Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The market is built upward from two-wheeler production and parc volumes by region, split between original-equipment fitment and aftermarket replacement demand, and multiplied by the realised price of a lighting assembly by light source, halogen, xenon and LED, since a shift toward LED materially changes the value per unit even where unit volumes are flat. Motorcycle, scooter and moped production data by country anchor the OEM volume base; replacement-cycle assumptions drawn from typical lamp service life anchor the aftermarket volume base. That bottom-up build is checked against the disclosed component and lighting-segment revenue of major suppliers named in this report. Where the two diverge, the correction is made to the underlying volume or price assumption feeding the bottom-up build, not by averaging in the top-down figure.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Primary interviews target procurement and sourcing managers at motorcycle and scooter OEMs, purchasing and category managers at tier-one lighting suppliers, and workshop and distributor owners who buy replacement lamps for the aftermarket channel. Regulatory affairs contacts at vehicle homologation bodies are included where a market's daytime running light or auto headlamp-on rule is still being phased in, since the pace of that rollout changes the OEM fitment timeline directly. Sampling weights toward India, China, Indonesia and Vietnam, where two-wheeler production volume is concentrated, with a secondary emphasis on Italy, Germany and Brazil, the largest markets outside Asia Pacific. Aftermarket coverage draws more heavily on workshop-level conversations in markets where replacement demand, not OEM fitment, carries most of the category's revenue.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on national two-wheeler production and registration statistics published by industry associations such as India's SIAM and Indonesia's AISI, UN Comtrade and national customs data under HS code 8512 for lighting equipment shipments, and vehicle homologation and type-approval registers that record when a daytime running light or auto headlamp-on requirement takes effect in a given country. Supplier-side detail comes from the annual reports and investor filings of the publicly listed companies named in the competitive section, cross-checked against trade-press coverage of lighting-segment contract wins and plant capacity announcements in the automotive component press.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built from projected two-wheeler production volume by country, the pace at which LED assemblies replace halogen across OEM fitment and aftermarket replacement, and the rate electric two-wheeler platforms gain share of the parc. It assumes regulatory daytime running light and auto headlamp-on rules already in force stay in place, and that rules still under consideration in additional countries phase in on the schedule set by their own regulators. The one normalisation applied is to the demand pattern some markets showed after 2021, treated as pandemic-era recovery and not projected forward as a trend. For the forecast to hold, electric two-wheeler registrations need to keep gaining share at close to their recent pace.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs are back-tested against recorded two-wheeler production and lighting-component shipment growth for 2020 through 2024, checking that the historical series this report publishes does not diverge from what national production statistics already show for those years. Segment-level shifts, the pace of LED share gains and the split between OEM and aftermarket revenue, are checked against the same industry and supplier sources used in sizing, not accepted from the bottom-up model without independent review. Sensitivities were run on the two assumptions the forecast leans on most, the electric two-wheeler adoption curve and the speed of LED-for-halogen substitution, each tested faster and slower than the base case to confirm the bull and bear range stays wide enough to hold.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is firmest for OEM fitment in India, China and the large Southeast Asian two-wheeler markets, where production volume is closely tracked and LED adoption by major OEMs is disclosed in supplier and vehicle-maker communications. It is weaker for aftermarket revenue in fragmented, cash-heavy distribution markets, where replacement volume is inferred from parc size and lamp service life instead of counted directly, and for the pace of electric two-wheeler lighting uptake, a segment young enough that one large platform launch could shift its share faster than assumed. A sustained fuel-price or subsidy shock that changes two-wheeler purchase volume outright would be the clearest trigger for revision.
