The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emergence of autonomous vehicles, electric vehicle infotainment enhancement, personalization and customization, subscription-based services, real-time updates and over-the-air updates. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of advanced connectivity, ai and machine learning integration, 5g connectivity, IoT integration, voice and gesture control.
The automotive infotainment market is poised for significant growth, primarily driven by the increasing adoption of connected cars equipped with enhanced infotainment systems. Consumers are gravitating towards connected vehicles featuring advanced infotainment, exemplified by Tata Motors achieving a milestone by integrating 500,000 vehicles onto its Connected Vehicle Platform (CVP), catering comprehensively to their commercial, passenger, and electric vehicle lineup. This surge in connected car adoption underscores the driving force behind the expansion of the automotive infotainment industry.
The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is anticipated to drive the growth of the automotive infotainment market in the future. Electric vehicles are powered by electricity rather than traditional internal combustion engines (ICEs) that use gasoline or diesel. Automotive infotainment systems are utilized in electric vehicles to provide information, entertainment, and connectivity while also enhancing energy efficiency and range management. For instance, in March 2024, the International Energy Agency, a France-based intergovernmental organization, reported that approximately 14 million electric cars were registered worldwide in 2023, reflecting a 35% increase from the 10.5 million registered in 2022. Electric vehicles accounted for 18% of total car sales in 2023, rising from 14% in 2022. This growth indicates strong momentum in the EV market, with weekly registrations in 2023 surpassing 250,000. Battery electric vehicles constituted 70% of the total electric car stock in 2023. Thus, the growing adoption of electric vehicles is fueling the expansion of the automotive infotainment market.
A notable trend reshaping the automotive infotainment landscape is technological advancement, particularly evidenced by the introduction of Android-based in-car entertainment systems. Pioneer India Electronics Pvt. Ltd., an India-based provider of car equipment, unveiled Android-based infotainment systems tailored for car original equipment manufacturers in July 2023. These innovative systems promise a more intuitive and user-friendly experience for car owners, offering compatibility with various smartphone devices and streamlined access to favorite apps, music, and navigation services directly from the car's dashboard. Equipped with voice command support, these systems enhance safety and convenience, enabling drivers to manage entertainment and communication options while on the road more safely and conveniently. This integration of cutting-edge technology underpins the evolving landscape of automotive infotainment systems, catering to modern consumer preferences for connectivity and user experience.
Major companies in the automotive infotainment industry are embracing a strategic partnership approach to deliver integrated, innovative solutions that enhance in-car connectivity and user experiences. Strategic partnerships involve companies leveraging each other's strengths and resources to achieve mutual benefits and success. For example, in February 2024, L&T Technology Services, an India-based provider of digital engineering, development, and consultancy services, collaborated with Marelli, a Japan-based automotive technology company. This partnership introduces Marelli's Digital Twin solutions, marking a significant advancement in automotive software development and a reduction in prototype costs. This collaboration is driving remarkable efficiencies in automotive software development and shaping the future of automotive infotainment with L&T's advanced digital twin solutions.
In April 2022, Qualcomm, a U.S.-based global leader in semiconductor technology known for its innovative chips and wireless solutions, acquired Veoneer for $4.1 billion. This acquisition combined their complementary expertise to create a more formidable presence in the automotive technology market. As a result, Qualcomm expanded its capabilities in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving, while Veoneer gained access to Qualcomm's advanced semiconductor technology. Veoneer, also a U.S.-based company, is a leading automotive technology firm that specializes in active safety systems. They develop and manufacture components such as radar, cameras, and software used in ADAS and autonomous driving technologies.
