Middle East & Africa Automotive Chargers and USB Data Hubs Market

Market Introduction

The automotive chargers and USB data hubs market in the MEA is segmented into South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. The region is witnessing a rapid increase in commercialization and industrialization, which would further boost the growth of various sectors in future. The Gulf countries are economically developed, while the African countries are yet to match up to the economic conditions of these countries. In the era of continuous technological developments, the integration of advanced technologies is increasing in a range of industries such as automotive in Middle East. In the MEA, South Africa is one of the major shareholders in the automotive chargers and USB data hubs market. In recent years, the nation has seen an increase in demand for vehicles. According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, South Africa produced 631,983 passenger and commercial vehicles in 2019. In many Middle Eastern countries, a shared mobility model based on electric vehicles is being introduced in public transportation. For instance, the government of the UAE is planning to have 42,000 hybrid cars on the road by 2025, including passenger cars and commercial vehicles. Similarly, in Saudi Arabia, the government is taking initiatives to strengthen their automotive sector to have diversified economic growth besides oil sector.

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted MEA due to wide disease spread; countries in this region are among the highly populated, which leads to the greater risk infection spread. According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the pandemic has affected major economies such as China, India, Australia, and Japan, which are experiencing inflation. India is the worst-hit country by the pandemic in this region. Many global brands and technological companies are headquartered in the region. The limitations imposed by governments to control the spread of COVID-19, the impact of the disease on populations of different countries in the region, and current inability to utilize production capabilities are the key factors impacting automotive chargers and USB data hubs in Asian countries. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to continue to hinder the automotive chargers and USB data hubs market growth in MEA.                        

Market Overview and Dynamics
