CNG Powertrain Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global CNG Powertrain Market is estimated to reach USD 501.32 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 17.81%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global CNG Powertrain Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. A CNG powertrain operates using compressed natural gas (CNG) instead of conventional gasoline or diesel fuel. CNG combustion is cleaner, emitting fewer harmful gases compared to petrol and diesel. Essentially, a CNG powertrain functions similarly to a regular internal combustion engine running on gasoline. While there are some additional components in a CNG powertrain, the basic combustion process remains unchanged. Power generation involves mixing the fuel with air and igniting it within the cylinder. The key difference lies in the need for a specialized, high-pressure tank to store the compressed gas, unlike conventional fuel tanks.
- January 2023: Two CNG powertrain options were introduced by Maruti Suzuki for the Grand Vitara SUV.
- June 2023: Due to the drop in CNG's pricing, Tata Motors increases its manufacturing of CNG-based models.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities: The development of more efficient engines for CNG powertrains is a top priority for the industry. By lowering the volumetric efficiency loss, speeding up flame spread, and lowering petrol evaporation from the engine, they are making an investment in enhancing the engine's performance. Leading automakers are also equipping their CNG vehicles with cutting-edge technology. To improve fuel efficiency, S-CNG technology, for instance, is applied to passenger cars. To do this, the fuel-to-air ratio is altered, and the electric control units are synced with the intelligent fuel injection system.
Challenges: Due to the extra components required for CNG and LPG vehicles, their powertrains are often more expensive than those of standard petrol vehicles. Because most of these cars lack lubrication, they require more frequent maintenance, which over time increases the cost because some parts degrade more quickly than in gasoline-powered cars. The parts also need to be replaced more frequently than those in gasoline-powered cars, whose lifespan is usually longer. For instance, fleet owners who travel regularly for work might choose CNG. The cost-effectiveness of CNG and LPG vehicles depends on how frequently they are used.
Market Competitive Landscape
The market exhibits a moderate level of fragmentation, with several major players, including AB Volvo, Cummins Inc., Ford Motor Company, FPT Industrial S.P.A., Honda Motor Company, Hyundai Motor Company, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Robert Bosch GmbH., Volkswagen AG, Others. Leading companies are using tactics including collaborations, mergers and acquisitions, and expansion to increase their market share across multiple geographies. For the majority of market incumbents, organic expansion continues to be their primary strategy. In order to obtain a competitive edge in the industry, C.N.G. powertrain manufacturers are concentrating on improving their current product offers and brand awareness.

COVID-19 Impact on Global CNG Powertrain Market
The COVID-19 pandemic caused a global economic slowdown, impacting various sectors, including the CNG Powertrain market, which closely correlates with the automotive industry's growth. In early 2020, lockdowns and supply chain disruptions affected major economies, particularly China and Japan, key players in passenger car production, leading to production cutbacks. Consumer preferences shifted significantly, resulting in dissatisfactory FY-20 passenger car sales worldwide. Production plant closures and reduced workforce due to social distancing measures further hindered vehicle manufacturing. Additionally, supply chain disruptions made it challenging to procure raw materials, while rising inflation increased production costs.
