The freight car market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides freight car market statistics, including freight car industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a freight car market share, detailed freight car market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the freight car industry. This freight car market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global freight cars market size will grow from $167.96 billion in 2022 to $176.19 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global freight cars market size is expected to grow to $208.45 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 4.3%. Government initiatives are expected to boost the freight car market's growth. For instance, in September 2021, the Indian government think tank Niti Aayog, launched the "Shoonya" initiative, which aims to fully electrify fleet vehicles in the urban freight sector within the next two years, as part of a massive effort to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and build an ecosystem for them in the nation. Therefore, the steps taken by the government to increase rail freight will increase the demand for freight cars' market growth during the period. Stringent regulation regarding import and export is one of the major challenges to the growth of the freight car market. Rail freight transportation would decrease as a result of strict rules over trade, which would decrease the demand for freight cars. In 2020, the Customs department of India imposed stringent rules on the free-trade agreement import of white goods to check undue dumping of these commodities under FTAs from non-producing countries. It aims to check the misuse of relaxation under free-trade agreements. India is also eager to implement new planned regulations to boost domestic manufacturing by reducing imports, with the goal of reducing the amount of lower-quality imports from China. Therefore, stringent rules posed by the government over trade are expected to hinder the freight car market growth during the forecast period. Freight cars are now enabled with GPS tracking and this is likely to be an emerging trend in the freight car market. The efficiency of freight car transport will be augmented with the use of advanced GPS technologies. Rail operators' incorporation of GPS technologies into freight cars aids in managing the transport process, scheduling freight cars, maintaining a consistent delivery process, and reducing freight car theft. For instance, in June 2022, Indian Railways began real-time monitoring of trains (passenger and freight) using the Control Office Application (COA) system. The COA was designed by ISRO after collaborating with the Indian Railways to monitor the movement of freight cars even between two stations with GPS. Therefore, the demand for freight cars is expected to be increased with the incorporation of certain criteria such as real-time data and on-time deliveries.
