Automotive SoC Market Demand Drivers: What Is Fueling Industry Growth?
The worldwide rise in demand for electric vehicles is set to drive the growth of the automotive SoC market in the coming years. Electric vehicles function either entirely or partially on electric power, utilizing an electric engine rather than a traditional combustion engine. Automotive SoCs are integral to electric cars, contributing to their efficiency, interactivity, and safety, hence the expansion in electric vehicles will necessitate market growth. For instance, reports from the International Energy Agency (IEA), a France-based organization, in April 2023 indicated that over 10 million electric cars were sold globally in 2022, with sales projected to increase by 35% this year, reaching 14 million. This remarkable expansion has elevated the share of electric vehicles in the total car market from approximately 14% in 2022, with expectations to further rise to 18% this year. Furthermore, based on the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario, battery manufacturing projects are expected to adequately fulfill the demand for electric vehicles up to 2030. Therefore, the increasing demand for electric vehicles is a primary catalyst for the automotive SoC market’s growth.
