Download Automotive Logistics’ inaugural ASEAN report to unlock South-East Asia’s next decade of automotive supply chain growth.
As global trade rebalances amid protectionist headwinds, the automotive industry is rethinking its supply chains and increasingly looking to South-East Asia. The ASEAN-6 –Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Singapore – are emerging as critical production and logistics hubs, fuelled by EV investment and accelerating infrastructure growth.
The inaugural report from Automotive Logistics’ intelligence provides an objective, data-driven and independent analysis of ASEAN’s automotive logistics landscape, combining original research, market forecasts and strategic insights across 2026-2036.
The report is designed for logistics service providers developing regional strategies, automotive OEMs and Tier suppliers assessing localisation and EV logistics readiness, investors and consultancies seeking independent validation of ASEAN’s growth trajectory, and industry associations or policymakers shaping infrastructure and trade frameworks for future growth.
Key findings:
The ASEAN automotive logistics market is projected to expand from $11.6 billion in 2026 to $24.96 billion by 2036, driven by regional manufacturing expansion and EV supply chain investment.
EVs now account for 13% of ASEAN passenger vehicle sales (2024), with Thailand and Indonesia emerging as key battery and EV production hubs. Specialised logistics – battery handling, temperature-controlled transport and reverse logistics – are becoming core competencies.
Vietnam’s automotive logistics market is forecast to grow at a 10.4% CAGR, while Indonesia’s rises 9.9% annually – outpacing mature markets like Thailand and Malaysia.
Fragmented customs frameworks, inconsistent border procedures and underdeveloped multimodal networks add friction to cross-border logistics, but also create opportunities for integration, investment and digital transformation.
The rapid entry of Chinese brands such as BYD and Chery is transforming supply chains, accelerating EV adoption, and driving demand for agile, regional logistics partnerships.
