New Zealand Tire Market to Grow with a CAGR of 4.81% through 2030
Rising vehicle ownership, growing demand for replacement tires, and
increased construction and agricultural activities are the factors driving the
market in the forecast period 2026–2030.
According to TechSci Research report, “New Zealand Tire Market –
Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2020-2030F”,
The New Zealand Tire Market was valued at USD 922.75 Million in 2024 and is
expected to reach USD 1223.20 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.81% during the
forecast period.
The tire market in New Zealand is evolving in response to changing
transportation habits, regulatory frameworks, and technological integration
within the mobility ecosystem. The market is not only influenced by the steady
pace of vehicle registrations but also by rising expectations for safety,
digital connectivity, and sustainability in automotive components. One of the
defining characteristics of the New Zealand tire landscape is the country’s
high reliance on imported vehicles—particularly used imports from Japan—which
creates a complex tire replacement cycle with varied sizing and specifications.
This import-driven diversity in the vehicle fleet encourages demand for
multi-brand, multi-segment tire offerings to accommodate a broad array of
driving conditions and vehicle types.
Consumer behavior is also shifting, with increased sensitivity toward
road safety inspections and Warrant of Fitness (WoF) requirements. These
routine safety checks, mandatory for most vehicles, are directly influencing
the frequency of tire replacements, especially in urban centers where daily
commuting exerts significant wear on passenger tires. Seasonal driving
conditions in certain regions, including snow-prone areas in the South Island,
are driving niche demand for winter and all-terrain tires, particularly among
recreational users and tourism operators.

New Zealand Tire Market Is Segmented by Demand
Category, Tire Construction Type, Vehicle Type, and Region.
The passenger car segment
led New Zealand’s tire market growth in 2024, accounting for over two-thirds of
total demand. Growth stemmed from rising new and used vehicle registrations,
particularly high-mileage imports that required immediate tire replacements.
Higher urban travel, increased disposable incomes, and strict safety
inspections drove frequent tire changes. Consumers favored features like low
rolling resistance, sensor integration, and sustainable materials. Digital tire
retailing gained traction, with online platforms offering fitment tools and
flexible purchase options for tech-oriented car owners.
South Island emerged as the
fastest-growing tire market region in 2024, fueled by strong activity in
agriculture, construction, and tourism. Areas such as Canterbury and
Christchurch saw rising demand due to car-reliant commuting, expanding rural
networks, and increasing tourist travel. Population growth around regional hubs
and investments in transport infrastructure pushed vehicle use and tire wear.
The island’s varied terrain and climate conditions created sustained demand for
durable, multi-performance tires.
