Vehicle-to-vehicle communication
The ability of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication to wirelessly share information regarding the position and speed of surrounding vehicles has great potential for reducing crashes, easing traffic congestion, and improving the environment. However, the most significant benefits are realized only when all automobiles interact with one another.
These V2V communication messages can trace dangers obscured by traffic, terrain, or weather and have a range of more than 300 meters. V2V communication technology has the potential to enhance the efficiency of vehicle safety systems and save lives. As per the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, Road accidents in India claimed approximately 1.5 lakh lives and injured over 3.8 lakh people in the year 2021.
The government should impose strict regulations on vehicle safety systems to promote growth.
Consumers' growing awareness of vehicle safety has increased the requirement for features like cruise control and blind-spot detection, which can assist drivers and decrease the number of accidents. Furthermore, the alarming rise in fatalities as a result of vehicular accidents has forced various governments to impose stringent laws and actively encourage the advancement of vehicle safety systems.
As a result, the growing adoption of radar-based software in automobiles is expected during the projected period as a means of improving vehicle safety.
Restriction of the internal combustion engine (ICE) makes way for EVs.
The government's decision to ban imports of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles for approximately eight months has benefited electric vehicles (EVs). Imports of EVs increased by 64.77% due to reduced customs duties as well as other taxes on imports and sales compared to ICE vehicles.
According to the Department of Commerce, imports of SUVs and cars increased by 60.75%, while imports of two-wheelers increased by 243.80%. The rise of electric four-wheelers up to 100kW has primarily driven growth in the car and SUV sectors.
In November 2021, India initiated the e-AMRIT portal as a one-stop target for all EV-related information, such as investment opportunities, charging locations, subsidies, and policies in the segment.
The security risks associated with radar-based technology are limiting its adoption.
The signal structure used by automotive radar is specific, and they lack any inherent authentication, making technology vulnerable to spoofing attacks. A successful spoofing attack can severely compromise the integrity of car occupants by effectively causing the car to stop, change direction, or collide within a short period of time by breaching the target radar. Current technology is based primarily on frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) systems.
However, as the number of vehicles equipped with such systems grows, FMCW interference in congested areas is predicted to be challenging because it can cause significant performance degradation. As a result, security risks associated with the automotive industry, such as spoofing and interference, are probable to limit this technology's adoption during the anticipated period.
Rising demand for vehicle safety features
The popularity of safety features like collision prevention systems, parking assistance, traction control, lane change warnings, and so on is increasing as the number of road accidents increases worldwide. Automotive radar is a significant component of the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), which is able to recognize and classify objects on the highway and warn the driver of potential hazards and accidents.
Furthermore, this system can automatically stop the vehicle based on the highway conditions. Road traffic accidents are a leading cause of death worldwide.
In 2023, medium-range and short-range radar had the largest market revenue and was anticipated to be the fastest-growing sector. These sectors of radars are commonly used in vehicle security systems to detect objects in the vehicle's vicinity. Blind spot identification, lane shift assistance, as well as parking assistance are the features offered by the systems. Reduced radar prices and the growing demand for more radars per system for increasing efficiency are expected to drive the market during the projected period.
Since long-range radars are widely used in ACC, the growing use of ACC in mid-priced automobiles is anticipated to propel growth in the long-range radar sector during the projected period. In 2023, the sector accounted for a significant share.
The passenger car sector is predicted to expand faster than the commercial vehicles market. Increasing vehicle safety awareness among mid-priced vehicle owners is the key driver of the segment's growth. Luxury SUVs' enhanced autonomous safety processes and comfort, as well as benefits like greater adaptability, more space, as well as excellent comfort in comparison to sedans, are influencing customer preference towards small SUVs in progress.
Hyundai announced an INR 1,000 crore investment to build inexpensive EVs in February 2021. The automotive radar industry is poised to increase over the projected period as more passenger cars are outfitted with radar-based safety systems.
Furthermore, the expanding logistics industry and brisk e-commerce have boosted sales of commercial vehicles. The surge in demand for electric cars to reduce line emigration, stringent regulations and laws governing automotive emigration, and rising consumer awareness of the importance of electric vehicles in reducing emigration are all major contributors to this sector's rapid growth. Rising consumer expectations for vehicle autonomy in commercial vehicles are also expected to drive segment growth.
The considerable expansion of the BEV is primarily attributed to potential advantages such as reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, increased energy security, and reduced local pollutants. BEV-powered EVs depend solely on a battery-powered engine, and the electricity used to charge the car is kept in a huge battery pack that is charged by attaching it to the power grid.
The PHEV sector is anticipated to expand at the fastest pace from 2024 to 2034. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles, or PHEVs, are powered by an engine and an electric motor. They can recharge their batteries via regenerative braking. They differ from conventional hybrids by having bigger batteries and grid-rechargeable plugs.
Due to increasing application in prevalent automotive industries such as the United States, Germany, and China, ACC had the largest market share in 2023. Furthermore, it provides significant benefits in automation and vehicle safety. The ACC systems have been included in the National Transportation Safety Board's top ten vehicle safety improvements. Also, Europe has regarded the ACC system as one of the mandatory safety options for innovative vehicle safety.
On the other hand, The AEB segment is predicted to expand at one of the fastest CAGRs during the expected period. Favorable government initiatives, such as the licensing of radar frequencies as well as increased investment by automakers in the production of low-cost radar-based safety systems, are expected to drive expansion during the projected period.
According to the most recent Euro NCAP rating, vehicles equipped with AEB, in addition to other ADAS technologies such as ACC and FCW, will receive higher marks for overall safety. This regulatory step is expected to boost the demand for RADAR-based AEB even further.
Europe led the worldwide market and is anticipated to expand at a registered CAGR over the projected period. This is attributed to the rising stringency of the European Commission for vehicle safety standards. German automakers produce roughly 70% of luxury vehicles. Furthermore, the country's automotive business invests approximately one-third of its revenue in R&D.
However, due to the low-cost benefits associated with vehicle production, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to emerge as the fastest-growing region. Vehicle sales in the Asia Pacific region have increased in recent years due to increasing disposable income.
The growing awareness of vehicle safety protocols and their benefits is one factor driving the automotive radar market growth. The Latin American industry is expanding because of the considerable support for the usage of the 79 Ghz frequency band for vehicles’ short-range radar. Customers in China are overwhelmingly enthusiastic about electric cars, and 60% are considering purchasing an EV as their next vehicle.
