What Has Been The Evolution of the Automotive Software Market in Recent Years?
The automotive software market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the automotive software market has been expanding swiftly in the past few years. The market which stands at $30.15 billion in 2024 is predicted to surge to $34.92 billion in 2025, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.8%. The impressive growth recorded in the historical period could be linked to the consumers' need for connectivity, regulatory norms pertaining to emissions and safety, advancement in in-car entertainment, demand for fuel economy, the worldwide integration of automotive supply chains and the rising intricacy in vehicle systems.
How Will the Automotive Software Market Size Evolve over the Forecast Period?
The Automotive Software market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of automotive software is anticipated to witness a significant surge in the upcoming years, reaching an estimated value of $63.4 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.1%.
This growth during the predicted period can be credited to the continuous evolution of business models in mobility services, a rising demand for personalised user experiences, a heightened focus on data security and privacy, improved predictive maintenance, and incessant upgrades and retrofitting. Major trendsetters for the projected period encompass software-defined vehicles, the growing intricacy of in-car entertainment systems, cybersecurity measures for connected vehicles, the integration of over-the-air (OTA) updates, and an emphasis on user experience (UX) design.
Which Factors Are Boosting Growth In The Automotive Software Market?
The acceleration in the use of connected cars is anticipated to boost the progression of the automotive software market. A connected car is characterized by its ability to communicate bi-directionally with external systems. Multiple devices, both within the vehicle and externally, can connect to the internet, exchanging data with the car. The software used in these connected cars interacts with the internet through an onboard connectivity system inside the car, offering sophisticated features like internet access, remote vehicle systems control, and enhanced security. A case in point is a study conducted by the American tech firm Cisco, suggesting that by 2025, around 2 billion connected vehicles will be on global roads, attributable to the technology in new cars and supplementary market equipment. This growing uptake of connected cars is subsequently fueling the automotive software market.
