S. is the largest contributor. The region's emphasis on transportation with long-haul and stringent emission regulations drives the demand for advanced, fuel-efficient trucks.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
