The increasing demand for electric vehicles is driving the demand for automotive electronics. Many people are switching from fuel ignited vehicles to electrics vehicles, and this is increasing the demand for systems. It has increased the demand for battery management systems and electric powertrains of electric vehicles. However, apart from the growing demand for electric vehicles, government regulations and funding have also impacted positively the automotive electronics market growth.

Government imposed safety regulations which made automakers around the world improve the safety of vehicles and reduce the number of accidents on the roads, which boosts the demand for automotive electronics. Government safety regulations can also be used to support the development of new technologies, such as electric vehicles, which can improve efficiency and reduce emission from vehicles. For instance, China has laid down regulations focusing on reducing energy consumption of passenger cars and maximizing the sales of new energy vehicles, including plug-in hybrid and fully electric cars. Governments across various countries are providing annual tonnage tax and automobile tax to promote the use of electric vehicles.

Technological advancements have positively impacted the growth of automotive electronics. Advancements in areas such as automotive powertrain electronics, autonomous driving, and connected vehicles. The automotive electronics market forms an essential part of the automotive industry, which provides automakers and goods with efficient and sustainable automotive electronics solutions. The market for automotive electronics is likely to remain focused for industry players and policymakers as urbanization and the demand for automotive vehicles continue to grow.

Parking assistance, electrical suspensions, braking, and steering systems are some of the critical systems incorporated in luxury cars and mid-size cars. Furthermore, the government promotes the adoption of zero-emission vehicles and imposes obligatory safety standards for automotive manufacturers. Governments are also regulating the use of ADAS safety system installations in vehicles. For instance, the New Car Assessment Program mandates advanced active and passive safety systems in China and Europe. Also, the Indian government allows specific low-frequency band usage to help automotive manufacturers use radar-based systems to install ADAS features in vehicles. All these factors are driving the growth of the automotive electronics market.
