Automotive Testing Inspection Certification Market Dynamics and Trends
The rising number of road accidents
The demand for automotive TIC market is being propelled as number of traffic accidents is rising worldwide. Although there are many reasons why accidents happen, the poor quality of vehicles sold around the world has received attention. A road traffic accident claims the lives of almost 1.3 million people worldwide each year, according to the WHO. Apart from which, 20 to 50 million extra people suffer non-fatal injuries and many of them go on to have disabilities.
Additional supporting laws require consistent, UN-compliant vehicle crash testing. Beginning on April 1, 2021, the government of countries like India will make dual airbags mandatory and beginning on October 1, 2022, the government will make the usage of a minimum of six airbags mandatory. Numerous other similar laws are also being considered for the safety.
The growing vehicle production and awareness of vehicle testing
The increase in vehicle production and public knowledge of vehicle testing are two additional factors driving the global automotive TIC (testing, inspection, certification) industry. According to OICA, there were 78.78 million vehicles sold worldwide in 2020 and 81.62 million in 2022.
Additionally, the growing demand for safety and comfort features has prompted OEMs and automotive suppliers to conduct research and development to test electronic components and to adhere to legal requirements. Safety is a big issue for automakers, hence demand for automotive TIC is anticipated to increase in the upcoming years.
Automotive Testing Inspection Certification Market Segment Analysis
The global automotive TIC (testing, inspection, certification) market is segmented based on type, product, vertical and region.
The rising production of passenger cars drives the segment
The passenger car segment of the automotive TIC (testing, inspection, certification) industry is predicted to grow rapidly. In the upcoming years, it is predicted to control more than 50% of the market. Passenger car sales increased to 57.485 million worldwide in 2022 from 56.43 million in 2021. Customers' growing purchasing power and the expanding demand for passenger cars in developed and developing countries have both contributed to the industry's expansion.

Automotive Testing Inspection Certification Market Geographical Share
The rising growth of electric vehicle in North America
Owing to the rise in electric vehicles and the implementation of new laws and regulations, North America is anticipated to account for more than 30% of the market. Additionally, the government is a significant contributor to the country's market growth. For instance, to ensure a smooth transition from using test fuel with 0% ethanol (E0) to test fuel with 10% ethanol (E10), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed technical modifications to the emissions testing protocols and adherence calculations for the Light-duty Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Standards and Fuel Economy Standards in 2020.
