Market Dynamic

Key Drivers and Emerging Trends

Growing production of automotive, development of autonomous vehicles and connected cars, and increasing application of temperature sensors in vehicles for several automotive systems including engine, powertrain management system, engine cooling system, and the HVAC system are the significant factors that are expected to drive the growth of the automotive temperature sensor market. Additionally, rising concern for environmental protection, stringent government regulations related to gas emission control, fuel economy, and accelerating adoption of green vehicles are anticipated to propel the automotive sensors market size.

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles together with the growing application of temperature sensors in numerous applications including the electric motor, on-board charger, battery management system, and charging cable in electric cars is projected to provide lucrative growth opportunities to the market. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2019, electric cars registered 2.1 million sales globally with a 40% year-on-year increase and accounted for 2.6% of the global car sales. This is expected to drive the growth of the electric vehicle industry, thereby contributing to the growth of the automotive temperature sensors market.

Restraint in the Automotive Temperature Sensor Market

However, an increase in the overall manufacturing cost of vehicles is expected to be one of the major restraining factors in the growth of the automotive temperature sensor market in the coming years. Additionally, disruption in the supply chains of automotive OEMs production due to the outbreak of COVID-19 is further expected to hamper the automotive temperature sensor market growth in the coming years.
