Global Automotive Operating System Market by Operating System Type (Android, Linux/Unix, QNX), Vehicle Type (Commercial Vehicles, Passenger Cars), Application - Forecast 2024-2030

The Automotive Operating System Market size was estimated at USD 14.03 billion in 2023, USD 15.28 billion in 2024, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.40% to reach USD 26.31 billion by 2030.

Automotive operating systems are computer systems found in modern automobiles that provide the digital infrastructure required to control, manage and monitor vehicle components, systems, and subsystems. These systems are designed to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle while providing an intuitive user experience for drivers. Increasing production of automotive vehicles and the need for improved safety systems are expanding the need for enhanced versions of operating systems. The high adoption of electronic engine control units (ECU) in vehicles has accelerated the need for certain types of operating systems. However, the high cost of vehicle operating systems and the limited availability of standards to develop software platforms for vehicles impede product penetration. Market players are working on the provision of high-quality robot operating systems with new standards for system uniformity to sustain in the market. With the rising production of software-defined vehicles, the manufacturing of new automated operating systems is expected to increase.
