The Global Automotive Ethernet Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 23.5% during the forecast period (2020-2025).

The increased deployment of Advanced Driver Assistant System (ADAS), infotainment, rapid progress in the development of autonomous vehicles, and the low cost of ethernet has led to the immense growth of automotive ethernet as it serves the purpose of connecting in-vehicle electronic system efficiently as compared to traditional harness.

The component segment is led by ethernet hardware as it supports high bandwidth applications and reduces labor cost and cable cost. For instance, In February 2020, NXP launched a multi-gigabyte ethernet switch named "SJA1110" that enables automotive manufacturers to deliver high-speed networks required for evolving connected cars.

The growing demand for integration of personal mobile devices, web-based services, and the new trend of Human Machine Interface (HMI) such as in-car payment systems that require high data transmission rate boosting the adoption of automotive ethernet. For instance, in September 2019, Hyundai partnered with Xevo - an automotive software company, to offer in-vehicle commerce. However, interoperability among components and application compatibility can hinder the growth of the market.

With the recent outbreak of COVID 19, the automotive ethernet market is witnessing a decline in growth in the short run due to major automotive manufacturing plants have entirely stopped their production in response to lockdown being enforced by many countries across the world. As of March 2020, major manufacturers in North America and Europe have extended their plant shutdowns. For instance, Toyota, Honda, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, have decided to hold production. This is suggestive of a slowed requirement of ethernet in automotive applications.

Key Market Trends


Increased Demand for Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) to Boost Market Growth

    --  it has been estimated that as the number of vehicles equipped with
        autonomous driving increases in the future, automotive ethernet is
        expected to witness increased opportunities for growth. Autonomous
        driving heavily depends on HD maps with road-based information like lane
        sizes, crosswalks, and road signs. HD maps are built with data collected
        from sensors and ethernet is needed to connect these components in order
        to maintain efficient data transfer and therefore will contribute to the
        growth of automotive ethernet.
    --  The growing adoption of IoT solutions in automotive is providing growth
        opportunities to a wide range of highly connected modern ADAS and
        autonomous driving functions. Having vehicles connected to everything in
        their vicinity or Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) is an essential step
        toward a connected network of autonomous vehicles. Ethernet
        compatibility advantages when connecting vehicles to smart
        infrastructure does make it an important part of the vehicle.
    --  According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle
        Manufacturers (OICA), 92 million vehicles were produced in 2019 across
        the world. With growing volumes of vehicles and the rising demand for
        safety features, designed to avoid collisions and accidents, companies
        are offering technologies that alert the driver about potential
        problems. ADAS is highly adopted by many vehicle manufacturers for
        providing customers with Emergency Brake Assist, Adaptive Cruise
        Control, Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Traffic Sign
        Assist, Intelligent Lights, Intelligent Speed Assist, and Lane/Road
        Departure Alert.
    --  Government regulations revolving around safety and security are also one
        of the major drivers for the growth of automotive ethernet. While many
        of these systems are embedded in current models of cars, some of them
        will become mandatory as they contribute towards road safety. For
        instance, in March 2019, the European Commission announced a new rule to
        make Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) mandatory for all newly
        manufactured light vehicles starting in 2022. Euro NCAP and the US NHTSA
        safety assessment are additional driving forces behind ADAS adoption
        which include the availability and the performance of safety assistant
        systems in their ratings.

Asia-Pacific to Witness Significant Growth

    --  Increased production of passenger vehicles is one of the major factors
        driving the growth of the market in the Asia Pacific Region. India is
        ranked as the world's sixth-largest automotive market; world-class
        automakers, like Mercedes-Benz, Ford, and Volkswagen, are rolling out
        expansion plans in India to maximize manufacturing capacity and output
        to minimize the supply-demand gap in the local market. With these plans,
        the Indian market for time-sensitive in-vehicle networking components
        will increase, and thus the automotive ethernet market is poised for
        strong growth through the 2020s.
    --  The increase in production can be attributed to a reduced cost as well
        as continuous miniaturization of hardware components, which has helped
        this market to increase over the past few years. According to OICA, in
        2019, more than 40 million vehicles were produced within the region. In
        2019, China was the biggest market for passenger car vehicles, with
        around 21.44 million vehicles sold and commercial vehicle sales of
        approximately 4.3 million.
    --  Faster GDP growth and the highly aspirational Asian consumers are the
        two major growth drivers for most of the regions such as China, India,
        Malaysia, and the other developing markets in Southeast Asia in the
        coming years. In terms of consumption of connected and autonomous
        vehicles, North America and Europe remain the prominent regions owing to
        the presence of significant players such as Marvell Technology Group
        Ltd., Broadcom Incorporated among others, high acceptance rate of
        advanced technology and increasing adoption Ethernet in-vehicle networks
        for mainstream models.
    --  However, closure trends in India led the SIAM to estimate that nearly
        over INR 2,300 crore per day as revenue loss for Indian automakers and
        component manufacturers amidst the pandemic. Significant players like
        Maruti Suzuki India, Hyundai, Honda, Mahindra, Toyota Kirloskar Motor,
        Tata Motors, Kia Motors, and MG Motor India have put their plants on
        temporary shutdown. The market is very likely to suffer from potential
        component supply chain disruption, leading to reduced sales and
        production of an automotive ethernet.

Competitive Landscape

The Automotive Ethernet market is fragmented in nature due to high competition. Despite the fragmentation, the market is primarily tied by the regulatory requirements for establishment and operation. Further, with increasing innovation, acquisitions, and partnerships, the rivalry in the market tends to be rising in the future. Recent industry developments:

    --  In March 2020, Argus Cyber Security, a provider of automotive
        cybersecurity, and NXP Semiconductors, a supplier of automotive
        semiconductors, announced in partnership, a new integrated solution that
        allows the carmakers to protect Ethernet network communications based on
        the NXP S32G vehicle processor.
    --  In September 2019, Marvell announced the launch of the family of the
        high-port count, claiming it to be ultra-low latency automotive switches
        with multi-gigabit routing throughput capabilities. This portfolio
        combines the industry's first high-port count aggregation switch,
        offering all ports at gigabit capacity enabling clustering of
        safety-critical sensor data in an Advanced Driver Assistance System
        (ADAS) and data transfer over highspeed PCIe host uplink.
