The vehicle networking market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.85 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise of autonomous driving technologies, expansion of electric vehicle production, growing demand for connected vehicles, increasing data bandwidth requirements, adoption of centralized vehicle architectures. Major trends in the forecast period include advanced in-vehicle communication protocols, integration of ethernet in vehicle networks, standardization of automotive networking architectures, high-speed data transmission for infotainment, enhanced reliability for safety-critical systems.
The growing demand for autonomous vehicles is anticipated to drive the expansion of the vehicle networking market in the coming years. Autonomous vehicles, also referred to as self-driving cars, are capable of navigating and operating without human intervention. Their rising adoption in the vehicle networking market is attributed to their potential to enhance driver and passenger safety, efficiency, and convenience. For example, in December 2024, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a U.S.-based government agency, reported that by 2030, approximately 4.5 million self-driving vehicles are expected to be on U.S. roads. Consequently, the increasing demand for autonomous vehicles is fueling the growth of the vehicle networking market.
Major companies in the vehicle networking market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as multi-gigabit in-vehicle networking chipsets, to support next-generation intelligent vehicle architectures and enable high-speed, reliable data transmission for critical automotive applications. These chipsets combine advanced PHY technologies and switching capabilities to simplify vehicle system design, lower power consumption, and enhance data management within increasingly complex automotive networks. For instance, in May 2024, Aeonsemi, a U.S.-based semiconductor company, launched the Nemo platform, an IEEE-802.3ch-compliant multi-gigabit in-vehicle networking chipset. The platform features the world’s first automotive switch with integrated 10GBASE-T1 PHYs and the industry’s lowest-power 10GBASE-T1 PHYs for both symmetric and asymmetric applications. Designed to optimize both software and hardware for the “datacenter on wheels,” the Nemo™ platform supports next-generation intelligent vehicle architectures and high-speed data communication for safety-critical and data-intensive automotive use cases.
