Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, Indian Automotive Electronics Growth Opportunities, finds that continuous innovation and development in the automotive industry is boosting the demand for automotive electronics. Its increasing use in various vehicular applications, such as active and passive safety, infotainment, body electronics, and advanced driver assistance systems, contributes to its rapid market expansion worldwide, including in India. Short- and medium-term technologies, sensors and actuators in the Indian automotive electronics market will likely unlock opportunities worth $9,214.7 million for suppliers by 2025.
The current automotive industry trends toward connected, autonomous, shared, and electric (CASE) convergence have automotive electronics as the primary enabler,” said Deexeta Mohan Kumar, Research Analyst, Mobility Practice, Frost & Sullivan. “Additionally, Mega Trends such as e-mobility, e-retail, and service marketplaces will further influence automotive electronics and the aftermarket.”
Kumar added: “Government norms on emissions and the shift toward electric vehicles (EVs) propel requirements for automotive electronics components. Further, regulating active safety features like dual airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) will boost India’s demand for automotive electronics.”
India’s EV market is still nascent and is forecast to record a 2.4% CAGR from 2020 to 2025. Electrification is expected to penetrate cars and last-mile connectivity modes like two-wheelers in India by 2030. Frost & Sullivan expects about 70% of two-wheeler fleets and 30% of private two-wheelers to be electric by 2030. For passenger vehicles, 40% of fleets and 15%-20% of private cars will be electric by that time.
