Report summary
Of the near 100 million b/d in global oil demand, fuel use from light vehicles and two-wheelers accounts for over 28 million b/d. The sector is therefore pivotal to the oil market outlook. While the electrification of the auto fleet causes demand to decline post 2030, the medium term is largely determined by trends seen in today's auto market – the type of cars being bought and their fuel efficiency. This insight highlights a few of these trends, brought together across five different locations. These include: 1. The shift of Japan's auto fleet towards fuel-efficient HEVs and "mini" ICE vehicles 2. Europe's switch to gasoline cars as diesel falls out of favour 3. The rising popularity of crossover SUVs in the US 4. China's gaining momentum in EV and SUV sales 5. India's sleeper role of two-wheelers and the country's shift to mid-size cars.
