Three key trends-namely, autonomy, electrification, and connected mobility-are expected to emerge as major revenue drivers. These trends will play a pivotal role in driving the demand for electronic content per car, subsequently driving the demand for semiconductors in the automotive space. For decades, ICE or internal combustion engine-driven cars have been the primary source of innovation in the automotive space. However, with the growing adoption of autonomy and electrification in the automotive industry, the demand for high-tech cars with improved functionality, backed by semiconductors and chips, is expected to gain momentum.
According to the World Health Organization, approximately 1.24 million individuals die as a result of road traffic crashes each year. If this situation persists, road traffic crashes would become the seventh leading cause of death by 2030. This has triggered an increased focus on the prevention of accidents through the implementation of active safety measures. As a result, active safety features are increasingly being integrated into vehicles to help avoid collisions and accidents. Amongst the vehicle safety provisions, crash avoidance technology, including automatic emergency braking systems for passenger vehicles, is set to remain a standard feature for a majority of the new vehicles produced from 2022 to 2023. Thus, with the rise in the adoption of vehicle safety systems, the market for automotive semiconductors is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent measures undertaken to control the infection rate created significant business volatility, which negatively impacted industries worldwide. Various industries have witnessed a major setback due to the pandemic, including the automobile semiconductor industry. Sales of semiconductors for automotive applications mainly depend on the vehicle sales volume and the level of vehicle electrification and digitization. Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a sharp decline in automotive sales. The deteriorating sales of passenger and commercial vehicles negatively impacted the automotive semiconductor market growth. Moreover, the electric vehicle industry also faced delays in production and raw material supplies due to looming delays in international export and import shipments.
