The largest category demanded in Middle East auto parts exports is wear-and-tear parts, followed by climate-adaptive parts, engine core components, tires and batteries. New energy vehicle parts represent a fast-growing potential category.
- Fast-moving wear parts (largest demand)
Air filters, oil filters, fuel filters, brake pads, brake discs, spark plugs, wiper blades, etc. Annual demand exceeds US$3.5 billion.
High temperatures and sandstorms in the Middle East accelerate component wear, and most local vehicles are over 5 years old, resulting in strong replacement demand.
Chinese-made wear parts account for more than 60% of the Saudi market.
- Climate-adaptive parts
Air conditioning compressors, condensers, radiators, high-temperature resistant wiring harnesses, etc.
Extreme summer heat (up to 70°C) puts long-term heavy load on AC systems. Customized high-temperature resistant parts carry a 20%–40% price premium.
- Tires and batteries
Tires account for a large share of demand; Chinese tires make up 45.11% of Middle East imports.
Lead-acid batteries and start-stop batteries need frequent replacement due to rapid wear from high temperatures.
- Engine core components
Pistons, crankshafts, cylinder liners, valves, etc.
High temperatures and sand demand high engine durability, driving strong repair and remanufacturing demand.
- New energy parts (high potential)
Charging piles, power battery repair parts, motor cooling systems, etc.
The number of NEVs in the Middle East is growing by 47% annually, with related parts increasing by 28%.
