Introduction

Abstract

Report Summary

From being a niche product only a few years ago, many people now view electric vehicles as the future (or even the saviour!) of the automotive industry. Numerous vehicle manufacturers already offer hybrid electric vehicles and many have plans to introduce battery electric vehicles. Governments around the world are investing money to support development efforts.

This report quantifies the opportunity for automotive systems and semiconductor manufacturers in hybrid and battery electric vehicle powertrains. It was compiled after extensive research and industry consultation by two senior analysts working for over 6 months on the subject.

• Dedicated chapter on the market for electric vehicles which shows forecasts for different electric vehicle types by region, alternative forecast scenarios, market shares and profiles of electric vehicle manufacturers.
• Dedicated chapter on the market for systems used in electric vehicles including batteries, motor/generators, inverters, DC/DC converters and electric air conditioning compressors.
• Dedicated chapter on semiconductors used in electric vehicle powertrains which shows the market for a range of different semiconductor types by system.
• All tables accompanied by narrative explaining trends and assumptions.
• Data complied from primary research with vehicle manufacturers, system suppliers, semiconductor suppliers, suppliers of electric vehicle infrastructure and electricity generation companies.
• Base year data for 2008 and 2009 and forecasts out to 2020.

In summary, this report provides management, marketing, development and technical executives with the most comprehensive analysis available on the emerging and fast moving market for systems and semiconductors used in electric vehicles.
