Table of Contents Key Facts and Figures
Estimated at $264 billion in 2021, the global tire market has begun to recover from the disruptions associated with COVID-19, with a rebound enhanced average annual growth rate of 3.6 percent (in volume) through 2026. Based on strong drivers and trends, Smithers anticipates a sustained recovery through 2026, as the market reverts to something closer to the pre-COVID-19 trajectory, though not fully catching up during the forecast period. Complicating this recovery are supply chain disruptions, and rising shipping and materials costs.
