Automotive Electronics Market Outlook (2022-2033)

Electrification and ADAS Adoption

Currently, these are the two main factors leading to a substantial rise in the automotive electronics market: electrified powertrains are one, and a rapid adoption of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) is the other. Because of their nature, pure electric and plugin hybrid vehicles have to be equipped with power electronics, inverters, onboard chargers, DCDC converters, and battery management systems; therefore, the number of semiconductors in an electric vehicle is hundreds of times higher than in a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. One of the main reasons for such a rapid electrification of the vehicle fleet is a global policy framework of emission standards and OEM decarbonization targets, which, in turn, leads to a huge market for high voltage electronics and thermal management control. Meanwhile, safety requirements and customer expectations are the major reasons of the high adoption rate of ADAS features such as automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and parking assistance that are nowadays available in the mass market segments. These intelligent systems employ radar, cameras, ultrasonic sensors, lidar, and high, performance ECUs capable of real, time perception and control. Besides that, telematics and over the air update capabilities are some of the new electronic features in the vehicle that keep on extending the footprint as the vehicle becomes more connected.

Software‑Defined and Connected Vehicles

A major opportunity is in the transition to software, defined, connected cars that are backed by centralized and zonal electronic architectures. By OEMs merging a large number of distributed ECUs into a few powerful domain and central compute units, they can make wiring simpler, have less hardware complexity and separate hardware lifecycles from software which is changing very fast. Therefore, continuous over, the, air feature deployment becomes possible from infotainment upgrades to ADAS enhancements and energy, management improvements thus there is the creation of recurring revenue streams through subscriptions and digital services. Those electronics suppliers who provide scalable compute platforms, middleware, and cybersecurity solutions that are functionally safety compliant can increase their take of the pie substantially and become key technology partners rather than simply vendors of commodity components. Fleet management, usage, based insurance, diagnostics, and in, vehicle commerce, which are some of the connectivity advantages, require robust telematics and secure data pipelines. Besides that, the convergence of automotive and consumer electronics ecosystems provides the customers with the integration of app ecosystems, voice assistants, and cloud services, thus they are demanding more flexible, high, bandwidth infotainment and networking hardware. The companies which are able to combine both hardware and software skills, are open, platform supporters, and work with cloud providers are the ones who will gain when cars, as nodes in bigger mobility and data, services networks, become more and more operationally interconnected.

The geographical scope of the automotive electronics market report is divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America. The automotive electronics market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period.

The Asia-Pacific Automotive electronics market is segmented into China, Japan, South Korea, India, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan, Bangladesh, and the Rest of Asia. China, Japan, South Korea, and India. the four largest contributors and the ones with the most significant growth potential. China is the biggest automotive manufacturer in the world and a major hub for the production of electric vehicles globally, which in turn is creating a strong demand for power electronics, battery, management systems, ADAS modules, and infotainment units. Japan and South Korea are home to the leading OEMs and tier, one supplier that introduce the most advanced safety, comfort, and connectivity technologies, such as radar, cameras, head, up displays, and integrated cockpit platforms. The explosive growth of the passenger, car and two, wheeler market in India is leading to the increased use of basic safety, telematics, and body, electronics features, with emission and crash, safety regulations getting stricter to support this trend. The Asia Pacific region as a whole is witnessing a rise in the demand for electronics due to government incentives for EVs, the localization of semiconductor and battery manufacturing, and the investments in charging infrastructure. North America is still a very important region because of the presence of premium OEMs, EV specialists, and technology companies that are leading the way in connectivity and autonomous, driving features. Europe is a leader in implementing tough environmental and safety regulations, which is a major factor in the rapid ADAS and xEV technology adoption by the German, French, and Scandinavian automakers. The rest, of, world markets, such as Latin America and the Middle East & Africa, are smaller but still significant in terms of aftermarket electronics, basic safety upgrades, and new EV programs, which are mostly supplied by global manufacturers that operate local assembly plants.
