Automotive electronics has constantly been one of the most significant components of the automobile industry. The industry has been facing a massive transition from conventional fuel vehicles to electric and automated vehicles. The companies are diligently developing high-tech and advanced electronics components to achieve enhanced safety, impeccable entertainment, and vehicle comfort features.

Modern vehicles are equipped with various electronic components such as ignition, engine management, headlights, radio power systems, telematics, emergency systems, and sophisticated sensors, which rely on the automobile's electronic system. With increasing maturity, the automotive industry is increasingly adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) and integrating them with its products to attain enhanced autonomy, safety & security, and world-class infotainment.

The automotive electronics products market demand is continuously inching upward owing to factors such as vehicle safety demand, IoT and AI adoption, growing need for automated vehicles, and rapid investment in the green and EV segment. The government's incentives and stricter environmental norms continuously push consumers to migrate from traditional IC engine cars to EVs, resulting in greater adoption of automation. 

The growing awareness of environmental concerns is a driving factor making consumers shift toward electric and hybrid vehicles. As the overall automobile industry is moving more toward electrification and automation, the use of advanced sensors increases to make the ride safer, more efficient, and sustainable at the same time. Hence, manufacturers are constantly motivated to develop and integrate advanced technology systems to cater to consumers' rising needs.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Automotive Electronics Products Market

The worldwide shutdown impacted various industries negatively, leading to revenue decline, loss of product sales, slowed production rate, unemployment, and many other severe impacts. As COVID-19 hit the world in early 2020, all the major economies had multiple setbacks due to lockdowns and supply chain bottlenecks. FY20 experienced negative growth as consumer attitudes and preferences changed significantly.

Although demand started picking up in FY-21, the shortage of semiconductor chips, an essential part of car manufacturing, controlling air conditioning systems, operating infotainment systems, and ensuring proper working of multiple sensors involved, severely affected the automotive industry, resulting in lower car production. Stricter social distancing norms forced companies to work at half capacity, significantly affecting the economy. Another issue was regarding the procurement of raw materials. The crunching supply chain route led to the scarcity of raw materials, leading to insufficient production and elevated cost of goods and services. These factors have severely affected automotive electronics during the COVID-19 pandemic.
