In-car audio system comprises the electronic devices installed in cars or other vehicles, which provide in-car entertainment and information for vehicle occupants. Common car audio components include stereos, speakers, subwoofers, amplifiers, and auxiliary inputs, such as USB ports and headphone jacks. There are many different types and models of car audio systems available from various manufacturers, ranging from basic budget units to high-end audiophile systems with advanced features such as voice control, digital signal processing, and Bluetooth connectivity. The power output, connectivity choices, sound quality, and general electrical system compatibility should all be considered when choosing a car audio system.
The German new car market increased by 1.1% in the full year 2022 to 2,651,357 passenger cars, the second lowest number of new passenger vehicle registrations in a calendar year in Germany in decades. Sales of light commercial vehicles, trucks, buses, and motorcycles sales were weaker. Only 17.8% of all new cars in Germany were diesel-powered, but sales of electric vehicles increased by a third to a record 17.7% share of the market. At 3,240,478 cars, the overall number of new motorized vehicle registrations in Germany increased by 0.2% in 2022, a little over 7,000 more than in 2021 but almost a million less than in 2019.
In 2022, Germany's car output increased by 11% to 3.4 million vehicles. The number of automobiles produced in 2021 - 3.1 million - was the lowest since 1975. The fundamental constraint on global auto manufacturing, as in Germany, was supply constraints rather than demand. The VDA estimates that German auto exports climbed by a comparable 10% in 2022, reaching 2.6 million vehicles exported. The German car market is not able to match its pre COVID sales, but the market is making progress as the year over year sales are improving and creating demand for cars and components related to the market.
Owing to strong sales of electric vehicles and large fleets, new automobile registrations in the UK increased for the sixth consecutive month in January 2023 rising by 14.7% annually. Full-year sales are anticipated to surpass 2021, an industry association predicted on Monday. According to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), 131,994 vehicles were registered in the UK during February 2023, making this the industry's best start to a year since January 2020. In addition, it is predicted that registrations would reach 1.96 million units by 2024 and that sales would increase by more than 11% to 1.79 million. However, compared to a 16.6% annual share in 2022, battery electric cars (BEVs) only represented 13.1% of new registrations in January. To 17,294 vehicles, BEV registrations increased by 19.8%. Developments like these are expected to escalate the demand for in-car audio systems and components.
In February 2023, passenger automobile sales in Italy increased. According to the Italian Automobile Manufacturers Association (ANFIA), there were 130,365 new passenger cars registered in February, a 17.5% increase over the same month in 2022. With 258,689 cars registered in the first two months of 2023, year-to-date sales had grown 18.2%. In February 2023, registrations for the Fiat brand fell by 4.7% year over year (11.7% market share), while those for the VW brand rose by 56.6% (8.7% share), Toyota registrations rose by 46.5% (6.6% share), and Dacia registrations rose by 51.6% (6.0% market share).
The foreign car distributor association (UNRAE) reported that sales of gasoline-powered passenger cars rose 16.5% year over year to 34,591 units (26.1% share) in February 2023, while sales of diesel cars rose 1.5% to 25,363 units (19.2%), hybrid car sales rose 25.3% to 48,312 units (36.5% share), combined sales of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles (PHEV and REx) rose 2.2% to 5,615 units (4.2% share), and sales of electric. The sales in the automotive Italian market are on rise, which is expected to boost the demand for in-car audio system.
The OEM car audio systems market is constantly evolving, as OEM car audio systems are increasingly being designed to integrate with other vehicle systems, such as infotainment systems, driver assistance features, and navigation systems. This allows a more seamless and intuitive user experience. Furthermore, OEM car audio systems are incorporating more advanced digital signal processing to enhance audio quality and provide more precise control over the sound. Other OEM car audio systems are now incorporating voice control features, allowing drivers to control the audio system without their hands off the wheels. Thus, all these factors collectively contribute toward the growth of the overall market.
The aftermarket car audio system is designed to work seamlessly with smartphones and other mobile devices, allowing for easy connectivity and access to music, podcasts, and other audio content. Aftermarket car audio systems incorporate more advanced digital signal processing methods to improve audio quality, similar to that of OEM car audio systems. Voice control capabilities are now being included into certain aftermarket automobile audio systems, enabling users to operate the stereo system with their voice. Some aftermarket automobile audio systems are made considering sustainability, thus employing more eco-friendly materials and components, as some buyers are more ecologically conscious. The aftermarket car audio system market is growing and presents significant opportunities for businesses that can meet the evolving needs of consumers.
The in car audio system market is segmented on the basis of component, make, vehicle type, sales channel, and region.
