Global Limited Slip Differential (LSD) Market Size, Competition Landscape and Supply Chain Research Report 2025

Research Summary

A limited slip differential (LSD) is a type of differential that controls the amount of power that is transferred to the wheels. In a conventional differential, power is divided equally between the two wheels. However, in a limited slip differential, the power is distributed unevenly between the wheels, which helps to prevent wheel spin and maintain better traction on slippery surfaces, such as snow or ice. The LSD achieves this by using a system of clutches and springs. When one wheel starts to lose traction, the clutch on that side begins to slip, which reduces the power that is being transferred to that wheel. This, in turn, increases the power that is being transferred to the wheel with better traction, allowing the vehicle to maintain better control and stability. There are two main types of limited slip differentials: mechanical and electronic. Mechanical LSDs use physical friction plates to limit the amount of power sent to each wheel, while electronic LSDs use sensors and onboard computers to control the flow of power. Limited slip differentials are commonly used in high-performance sports cars and off-road vehicles, but they can be found in many other types of vehicles as well.
