Global demand for autonomous vehicles is expected to reach 6.7 million units by 2020. It is projected to grow at a CAGR (63.1%) between 2021 and 2030. Autonomous vehicles (AV), also called self-driving cars, are a major innovation in the automotive sector. They are a key innovation in the automotive industry and have a high growth potential.
Supportive regulations, government funding, as well as investment in digital infrastructure, are expected to have a positive impact on the self-driving vehicle market growth. There are many products and systems in the market that form the autonomous vehicle infrastructure.
Non-drivers and people with disabilities can use autonomous vehicles to enable mobility on their own. These vehicles allow travelers to travel more comfortably and with greater flexibility, including the ability to read, rest or work while they travel, increasing their efficiency. They also lower the cost of driving taxis and commercial vehicles. These vehicles will be adopted in large part due to their safety and crash risk reductions.
An autonomous vehicle is composed of multiple sensors such as LiDAR or RADAR systems that work simultaneously to perform operations without the assistance of drivers. These sensors aid in navigation by performing motion planning, situational analysis, and trajectory control. Increasing safety concerns and advances in automotive technology have resulted in autonomous vehicles being accepted by governments across the globe, including the U.S. and Japan. These factors will fuel the market growth for self-driving cars over the forecast period.
Numerous government agencies are taking different initiatives to introduce autonomous vehicles to their countries. In February 2018, for example, the European Union (EU) announced, along with ENSEMBLE consortium, and TNO, Netherlands organization for applied science research, the implementation of multi-brand truck platooning in Europe. Multi-brand truck platooning allows a single truck to join a convoy of other trucks. These initiatives will increase fuel economy, improve traffic capacity, and decrease CO2 omissions in the EU.
The market for autonomous vehicles is divided into two segments based on their application: transportation and defense. The transportation market is further divided into commercial and industrial applications. Due to the increasing number of initiatives in different regions such as North America, the defense sector will be the largest over the forecast period. In April 2019, for example, the U.S. Army announced the deployment of autonomous combat vehicles to aid soldiers in avoiding accidents caused by driving.
Due to increasing adoption of autonomous vehicles in transport, the transportation sector is expected to see significant growth over the next few years. Baidu, an Internet-related company, announced in December 2019 that it had obtained 40 licenses to allow the company to test driverless vehicles. The forecast period sees the industrial segment growing at a high rate of CAGR. This is due in part to technological advancements and increasing acceptance of autonomous cars by different governments around the world.
The growth of mobility as a service is expected to give rise to the autonomous car market. North America will see significant growth due to changes in U.S. traffic regulations to allow autonomous vehicles to be placed on public roads. To make transportation completely autonomous, the regulation is gradually being adopted in all U.S. states. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which is a U.S. traffic regulator, permitted self-driving car testing in many states including Nevada, California and Florida.
Europe will be a potential lucrative market for self-driving cars in the future, due to growing adoption of autonomous cars and increased consumer preference for technologically advanced goods. The U.K. Department of Transport established a jurisdiction in 2018 to allow autonomous vehicles to be operated on public roads without the need for additional insurance or permits. In 2018, the country also created the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles. The U.K. government has committed to autonomous vehicles being on the roads by 2021 and plans to make necessary changes to regulations to support development of these vehicles.
Audi AG, BMW AG, Daimler AG, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Company, Google LLC, Honda Motor Co., Ltd., Nissan Motor Company, Tesla, Toyota Motor Corporation, Uber Technologies, Inc., Volvo Car Corporation, and Volkswagen AG are some of the major players in this market.
To stay ahead of their competition, the market leaders in self-driving vehicles are involved in collaborative efforts and the development innovative solutions. In August 2017, BMW AG and Intel Corporation, Mobileye (a subsidiary of Intel Corporation) signed a memorandum to allow FCA to join them in developing an autonomous vehicle driving platform. This memorandum aims to combine the strengths, resources, and capabilities of all three companies in order to speed up the time to market, improve development efficiency, and improve the technology. These initiatives will likely significantly contribute to market growth.
