Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 15.9 per cent during the forecast period. This is attributed to development of advanced vehicle-based technologies across the Asian countries.
The global automotive semiconductor industry generated $37.99 billion in 2020, and is expected to garner $113.94 billion by 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 11.8% from 2021 to 2030 (Allied Market Research).
Rapid developments in the automotive industry, surge in demand for safety features in automobiles, and intervention of innovative technologies for advanced user interface (UI) drive the growth of the global automotive semiconductor market. However, operational failures in extreme climatic conditions and high initial cost & complex structure hinder the market growth. On the other hand, increase in demand for electric and hybrid vehicles and technological advancements and innovation in advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) technology present new opportunities in the coming years.
The passenger car segment contributed to the highest share in 2020, accounting for nearly four-fifths of the global automotive semiconductor market, and is estimated to continue its lead position throughout the forecast period. This is attributed to increased sales volume of passenger cars across the globe. However, the light commercial vehicle segment is estimated to manifest the highest CAGR of 13.9% from 2021 to 2030. This is due to increased application of advanced technologies in LCVs worldwide.
Based on application, the telematics and infotainment segment accounted for the highest share in 2020, contributed to nearly one-third of the global automotive semiconductor market, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. Moreover, this segment is estimated to portray the fastest CAGR of 14.0% from 2021 to 2030. This is due to increased utilization in vehicles with changes in user preferences. The research also analyzes the segments including powertrain, safety, chassis, and body electronics.
Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 15.9% during the forecast period. This is attributed to development of advanced vehicle-based technologies across the Asian countries.
North America accounted for the highest market share in 2020, contributing to around two-fifths of the global automotive semiconductor market. This is due to increased production and sales of automotive vehicles that are equipped with advanced components & features including telematics, ADAS, and in-vehicle connected services. However, Europe is projected to contribute to the highest share in terms of revenue by 2030.
