Wheel Loaders Market: Key Drivers and Trends
The stabilization of global crude oil prices is one of the key factors that will fuel the growth of the wheel loaders market. The stability in oil prices will increase government spending, and this will lead to restarting pending and delayed infrastructure projects. This will, in turn, revive the demand for construction equipment such as wheel loaders, driving the market growth.
The introduction of telematics in construction is one of the key trends that will drive wheel loaders market growth.
Telematics consists of remote communications and informatics, that are extensively used for fleet tracking or managing a group of vehicles and other assets. Off-road telematics can track the performance and location of both plant and equipment in real-time. On-road telematics provides managers with reporting data that is updated with information related to human resources. Such benefits will lead to the adoption of telematics in the construction industry. As a result of these factors, the market will register a CAGR of over 9% during the forecast period.
