Automotive Composite Market Size, Share, Trends, & Industry Analysis Report By (Non-Electric and Electric), By Fiber Type, By Manufacturing Process, By Resin Type, By Application, and By Region – Market Forecast, 2025–2034

The automotive composites market size is expected to reach USD 40.54 Billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Automotive Composite Market Size, Share, Trends, & Industry Analysis Report By (Non-Electric and Electric), By Fiber Type, By Manufacturing Process, By Resin Type, By Application, and By Region – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

The automotive composites market is gaining strong momentum as car manufacturers look for smarter ways to reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency. Composites such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, and natural fiber are used more widely in both electric and traditional vehicles to support lightweight design without compromising strength or safety.

Composite materials offer strong, durable, and corrosion-resistant alternatives to traditional metals, making them essential in both passenger and commercial vehicle production. Growing focus on sustainability and performance among vehicle manufacturers is expected to drive steady adoption of composites in the coming years.

Automotive Composite Market Report Highlights

Based on vehicle type, the non-electric vehicle segment accounted for significant revenue share in 2024, due to the extensive integration of composite materials in passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

In terms of fiber type, the glass fiber segment dominated the market in 2024. This is owing to cost-effectiveness, high tensile strength, and suitability for high-volume manufacturing.

Based on manufacturing process, the compression molding process segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2024. This process is widely adopted for manufacturing high-strength and lightweight automotive parts using fiber-reinforced composites.

Based on application, the exterior segment held the largest revenue share in 2034, due to the growing need to meet emission targets and increase fuel economy in vehicles.

Asia Pacific accounted for the majority share in the global automotive composite market in 2024. This dominance is due to rapid expansion in electric vehicle manufacturing, supported by government initiatives and localized production incentives.

North America automotive composite market accounted for significant share in 2024, due to the region's well-established and technologically advanced automotive manufacturing infrastructure
