Europe Market Insights on Automotive Radar: Insights and Forecast, 2019-2025

Report Description

Europe automotive radar market was valued at US$ 984.83 Million in 2018 and is anticipated to reach US$ XX Million by 2025 displaying explosive CAGR of XX% over the forecast period (2019-2025). Europe is recognized as the birthplace of motor cars. Car production in the European region is not a new concept, with the automotive industry being one of the oldest sources of exports and employment. The strong foothold in the market is mainly attributed to the presence of considerable number of automotive OEM’s in the region, which is escalating the overall demand for automotive related technologies, including automotive radar system in the European countries. The region has witnessed high demands for premium car compared to other segment vehicles, which is increasing the demand and adoption of ADAS and radar system in the region.

Moreover, mandate legislation imposed by the European commission and rating awarded by Euro New Car Assessment Programme (NCAP) is further considered to be influencing the growth of the market. In addition, especially for radar, European Commission has mandated a “permanent” band at 79 GHz and is required to be made available in all EU member states, which is regarded as the foundation for the future development of the automotive radar market. However, factors such as high vehicle manufacturing cost and ban on use of radar detectors in some of the European countries are hampering the market.
