Steer-by-Wire Has Crossed From Concept to Series Production and Will Grow More Than Elevenfold by 2035
Spending on automotive steer-by-wire systems totals USD 486.40 Million in 2025 by Radial Insights' estimate, climbing to USD 621.62 Million in 2026 and USD 5,653.30 Million by 2035, a 27.80% CAGR as Chinese, Japanese and German automakers move the technology into volume programs.
A steer-by-wire system removes the mechanical steering column between the steering wheel and the front wheels. A steering feedback actuator at the wheel simulates road feel, a road wheel actuator moves the rack, and redundant control units, power supplies and sensors connect the two. This report covers complete front-axle steer-by-wire systems and their components sold to vehicle manufacturers for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and off-highway and industrial machines. Conventional electric power steering, rear-axle steering actuators that work alongside a mechanical front column, and aftermarket parts are excluded.
The automotive steer-by-wire systems market has a short commercial history. Tesla put steer-by-wire into the Cybertruck, ZF entered series production for the Nio ET9 with deliveries starting in March 2025, Toyota added the system to the updated Lexus RZ during 2025, and Nexteer began series production for a Chinese new energy vehicle maker in April 2026. Mercedes-Benz has confirmed a production launch in 2026. China released the national steering standard GB 17675-2025 in December 2025, giving automakers a clear certification path.
Electric vehicles are the natural home for steer-by-wire because they already carry high-voltage architectures and centralized software. Vehicles at automation Level 3 and above form the fastest-growing segment at a 41.20% CAGR, because a steering system without a mechanical column lets the wheel retract when the car drives itself. By region, Asia Pacific (APAC) holds 46.20% of 2025 value and is also the fastest-growing region at a 30.16% CAGR.
Cost, functional safety approval and driver acceptance remain the main brakes on adoption, but each new program lowers unit costs and builds the regulatory record that later programs rely on.

Software, Battery Electric Cars and Higher Automation Levels Pull Steer-by-Wire Growth Ahead
Growth in the automotive steer-by-wire systems market is uneven. Passenger car and software segments expand fastest, while off-highway machines, which adopted electro-hydraulic steer-by-wire years ago, grow more slowly from a mature base.
| Dimension | Segment | CAGR 2025-2035 |
|---|---|---|
| Component | Steering Feedback Actuator | 26.40% |

| Automation Level | Level 2 and Level 2+ | 25.90% |
| Automation Level | Level 3 and Above | 41.20% |
Control Units and Software Gain Value Faster Than Actuators
Road wheel actuators carry the largest hardware cost because they must move the rack with full redundancy, and they grow at 27.10%. Steering feedback actuators grow at 26.40% as suppliers standardize designs across programs. Electronic control units and software grow at 30.80% because each automaker wants its own variable ratio and road-feel tuning, and dual controllers with ASIL D certification command higher prices. Sensors, including the torque and angle sensors Forvia Hella makes in Recklinghausen and Xiamen, grow at 28.20%.
Passenger Cars Drive Volume as Off-Highway Machines Mature
Passenger cars grow at 31.50% as the Nio ET9, Lexus RZ and a 2026 Mercedes-Benz model join the Tesla Cybertruck in production. Commercial vehicles grow at 29.40% because autonomous trucking and robotaxi platforms need actuators that software can command directly. Off-highway and industrial vehicles grow at 9.60%: forklifts, tractors and loaders from suppliers such as Danfoss Power Solutions already use electro-hydraulic steer-by-wire, so growth there tracks machine output.
Battery Electric Platforms Absorb Most New Programs
Battery electric vehicles expand at 30.90% and plug-in hybrid and range-extended vehicles at 29.20%, while combustion and full hybrid vehicles grow at only 14.30%. All of the production programs launched in 2025 and 2026 sit on electric platforms, where high-voltage wiring and zonal computing make a redundant by-wire actuator easier to package.
Higher Automation Levels Need a Steering Column That Can Disappear
Level 2 and Level 2+ vehicles grow at 25.90% and form most of today's demand. Level 3 and above grows at 41.20% because a retractable or stowable steering wheel, which Bosch and Arnold NextG cited as a goal of their 2023 alliance, is only possible once the mechanical column is removed.

Market Dynamics
Market Trends
Chinese Automakers Are Moving First
ZF began series production of its next-generation steer-by-wire system for the Nio ET9 in early 2025, with customer deliveries scheduled from March 2025, and Nexteer launched its first series program with an unnamed Chinese new energy vehicle maker in April 2026. Nexteer lists BYD, Xiaomi, Changan, Li Auto, Chery, Great Wall, Geely and Xpeng among its Chinese customers, a sign of how many domestic brands are evaluating the technology.
Standards Are Catching Up With the Hardware
China released the national steering standard GB 17675-2025 on December 2, 2025, developed with input from the Chassis-by-Wire Standard Research Group in which Nexteer has participated since 2023. In January 2026 Nexteer reported sponsoring a coalition meeting of that group, which is drafting further chassis-by-wire rules.
Premium Brands Use Steer-by-Wire to Redesign the Cockpit
Lexus announced in March 2025 that the updated RZ would offer steer-by-wire with a yoke-style wheel and a 200-degree lock-to-lock range, standard on the RZ 550e F Sport. Mercedes-Benz confirmed in April 2025 that its system, tested over more than one million kilometers on benches and roads, would reach a production vehicle in 2026.
Redundancy Architectures Are Converging
Nexteer's production system uses dual controllers, dual power supplies, multiple communication links and dual actuation paths, and received ASIL D functional safety approval from Germany's accreditation body DAkkS in late 2025. Suppliers are converging on this fail-operational design, which lowers the engineering cost for each new automaker program.
Restraints and Challenges
System Cost Is Still Far Above Electric Power Steering
A fully redundant steer-by-wire system needs two actuators, two or more controllers and duplicated power supplies, so it costs several times more than a column-mounted electric power steering unit. Until volumes reach hundreds of thousands of units per supplier, automakers will limit the feature to flagship and performance trims.
Functional Safety Approval Takes Years
Steering is a safety-critical function with no mechanical fallback, so every system must meet ASIL D under ISO 26262. Nexteer's April 2026 production release notes that certification came only in late 2025, after years of joint work with the automaker.
Regulation Differs by Market
China has a published national standard in GB 17675-2025, and UN Regulation No. 79 governs steering equipment in Europe and many other markets, but rules for steering systems without a mechanical link are still being refined. Automakers selling in several regions face extra testing and documentation for each market.
Driver Acceptance Is Unproven at Scale
Variable ratios and yoke-style wheels change how a car feels. Early buyers of the Lexus RZ and Tesla Cybertruck have accepted the change, but mainstream buyers may resist, and automakers will keep round wheels and conventional ratios on most models until feedback data build confidence.
Growth Drivers
Electric Platforms Make By-Wire Steering Easier to Package
Every steer-by-wire program in production in 2025 and 2026 sits on an electric platform: the Tesla Cybertruck, the Nio ET9, the Lexus RZ and the Chinese NEV supplied by Nexteer. Electric vehicles already carry zonal controllers and high-voltage power, and removing the steering column frees space for batteries and crash structures. Nexteer counts seven global automakers and eight Chinese brands among its steering customers, and ZF reports deals with two Chinese carmakers plus Mercedes-Benz. Radial Insights estimates that the shift of steering programs onto EV architectures contributes about 9 percentage points of the market's 27.80% annual growth.
Automated Driving Needs a Steering System Software Can Command
Level 3 systems must be able to steer the car without driver input and hand control back safely. A steer-by-wire rack responds directly to software commands, and Nexteer's production system includes an open interface that acts as the actuation layer for ADAS and autonomous driving. Mercedes-Benz, which already sells Level 3 Drive Pilot in Germany and the US, plans its first steer-by-wire production car in 2026. As Level 3 and above vehicles grow at 41.20% a year, this driver supplies roughly 7 points of the market's CAGR.
Clear Rules in China Unlock Volume
China built 34.53 million vehicles in 2025, and the release of GB 17675-2025 in December 2025 gives Chinese automakers a defined path to certify steering systems without a mechanical link. Chinese brands launch new models every 18 to 24 months, far faster than Western peers, so a supportive standard turns into production programs quickly. Radial Insights attributes close to 6 points of global annual growth to Chinese adoption, which is also why APAC's own value grows at 30.16% a year.
Opportunities
Integrated Chassis-by-Wire Modules
Automakers want steering, braking and suspension controlled by one domain computer. Suppliers that can combine steer-by-wire with brake-by-wire and active suspension, as ZF, Bosch and HL Mando aim to do, can sell full chassis modules worth far more than a steering system alone.
Robotaxi and Autonomous Truck Platforms
Purpose-built robotaxis and driverless delivery vehicles may have no steering wheel at all. These fleets need fail-operational road wheel actuators and controllers but no feedback unit, creating a separate product line for suppliers with proven redundancy.
Asia Pacific Leads Steer-by-Wire Spending and Grows Fastest as Chinese EV Brands Adopt First
Asia Pacific (APAC)
Asia Pacific (APAC) accounts for a 46.20% share of the automotive steer-by-wire systems market, worth USD 224.72 Million in 2025, and is forecast to reach USD 3,136.25 Million by 2035 at a 30.16% CAGR. The Nio ET9 and the Chinese NEV supplied by Nexteer since April 2026 anchor current volume, and China's GB 17675-2025 standard from December 2025 supports further launches. Japan adds demand through the Lexus RZ.
North America
North America holds 24.10% of 2025 value, or USD 117.22 Million, rising to USD 853.46 Million by 2035 at a 21.96% CAGR. The Tesla Cybertruck accounts for most current North American volume, and the Lexus RZ added steer-by-wire availability in the region during 2025. Growth is slower than in Asia because few other North American programs have been announced.
Europe
Europe represents 22.80% of 2025 value, worth USD 110.90 Million, and grows to USD 1,367.69 Million by 2035 at a 28.56% CAGR. Mercedes-Benz plans a production launch in 2026, ZF and Schaeffler develop systems in Germany, and the updated Lexus RZ with steer-by-wire reaches UK buyers in the first quarter of 2026.
Latin America
Latin America holds a 2.90% share, or USD 14.11 Million in 2025, and reaches USD 125.80 Million by 2035 at a 24.46% CAGR. Current demand comes mainly from off-highway and agricultural machines in Brazil and Argentina that use electro-hydraulic steer-by-wire.
Middle East
The Middle East accounts for 2.30% of 2025 value, worth USD 11.19 Million, and grows to USD 103.86 Million by 2035 at a 24.96% CAGR. Imports of premium Chinese and German EVs into the Gulf states and robotaxi pilots in the UAE support demand.
Africa
Africa holds a 1.70% share, or USD 8.27 Million in 2025, reaching USD 65.33 Million by 2035 at a 22.96% CAGR. Mining and agricultural machinery fitted with steer-by-wire dominate current African demand.

Two Suppliers Already Ship in Volume While Others Race to Win First Programs
The automotive steer-by-wire systems market is at an early stage, and only a handful of suppliers have systems in series production. Incumbent electric power steering suppliers hold an advantage because they own rack, motor and control know-how and existing automaker relationships, but specialists in redundancy, sensors and semiconductors capture growing value.
Suppliers in Series Production
ZF Friedrichshafen is in series production for the Nio ET9 and has contracts with two Chinese carmakers and Mercedes-Benz, whose program starts in 2026. Nexteer Automotive launched its first series program in April 2026 for a Chinese NEV maker and counts BMW, Ford, GM, Stellantis, Toyota and Volkswagen among its global steering customers. Both companies combine steering hardware with in-house software for variable ratio and road-feel simulation.
Established Steering Suppliers Preparing Launches
Bosch formed an alliance with Arnold NextG in 2023 to bring multi-redundant steer-by-wire to commercial production by the middle of the decade. JTEKT, one of the largest electric power steering makers, supplies Japanese automakers and develops by-wire systems for them. Schaeffler bought full control of its drive-by-wire joint venture with Paravan and signed a steer-by-wire cooperation with Geely's Qingwei Technology. HL Mando, Thyssenkrupp and Hyundai Mobis each have steer-by-wire systems in development for Korean, European and Chinese customers.
Component and Semiconductor Specialists
Forvia Hella supplies steering torque and angle sensors for steer-by-wire systems from plants in Germany and China. Infineon Technologies provides the safety microcontrollers and power semiconductors that redundant controllers require. Arnold NextG brings fail-operational control architecture that helps approval authorities sign off systems for public roads.
Off-Highway Specialists
Danfoss Power Solutions leads electro-hydraulic steer-by-wire for tractors, loaders and material handling machines, a segment where the technology has been in use for years and where growth tracks equipment output rather than new adoption.

Primary Interview Insights
When will steer-by-wire reach cost parity with electric power steering?
Steering suppliers told us parity is unlikely before 2032, but the cost gap should halve once annual volumes per platform pass 200,000 units. Most expect trim-level options rather than standard fitment until then.
What is the hardest part of bringing steer-by-wire to production?
Engineers said functional safety validation takes longer than hardware development. Achieving ASIL D with fail-operational behavior required two to three years of joint testing with the automaker.
Which automakers are moving fastest?
Suppliers said Chinese EV brands issue requests for quotation fastest and accept new cockpit layouts more readily. European premium brands follow, while US mass-market brands remain cautious.
How do drivers react to variable-ratio steering?
Automaker product planners told us drivers adapt within days, and many prefer the reduced hand-over-hand motion in parking. Some buyers still dislike yoke-style wheels, so round wheels will remain common.
How does steer-by-wire support automated driving?
ADAS engineers said a by-wire rack responds to software commands without fighting a mechanical column. They expect Level 3 programs launching after 2027 to specify steer-by-wire by default.
