"Zonal Controller Architecture is likely to be the leading segment in the Software Defined Vehicle market by E/E Architecture during the forecast period."
SDVs come with an array of electronic features developed for improved driving comfort, vehicle safety, and fault detection. SDV providers such as Tesla (US), NIO (China), XPENG (China), ZEEKR (China), and Li Auto Inc. (China) have adopted a software-first approach in which they start with zonal control units to utilize the advanced and integrated software features of SDVs. Legacy OEMs also plan to shift to zonal compute systems with their SDV shift. Volkswagen plans to integrate XPENG's CES architecture in its vehicles, starting from 2026, which will be equipped with zonal control central computing. Other OEMs such as Hyundai, Mercedes, and BMW also plan to shift to zonal control architecture by 2026-2028, incorporated in their latest vehicle platforms. Zonal controllers allow OEMs to control the whole vehicle through 4-10 HPCs per vehicle and reduce the need for excessive wiring in the vehicles. Thus, the transition to zonal control is seen as a significant step towards fully realizing the potential of SDVs, offering a more streamlined, adaptable, and efficient vehicle architecture.
"Europe shows high growth potential for Software Defined Vehicle market."
Europe presents a huge growth opportunity for the Software Defined Vehicle market, which is characterized by stringent safety requirements and a need for better user experience. It is home to leading OEMs such as Volkswagen, BMW, Renault, Stellantis, and Mercedes-Benz, which are transitioning toward SDVs. In Europe, OEMs are expanding in the region through strategic partnerships and acquisitions. For instance, in February 2023, CARIAD GmbH acquired Hexad GmbH's Mobility Services Platform unit which enhanced its cloud service capabilities for Volkswagen Group's digital automotive ecosystem. This acquisition integrated over 75 Hexad developers into CARIAD which strengthened its software development for improved digital services across Group brands. Also, in March 2024, Volkswagen Group plans to utilize its 23 regional plants to support the development and production of SDVs in Europe.
The Software Defined Vehicle market comprises major manufacturers such as Tesla (US), Li Auto Inc. (China), NIO (China), Rivian (US), XPENG Inc. (China), and ZEEKR (China), etc.
