Market Segmentation

The United Kingdom automotive coolant market share is classified into type and end use.

 

By Type:

The United Kingdom automotive coolant market is divided by type into ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol. Among these, the ethylene glycol segment held the largest revenue market share in 2024 and is predicted to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period. Superior thermal performance characteristics, affordable solution, widespread adoption by both manufacturers and for aftermarket maintenance, cost effectiveness, and widely used as the primary base fluid all contribute to the ethylene glycol segment's largest share and higher spending on sodium lauryl ether sulfate when compared to other type.

 

By End Use:

The United Kingdom automotive coolant market is divided by end use into passenger car, commercial vehicle, two wheelers, and OTR. Among these, the passenger car segment dominated the share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period. The passenger car segment dominates because of high demand for coolant, higher maintenance cycle, requiring regular coolant changes to prevent corrosion and overheating, rapid urbanization, and increased passenger car ownership rates with sustainability in United Kingdom.
