Automotive Fuel Tank Market To Reach USD 25.48 Billion By 2030 Driven By Lightweight And Hydrogen Trends Mordor Intelligence

"Automotive Fuel Tank Market"Mordor Intelligence has published a new report on the automotive fuel tank market offering a comprehensive analysis of trends, growth drivers, and future projections.
Introduction
According to a recent report by Mordor Intelligence, The automotive fuel tank market reached USD 20.15 billion in 2025 and is forecast to climb to USD 25.48 billion by 2030, reflecting a 4.80% CAGR. This growth is anchored in a mix of traditional internal-combustion-engine (ICE) demand, rising hybrid vehicle production, and an emerging shift toward hydrogen storage systems.
Key Market Trends
Lightweight Plastic Tanks Gain Ground: Automakers are increasingly turning to plastic multi-layer barrier fuel tanks to reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency, and comply with stricter CO2 and evaporative emissions standards. These plastic designs offer flexibility in shape, lower tooling costs, and better resistance to permeation. This trend supports a growing portion of the automotive fuel tank market share, especially in regions with stringent environmental norms.
Recovery of ICE and Hybrid Vehicle Production: Despite the rise of electric vehicles, internal-combustion and hybrid vehicles are seeing a resurgence. Many hybrid vehicles still rely on liquid fuel storage, which drives demand for traditional fuel tanks. This recovery in production, especially in Asia-Pacific, is a major contributor to the ongoing growth in the automotive fuel tank market size.
Tighter Evaporative Emissions Regulations: Regulations, such as the Euro 7 standard, are pushing automakers to adopt more robust vapor-adsorber systems, advanced purge hardware, and improved onboard diagnostics to control hydrocarbon emissions. These regulatory changes are accelerating adoption of higher-quality fuel tank systems and contributing to automotive fuel tank market trends in favour of advanced materials and designs.
Hydrogen Storage Opens New Growth Paths: Hydrogen fuel type is expected to grow at the fastest rate across fuel types, driven by increasing interest in fuel-cell vehicles and supporting infrastructure. Composite hydrogen tanks, especially Type IV cylinders that use polymer liners wrapped with carbon fiber, are becoming more common. These designs withstand very high pressure (up to 700 bar), are lightweight, and are critical to scaling up hydrogen mobility.

Conclusion
The automotive fuel tank market is advancing under a complex blend of forces traditional demand from ICE and hybrid vehicles, regulatory pressures on emissions, and the emerging shift toward hydrogen storage. The projected growth to USD 25.48 billion by 2030 underlines that while electrification is growing, liquid and gaseous fuel storage remains critical in the near to mid-term.
Key trends such as lightweight multi-layer plastic tanks, compliance with stricter evaporative standards, and the rise of composite hydrogen tanks will reshape how fuel tanks are designed and manufactured. At the same time, growth in commercial vehicle demand and hydrogen infrastructure development is setting the stage for longer-term transformation.
