South America Automotive Smart Key Market

Market Introduction

The automotive smart key market in South America includes Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and the Rest of South America. Brazil is one of the fastest-growing countries in the region in terms of industrialization. The governments of other emerging economies in the region are taking several initiatives to support industrial growth. For instance, Argentina is concentrating on attracting FDIs by taking several initiatives such as signing international bilateral agreements and removing restrictions on foreign direct investments (FDIs). Such government initiatives for attracting FDIs are expected to increase the investments in manufacturing industries including the automotive sector. The ongoing initiatives from the regional governments are anticipated to help in the development of businesses in South America with the increasing business activities in urban cities demand for advanced safety technologies, which will further increase the demand for automotive smart keys in South America. Increased production of luxury cars is the major factor driving the growth of the SAM automotive smart key market.

In 2020, Brazil recorded the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases in South America, followed by Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina. Most of the companies in the region suspended vehicle production due to the worsening COVID-19 public health crisis, whereas others opted for the restructuring of their production facilities. The slowdown of sales and reduction in consumer demand resulted in a significant loss for the regional automotive smart key market players. The market in South America witnessed a decline in growth as the majority of stimulus packages deployed by governments were focused on public healthcare and tax relief. However, relaxations in COVID-19-led restrictions and reopening of production facilities are anticipated to promote market recovery in this region in the coming years. A rise in passenger car registrations in Brazil in 2021 with the increase in total annual cars sales by 6.04% than the previous year would provide lucrative growth opportunities for the automotive smart key market players during the forecast period.

Market Overview and Dynamics

The automotive smart key market in SAM is expected to grow from US$ 200.20 million in 2021 to US$ 249.40 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2021 to 2028. The rise of advanced technologies, which use radio frequency (RF) signals and convert them to digital information, has increased the prevalence of smart keys in the automotive sector. Increasing vehicle thefts and demands for advanced and enhanced features have accelerated the development of automotive telematics and advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS), thus, leading to a considerable growth in the market. Telematics is a communication technology that provides navigation, safety, security, and communication in an automobile.

The advanced telematics navigation and tracking systems are increasingly becoming a standard on vehicles. Advanced driving assistance systems in vehicles are estimated to surge due to the increasing awareness about vehicle safety ratings and decreasing component costs. The increasing contribution of high-end technologies in the passenger car segment, attributed to supporting legislation and consumer awareness, is projected to boost the smart keys market in the region.
