Market Growth Factors

Brazil's tire demand continues to be driven by the local automotive market. In July 2024, car production continued to rise, increasing in volume to 246,721 units, the highest volume overall since October 2019, marking a growth of 16.9% from the previous month. A year-on-year growth of 34.8% over July 2023 indicates a growing demand for tires both in the OEM segment and the replacement segment.

Radial tires have lower rolling resistance and are more fuel efficient and longer-lasting than cross-ply tires. Brazilian fuel prices fluctuate, making fuel efficiency critical for tires in Brazil, and radial tires have an advantage in this regard, as their fabric layers run in a perpendicular direction. Because radial tires dissipate heat better than bias tires, they usually last longer and are therefore cheaper for the consumer, since they do not need replacing so often. CEAT Specialty signed an agreement with CNH Industrial to supply agricultural radial tires to Brazil and Argentina after testing their products extensively.

Support for this is driven in other segments such as electric vehicles and commercial vehicles, which have higher vehicle weights and immediate torque that demand specialized tires and have high-growth potential. The demand for heavy-duty, high-performance tires for trucks and buses is slowly increasing, driven by the increase in e-commerce and logistics. The OTR tire market is growing as manufacturers, dealers, and others in the OTR tire industry broaden their offerings to meet the rising demand for heavy-duty tires.
