The rapid expansion of the automotive industry, on account of the surging disposable income of people, the burgeoning requirement for electric cars, and the rapid technological advancements and innovations, is one of the major factors responsible for the mushrooming sales of compressors across the world. This is because compressors are heavily used in various applications in the automotive industry such as car painting, tire inflation, engine construction, and air conditioning systems.

According to various reports, over 2.1 million electric cars were sold across the globe in 2019. Moreover, electric cars accounted for as much as 2.6% of the total car sales around the world in 2019, registering a year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth of 40% from the previous year. Apart from the growth of the automotive industry, the boom in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry is also positively impacting the sales of compressors all over the globe.
