An automotive intercooler is a heat exchanger device utilized for cooling the air entering the carburetor or fuel injection system. It is used as an air-to-air or air-to-water cooler for supercharged and turbocharged internal combustion engines to extract waste heat from the compressed air. It assists in increasing the efficiency of the induction system, improving combustion and enhancing the reliability of the engine. It also helps maximize the fuel economy and reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the vehicle.

The growing automotive industry represents one of the significant factors impelling the automotive intercooler market growth. Besides this, the escalating demand for sports cars that incorporate turbocharged engines for high speed is strengthening the market growth. Turbochargers also help in downsizing the engine, which, in turn, helps offer improved output and performance. Moreover, due to the growing environmental concerns, governments of numerous countries are implementing stringent regulations on carbon dioxide (CO2) emission. Consequently, there is an increase in the sales of automotive intercoolers across the globe. Apart from this, the leading players are focusing on increasing research and development (R&D) projects to introduce innovative products with improved functionality.
