Specialty Vehicle Market Overview:
In the automotive industry, special purpose vehicles are primarily manufactured to perform specific tasks. Consequently, these vehicles are equipped with special equipment to be driven by own engine or separately mounted engine. Most times, special purpose vehicles are heavy duty vehicles, such as dump trucks and tank trucks. However, special purpose vehicles also consist of dump trucks, concrete pumps, along with pneumatic bulk carriers, and tank trailers. These vehicles are utilized in various industries including chemical, petroleum, and construction. The global report on specialty vehicle market is studied and analysed on the basis of vehicle type, application and region.

Specialized vehicles mainly used in the construction and logistics sectors as well as garbage collection vehicles. The expansion of the construction industry in countries like China and India, with the active participation of the private sector, is expected to drive the specialized vehicle market during the forecast period. The expansion of the logistics sector is expected to drive the demand for special pneumatically powered bulk carriers and tank truck trailers, which in turn is expected to drive the market for the bulk carriers. Specialty Vehicle market is expected to register CAGR of 3.29% during the forecast period.
Specialty Vehicle Market Dynamics:
Global tourism has seen a significant increase. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the United States recorded a total of 1,862.2 million domestic trips in 2019. This number is increasing gradually from 2009 and is estimated at 1,827.5 million rides in 2018, indicating an increase in demand for rides and, therefore, recreational vehicles used for these trips. The Bureau of Labor Statistics also estimates annual household spending at $336.02, which is expected to boost the domestic tourism market indirectly helps in the specialty vehicle market growth.
Increasing demand for risk mitigation on job sites:
Specialized vehicles have many potential risks of injury and death to employees. When working in an environment where hundreds of actions are taking place concurrently, security is a top priority. Tens of thousands of construction workers are injured on the job each year, with many incidents occurring while the worker is actually driving a specialized vehicle of some kind. According to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), there have been more than 200 registered professional vehicle-related deaths since 2017.
On construction sites, specialized vehicles need to be able to predict and detect dangerous situations in order to prevent them. There are no road signs, lane markings or established infrastructure to help guide vehicles on the right path. Fortunately, Image Radar can capture details of the surrounding work site, such as other vehicles and workers, as well as stationary objects including crates, materials, columns, and more. Not only can sensor solutions be used for object detection, but object location data can also be collected for real-time warning (or even stopping a vehicle in motion) if it accidentally getting too close to a person or detecting a dangerous situation. This ensures the safety of the operator and all others. Additional applications include forward collision warning, gap warning, automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, and all these are responsible in the growth of specialty vehicle market.
Recent developments in radar technology have become increasingly beneficial to the automotive industry. For specialized vehicles, in particular, self-driving car technology opens up possibilities that weren't available a decade ago. Today, commercial imaging radar sensors are being used with trucks, tractors, bulldozers and other emerging autonomous vehicle applications to support the development of smart buildings.
Growing Economic Compatibility:
The growing compatibility of the economy has led to global diversification and the birth of many businesses, such as mobile clinics, airport terminal expansion and transportation. E-commerce transfer, requires specialized facilities. In August 2019, Los Angeles Airport began purchasing 36 new low-rise specialty vehicles from Specialty Vehicle Inc. These vehicles are used as shuttles from the baggage claim area to the parking area. The aforementioned factors and circumstances are driving the growth of the global specialty vehicle market.
Specialty Vehicle Market Segmentation:
Healthcare and Enforcement Sector is driving the Market Growth:
The rise of epidemics and pandemics, road accidents, home and work injuries, and government-funded healthcare programs are driving the growth of the medical vehicle market and specialized healthcare. The rise of diseases such as blood cancer, which develops one every 3 minutes in the United States, has led to an increase in the demand for blood, driving the growth of the motorcycle market. Recent epidemics and pandemics, such as Ebola and COVID19, have increased the need for ambulances, mobile pharmacies, and mobile intensive care units. In many countries, increased demand for ambulances has outstripped population growth. In New Zealand, mobile operator room service has restarted after COVID19 lockdown restrictions were lifted. With the proliferation and development of autonomous vehicle technology, emergency vehicles are expected to soon be equipped with semi-autonomous driver assistance technology. Demand from all these and COVID-19 positve impact were help to the specialty vehicle market market during past 3 years.
Increased global government spending on law enforcement and healthcare facilities is driving demand for specialized vehicles. For example, in the 2019-20 financial year, the UK spent around £153 billion, up 2% year-on-year. According to the 2019 Statistical Analysis of Public Expenditure, public spending on law enforcement services in the UK during 2016-17 was £16.37 billion, increasing to 3.2%. In 2018-19, it reached £17.99 billion.
Construction Industry: Dark Horse of Specialty Vehicles Market:
The construction industry is likely to play an important role in the specialty vehicle market. The growth of the construction industry, due to rapid urbanization, government investment in construction projects and extensive private sector participation in construction, is expected to boost the specialty vehicle market. However, the logistics industry is also growing significantly due to the expansion of the e-commerce industry globally. The increased use of pneumatic bulk carriers and tanker trailers in the logistics industry is expected to drive the specialized vehicle market during the forecast period. Oil and chemical companies also use specialized tankers to transport flammable liquids and gasoline.
Radar Technology: Key Market Trend:
Job sites are anticipated to keep running smoothly, rain or shine, no matter the season. If a creation venture is delayed, numerous entities devour the cost. Because of this, there was an pressing marketplace want for sensors that offer LiDAR-like images, however which can characteristic successfully wherein LiDAR is compromised, together with extraordinarily bright, extraordinarily dim, dusty, and comparable situations.
While different answers are threatened with the aid of using non-top-quality climate and the diverse environmental situations stated above, radar gives extraordinarily dependable performance. Additionally, they create an exceptional expertise of the real-time running surroundings for self-sustaining distinctiveness motors in tough and difficult situations.Often complete of dirt and different particles flying around, radar sensors are best or even extra essential for secure operation on activity sites. Specialty motors could have the capacity to penetrate dirt, rain, and snow, and provide the identical dependable protection capability in awful climate and no mild situations.
