Automotive Semiconductor Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Shift Towards Using Electric and Hybrid Vehicles to Cut Pollutants to Favor Market

Electric and hybrid vehicles, as well as solar-powered automobiles, are the principal alternatives to petroleum-based engines. Using electric and hybrid vehicles can reduce fuel costs, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance urban air quality, and lessen reliance on fossil fuels. The introduction of electric vehicles will increase demand for new automotive ICs, microprocessors, and sensors.

Growing Environmental Concerns Are Driving the Development of Electric Automobiles

Environmental concerns and the need to preserve energy have fueled the development of HEVs and EVs. Hybrid vehicles are equipped with an engine, a motor, and a high-voltage, high-power battery to operate the motor. Hybrid vehicles meet high power needs while still providing environmental benefits. Global emission standards have led to developments in car technology to reduce dangerous exhaust emissions. The introduction of electric vehicles (EVs) is a significant step towards environmental sustainability in the automobile sector. These vehicles use no conventional gasoline and thus emit no hazardous gasses. Electric car sales have increased significantly in industrialized nations such as North America and Europe due to various factors. Because these vehicles are entirely powered by electricity, they make extensive use of technological gadgets.
