United Kingdom Tire Market to Grow with a CAGR of 3.37% through 2030

Growing demand for high-performance and seasonal tires, increasing vehicle parc, and rising online tire sales are the factors driving the market in the forecast period 2026–2030.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “United Kingdom Tire Market – Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2020-2030F”, The United Kingdom Tire Market was valued at USD 3.37 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 4.17 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.64% during the forecast period.

The United Kingdom tire market is navigating a dynamic transformation, shaped by several emerging factors influencing consumer behavior and market growth. The increasing preference for all-season tires is a significant trend, driven by the country's temperate climate and fluctuating weather conditions. Consumers are leaning towards tires that provide year-round performance, reducing the need for seasonal tire changes. This shift in consumer choice is contributing to the growth of the all-season tire segment, which is expected to capture a larger share of the market in the coming years.

Technological advancements in tire design and manufacturing are another key driver. The introduction of smart tires, which are equipped with sensors to monitor tire pressure, temperature, and tread wear, is becoming increasingly popular, particularly among fleet operators and tech-savvy consumers. These tires offer enhanced safety and maintenance benefits by providing real-time data that can help prevent accidents and optimize tire performance. The integration of such technologies is expected to continue growing, with further advancements in tire monitoring systems and AI-driven predictive maintenance tools.

The regulatory environment surrounding tire safety is also influencing market growth. The UK government’s focus on improving road safety standards and enforcing stricter emissions regulations is pushing manufacturers to develop eco-friendly tire solutions with lower rolling resistance, which help reduce fuel consumption and carbon footprints. These regulations, along with a growing environmental consciousness among consumers, are spurring demand for tires made from sustainable materials, such as bio-based rubber and recycled components. The market is witnessing an increasing presence of green tires that align with the global push for more sustainable automotive solutions.

In addition, the rise in electric vehicle (EV) adoption is influencing tire demand in the UK. As the number of EVs on the road increases, so does the need for tires that are specifically designed to accommodate the unique characteristics of electric vehicles, such as higher torque and weight. Tires for EVs are being engineered to enhance durability, reduce rolling resistance, and improve battery efficiency, leading to a new segment in the tire market. As EV sales continue to rise, this segment is expected to expand rapidly, driven by both OEM requirements and aftermarket replacement needs.

United Kingdom Tire Market Is Segmented by Vehicle Type, Demand Category, Tire Construction Type, and By Region.

​In 2024, the fastest-growing segment of the United Kingdom tire market is the Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV) category. This growth is primarily driven by the surge in demand for delivery vans and small commercial vehicles, which are increasingly essential for last-mile delivery services and e-commerce operations. The rise of online shopping, particularly accelerated by the shift in consumer behavior over the past few years, has significantly impacted the demand for LCVs. These vehicles require durable tires capable of handling frequent city driving, carrying substantial loads, and enduring diverse road conditions. LCVs are also benefiting from trends such as urbanization and the growing need for logistics services within metropolitan areas, further propelling tire replacement and demand for specialized tires tailored to their unique operational needs. With an increasing focus on fleet management and tire performance optimization, LCV owners are looking for tires that offer better fuel efficiency, enhanced load-carrying capabilities, and longer tread life, contributing to the segment’s rapid growth in the market.

Among the regions in the United Kingdom, Scotland is expected to be the fastest-growing in 2024 for tire demand. This growth can be attributed to several factors, including a strong rise in the number of commercial vehicles and the expansion of transportation and logistics networks within the region. Scotland’s geographic positioning, with its vast rural areas and increasing urban development, has driven the need for both passenger vehicles and commercial fleets, including LCVs. Additionally, the government's focus on infrastructure development and sustainability initiatives has also fueled demand for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly tires. The region’s strong agricultural sector further supports tire sales, as heavy-duty vehicles used in farming and related industries require specialized tires that can handle rough terrain and load-bearing operations. With these factors combined, Scotland is poised to see notable growth in tire sales and replacements, driven by both consumer demand and industrial needs.
