Market Overview
The Asia-Pacific and Africa Automotive Wiring Harness Market is expected to grow at a high CAGR during the forecast period (2024-2031).
The rise in electric vehicle demand all around the world due to favourable government policies is the major factor for the rise in the automotive wiring harness market
A wiring harness is an organized set of wires, terminals, and connectors that run throughout the entire vehicle and relay information and electric power, thereby playing a critical role in “connecting” a variety of components. Power and information travel through this network much like the circulatory and central nervous systems of the human body
The report covers all the major trends and drivers playing a vital role in the growth of the Asia-Pacific and Africa automotive wiring harness market. The Asia-Pacific and Africa automotive wiring harness market has been segmented based on Region, Type, Component, Material, Standard, User, Application and End-User.

Market Dynamics
The Asia-Pacific and Africa automotive wiring harness market growth is primarily driven by the rise in electric vehicle sales all around the world owing to the favourable government policies to reduce pollution by switching to electric vehicles. According to International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2017, more than one Billion EVs were sold Asia-Pacific and Africa, with countries like Norway, China, and the US dominating the Asia-Pacific and Africa EVs market in terms of market share
However, the high maintenance cost due to the rusting problem of the metal will hinder the growth of the automotive wiring harness market for the forecast period. Another reason is the availability of the alternate connectors better than the harness. For instance, Panasonic has commercialized a connector with a unique structure that allows direct connection between an automotive FPC (flexible printed circuit) and the board. This connector eliminates the need for wire harnesses previously needed for connection
Segmentation Analysis
By Component, the Asia-Pacific and Africa automotive wiring harness market is segmented into Electric Wire, Connectors, Terminals, Dressing, Line Protection components and Others. Terminals have the dominant share in the Component segment and are expected to retain their dominance in the forecast period. However, the rise in the transportation industry due to the growing number of travellers will boost the automotive wiring harness industry. Rising advancement in the technology of the automobile industry such as self-driving is asking for more complex wire harnessing will drive the market for the terminals. However, the connectors will grow with higher CAGR due to the adoption of various safety systems such as airbags, anti-lock braking systems (ABS), and others that use connectors
By End-User, the Asia-Pacific and Africa automotive wiring harness market are segmented into Two Wheelers, Passenger Cars, Commercial Vehicles (Bus, Truck, Heavy Commercial Vehicles, Agricultural Vehicles (Tractor, Harvester, Balers, Others), Others), Electrical Vehicle, Recreational Vehicles and Others. Passenger Cars have the dominant position in the automotive wiring harness Vehicle type segment and is expected to retain their dominance in the forecasted period due to the large demand and sales of passenger cars all around the world. Moreover, the rise in demand for electric passenger cars is also boosting the market for the following period. However, the rising pollution is creating demand for commercial electric vehicles which will boost the market of wiring harnesses for the commercial vehicle segment in the forecast period
