Because of the decreased demand in the automobile sector, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on the torque converter market. More population means more demand for vehicles, but there is no demand for torque converters due to covid-19. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have also ceased production, reducing demand in the torque converter market. The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak has had a negative impact on the showcase business and the growth of the torque converter market. The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused manufacturers to halt production.

Regional analysis:

The torque converter market is divided into five regions: Oceania, Asia, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World. North America has the highest automatic penetration, making it the largest market for torque converters. CVT vehicle demand is increasing in developing countries such as China and India. Asia Oceania is expected to be the largest market for torque converters by 2025, owing to increased automatic vehicle production and demand for CVT vehicles. AT vehicles were first used in the United States in the 1960s, and the country now has the largest share of the North American market. As a result, when compared to other regions, North America has the largest AT vehicles. Because torque converters are required for AT vehicles, the North American aftermarket is expected to remain the largest.
