The automotive pcb market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.57 billion in 2025 to $11.4 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in conventional pcb manufacturing processes, early reliance on single-sided pcb designs, expansion of automotive infotainment pcb usage, increased adoption in airbag and safety modules, reliance on standard automotive electronics architectures.

The automotive pcb market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.5 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for multi-layer high-frequency pcbs, increasing deployment of pcbs in ev battery management systems, expansion of adas pcb applications, development of flexible and rigid-flex pcb solutions, rising production of pcbs for connected vehicle platforms. Major trends in the forecast period include development of advanced automated pcb fabrication lines, expansion of ev-oriented high-density pcb architectures, adoption of autonomous vehicle electronics platforms, integration of IoT-enabled smart pcb systems, advancement of secure connected automotive circuit technologies.

The growth of the automotive PCB market is anticipated to be propelled by the increasing demand for autonomous driving. Autonomous driving refers to vehicles capable of operating without human intervention, and it relies on various vehicle functions controlled and managed by automotive Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). These PCBs play a crucial role in overseeing functions such as sensors, processors, and communication systems, providing the required reliability and precision in electronic control for autonomous driving systems. A report from the UK's Department of Transport in August 2022 indicated that approximately 40% of newly purchased cars in the UK might incorporate self-driving capabilities. This projection suggests that the connected and automated vehicles (CAV) market could reach a value of $53.01 billion (£41.7 billion) by 2035. Consequently, the increasing demand for autonomous driving is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the automotive PCB market.

Key companies in the automotive PCB market are prioritizing the development of advanced solutions, such as thermoset laminate materials, to support high-frequency radar applications, improve signal integrity, and enhance overall sensor performance. Thermoset laminate materials are composite substrates made from reinforcing fibers, such as glass cloth, combined with thermosetting resins that permanently harden when cured. For example, in February 2025, Rogers Corporation, a US-based engineered materials company, introduced new RO4830 Plus circuit materials aimed at boosting the performance and reliability of high-frequency automotive radar applications. These materials offer enhanced thermal reliability and dimensional stability, ensuring consistent operation under demanding automotive conditions. Additionally, they provide improved moisture resistance and long-term environmental durability, making them ideal for advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) radar modules.
