Medium and heavy-duty trucks (M&HDT) ranging from class 3 to 8 generally use steel wheels as they have a higher rated weight carrying capacity than alloy wheels. Alloy wheels are not a good choice where gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is above 6 tons. These vehicles still use an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) as their preferred powertrain. However, with the advancement of battery technology with higher power output and the development of Solid-State Battery (SSB), it is expected that electric powertrain would come into mainstream by 2028 for medium and heavy commercial vehicles. Thus, during the forecast period, it is expected to offer lucrative opportunities for steel wheels market to penetrate into the electric commercial vehicle spectrum. The increase in demand for lightweight steel wheels is among the other factors propelling the demand for automotive steel wheels.
