COVID-19 Scenario Analysis

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the business of almost all industries. While the COVID-19 pandemic crisis evolve, regulatory bodies all over the world are in the compulsion to impose strict lockdown and travel bans. And this has drastically affected the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market share.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the supply chain systems were disrupted and the strict instruction of the Governing bodies to follow social distancing norms forced the industries to work with a minimal workforce which led to the decrease in the production rate of the industries. Thus, all these factors negatively contribute toward the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market. However, after the COVID-19 pandemic, the innovative products and lucrative opportunities for ethernet switches are expected to accelerate the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market.

Top Impacting Factors

In recent years, there has been tremendous growth in demand for the implementation of advanced driver assistance systems and infotainments systems in the vehicles which boost the growth of the automotive ethernet switch in the market. The sharp rise in the per capita income of individuals across the globe is one of the major factors that encourage users to opt for luxury vehicles.  The high-end vehicle sector are the largest user of automotive ethernet switches. Hence, the rise in demand for luxury vehicles will lead the way for the growth in demand for the automotive ethernet switch in the market.

In addition, the use of automotive ethernet technology offers significant advantages such as reduction in the total procurement cost and increase in profit margins of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), which is encouraging a considerable number of OEMs to opt for this technology. Also, the rapid advancement of technology, government policies and growth in the consumer expendable income are some of the major attributes driving the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market.

However, the high cost involved in the implementation of the ethernet switches and their maintenance is the primary restraining that will adversely affect the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market.

The Surge in Demand for Infotainment and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

The adoption of Ethernet in vehicles for infotainment and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) is experiencing growth at a higher rate as they provide higher bandwidth speed and minimum delay while navigation. Also, the advanced and high-quality technologies feature such as gesture control provided by the automotive ethernet switch can enhance the driving experience of the driver. All these attributes contribute positively toward the growth of the automotive ethernet switches market.
