Next-generation in-vehicle networking (IVN) refers to advanced communication systems in modern vehicles that connect various electronic control units (ECUs), sensors, infotainment systems, and other devices within the vehicle. It facilitates high-speed data transfer between these components, supporting functions such as autonomous driving, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), infotainment, and vehicle diagnostics.
The main types of next-generation IVN include infotainment, climate control, navigation, driver assistance systems (DAS), and more. Infotainment systems combine information and entertainment services such as navigation, media playback, and internet connectivity within the vehicle. Connectivity standards used in IVN include Controller Area Network (CAN), Local Interconnect Network (LIN), FlexRay, Radio Frequency (RF), Ethernet, and Media-Oriented Systems Transport (MOST), installed in passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs), and automated guided vehicles (AGVs). The applications of IVN span across powertrain, safety, body electronics, chassis, and infotainment, serving industries such as aerospace, agriculture, automotive, construction, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have increased costs of imported networking chips, connectors, and communication modules used in next generation IVN systems. Passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles in north america and asia pacific are most affected. These impacts have influenced system integration costs. However, tariffs are supporting domestic electronics manufacturing and local supplier development.

The next-generation in-vehicle networking (ivn) market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.36 billion in 2025 to $2.67 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increase in vehicle electronics complexity, growth in infotainment systems, need for reliable in vehicle communication, adoption of CAN and LIN networks, safety system integration.
The next-generation in-vehicle networking (ivn) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.33 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to autonomous vehicle commercialization, connected car ecosystem growth, demand for low latency communication, expansion of V2X systems, software centric vehicle platforms. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of automotive ethernet, growth of high speed data communication, integration of ADAS and autonomous systems, expansion of over the air updates, shift toward zonal architectures.
The rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to drive growth in the next-generation in-vehicle networking (IVN) market. EVs, powered fully or partially by electricity instead of traditional internal combustion engines, are gaining popularity due to their low carbon emissions, reduced operating costs, and contribution to energy independence. As climate concerns grow, both governments and consumers are prioritizing eco-friendly transportation, making EVs an effective solution for reducing air pollution and supporting global carbon-reduction goals. Next-generation IVN systems are essential in EVs, enabling seamless communication between multiple electronic systems, supporting advanced features, and optimizing overall vehicle performance. For instance, in April 2024, the International Energy Agency (IEA), a France-based energy-analysis organization, reported that nearly 14 million new electric cars were registered globally in 2023-a 35% year-on-year increase-accounting for 18% of all cars sold, bringing the total number of EVs on the world's roads to roughly 40 million. Therefore, the growing adoption of EVs is fueling the expansion of the next-generation IVN market.
In the next-generation IVN market, companies are focusing on developing innovative components such as multi-gigabit Ethernet chipsets to improve high-speed automotive connectivity. Multi-gigabit Ethernet chipsets are advanced networking solutions that provide fast, low-power, and scalable data transmission for automotive and industrial applications. For instance, in May 2024, Aeonsemi, a U.S.-based integrated circuit (IC) design company, introduced Nemo, the most comprehensive IEEE 802.3ch-compliant multi-gigabit Ethernet chipset for IVN. Nemo includes the world's first automotive switch with integrated 10GBASE-T1 PHYs, which enables energy-efficient, symmetric, and asymmetric Ethernet connectivity over long distances, reducing power consumption and enhancing performance in next-generation automotive networks.
In April 2024, Microchip Technology Inc., a U.S.-based semiconductor manufacturer, acquired VSI Co. Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is aimed at strengthening Microchip's automotive networking portfolio by incorporating VSI's ASA Motion Link technologies for high-speed camera, sensor, and display connectivity in next-generation software-defined vehicles (SDVs).
