The industry's performance closely relates to the automotive sector, since most manufacturers rely on supply contracts with automakers and other motor vehicle producers to generate revenue. Those contracts leave little room to raise rates and industry selling prices have risen only 7.2% over the past five years, so growth has come from volume and content rather than pricing. Larger trucks and sport utility vehicles offer more seating and trim per unit, and heated and ventilated seating, ambient lighting and integrated electronics have raised the value of a fitted interior. Domestic plants also captured ground from abroad, with imports falling from 22.3% of domestic demand to 19.3% while holding flat in dollar terms as Section 232 tariffs of 25.0% on covered automobile parts changed the arithmetic for automakers. Revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 4.3% to $36.5 billion through the end of 2026, including 2.6% growth in 2026 alone.
