Van Market was valued at US$ 146.85 Bn. in 2021 and the total revenue is expected to grow at 3.9% of CAGR through 2022 to 2029, reaching nearly US$ 199.43 Bn.
Van Market Overview:
A vehicle used to transport cargo. It is frequently bigger than a car but smaller than a truck, with an enclosed rear and no side windows. A van's interior space is optimized to be longer and taller than a car while remaining smaller than a truck. Vans often have a taller roof, reconfigurable seats, a flat floor, and sliding doors for the back entry. Furthermore, the driver's sitting arrangements maximize internal space, making it seem more comfortable and spacious. The majority of vans can comfortably accommodate 15 passengers without luggage. Vans can also be utilized to carry students to and from school. In India, for example, the van is one of the most prevalent vehicles for carrying schoolchildren, generally when the school buses are full. Therefore, it is expected that the need for vans to transport schoolchildren would rise in the near future, propelling the growth of the global van market. Regarding current automotive technology and driver assistance features, vans remain behind SUVs and utility vehicles. Due to the engine location, there is substantially less of a crush zone in front of the driver, making it more challenging for a van to receive a 5-star ANCAP crash test rating for driver and passenger safety, which is more challenging for van OMEs. The report covered detailed analyses of van oppurchinity and market strategies to drive the van market.

CO2 emission standards for new cars and vans

The three main goals of the legislative proposal to amend Regulation 2019/631, which establishes CO2 emission performance criteria for automobiles and light commercial vehicles, are:

1. Reduce CO2 emissions from cars and vans in order to help the country meet its climate goals for the years 2030 and 2050, keeping in mind the need of taking action quickly due to the short lifespan of these vehicles,

2. assist residents through the widespread use of zero-emission cars by improving air quality, conserving energy, and lowering the overall cost of ownership of such vehicles,

3. promote employment, boost the technological leadership of all country manufacturers and suppliers, and encourage the development of zero-emission technology.By establishing more demanding rules for decreasing the CO2 emissions of new vehicles and vans, the proposal modifies Regulation 2019/631. The emissions of new passenger vehicles registered in the country would need to be 55% lower by 2030 compared to the CO2 emissions standards applicable in 2021, and the emissions of new vans registered in the countries would need to be 50% lower. New passenger cars and vans would have to cut their CO2 emissions by 100% by 2035 or have zero emissions altogether. Beginning in 2030, the incentive for zero- and low-emission cars would no longer be available. Only manufacturers with less than 1000 new vehicle registrations each year will be eligible to request a derogation from the specified emissions goal as of 2030. In 2029, the exemption for manufacturers producing between 1,000 and 10,000 automobiles or between 1,000 and 22,000 vans will come to an end.

Commercial van market growth creates new equipment opportunities to market players

According to data on commercial van sales provided by the NTEA (National Truck Equipment Association), these sales are on the rise and are increasing year over year. Sales of commercial vans increased by 56.7% from 2013 to 2019. With such steady growth, also manufacturers have increased their product lines and now offer customers a variety of commercial and cargo van alternatives, including different van chassis, heights, engines, and drivetrains. Commercial cargo van-specific equipment has been added to the product ranges of manufacturers of commercial vehicle equipment, which drive the demand of van equipments in van market.

For example, Ford and GM remade themselves and emerged from the recession by changing their product lines to meet new market demands. The producers turned to Europe and identified an excellent chance to introduce commercial vehicles designed in Europe to North America. In North America, demand for commercial vehicles has grown. Their popularity peaked in 2012 and has continued to grow ever since. OEMs have been identified by the National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA) as producers of commercial vans: Ford, GM, Mercedes-Benz/Freightliner, Dodge Ram, and Nissan. With rising opportunity and demand for mobile air compressors for business vans, air compressor manufacturers have been slow to adapt their products for this popular kind of commercial vehicle, rapid adoption of this creat new opportunities for market players in the van market.
Van Market Segment Analysis:
Based on Type, the Van Market is segmented into Battery electric vehicles, Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, Internal combustion engine vehicles, and Gasoline vehicles. Battery-electric vehicles are expected to grow faster during the forecast period. All LCV categories had a decline in registrations in July, with 14,782 new vans weighing above 2.5 tonnes and up to 3.5 tonnes being registered in the month, a -11.2% decrease from 2021. The number of lighter vehicles weighing 2.0 tonnes or less fell by 20.3%, while the number of vans weighing between 2.0 tonnes and 2.5 tonnes fell by 49.8%. With continued industry investment in battery-electric vans (BEVs), demand is rising. In July, 765 BEVs were registered, an increase of 21.2%. This trend of increased uptake will continue in the first half of 2022 as van buyers take advantage of new electric models that offer longer ranges, efficiency savings, and quick charge times. As a result, 8,865 BEVs—a 55.7% increase—have been reported thus far this year. This is an increase from one in 37 a year earlier, but it still only accounts for one in 18 of all vans registered so far in 2022. The industry prognosis has been reduced from 328,000 to 307,000 new registrations for the year due to the continued weakness in overall registration volumes, a decrease of -6.5% from the previous outlook released in April. The market is now expected to end -13.7% lower than in 2021, when penetration nearly reached pre-pandemic levels. 4 Volumes are forecast to reach 357,000 units in 2023, a 16.4% increase, as the semiconductor scarcity is anticipated to start to improve during that year. BEVs are still expected to make up 6.4% of registrations this year, but the forecast for 2023 has been significantly revised lower, from 9.6% to 9.2%.

Based on the Application, the Van Market is segmented into Up to 2 Tons, 2-3 Tons, 3-5.5 Tons. 2-3 Tons are expected to grow faster during the forecast period. Pick-up trucks, commercial 4x4s, and various sizes of vans are all included in the market for light commercial vehicles that weigh up to 3.5 tonnes. Despite sales falling by just under 10%, vans weighing between 2.5 and 3.5 tonnes continued to account for the majority of new registrations, making up just under two-thirds (65.8%) of the market overall. The second-most popular vehicles on the market were vans weighing between two and 2.5 tonnes, although they only made up around a fourth of all purchases (24.9 percent). That followed a sector increase of more than a third from the same month in 2021. Light commercial vehicle (LCV) vans with a tonnage of less than 2.5 tons is heavily used to transport goods across shorter or closer distances, driven by the growing demand for products from e-commerce. The expansion of the industrial sector in developing countries, rising demand from the logistics sector, and expanding demand from the global construction sector are all driving the market development in the 2.5 tons category.
