SBW Industry Faces Transformation and Decline Amid EV Proliferation and Evolving E/E Architecture
This comprehensive study examines the global shift-by-wire (SBW) market from 2022 to 2030, providing insights into growth prospects and their associated implications. SBW technology seeks to replace the traditional mechanical linkages between the transmission and gear shifter with electronics. The report explores the SBW technology penetration across different global regions, examining a wide array of factors and emerging market trends. The study provides an overview of SBW for global premium and mass-market OEMs, vehicle segment-wise analysis, and evaluates the average price of SBW modules (actuator, motors, sensors, and gear shifter) per vehicle. It identifies opportunities for stakeholders, comprising OEMs, Tier 1, and Tier 2 suppliers, to harness the ongoing vertical market consolidation fueled by the evolving technological landscape, including the emergence of new E/E architecture for software-defined vehicles and the rapid pace of electrification.
These changes are poised to influence demand for various hardware and software components in the SBW market. The global SBW is forecast to reach $5.53 billion by 2030. In terms of revenue generation, North America is projected to take the lead by 2030, followed by China and the Asia-Pacific. The Middle East/Africa region is also anticipated to register robust growth rates over the forecast period, closely followed by South America. This study outlines growth drivers and restraints set to impact regional and global market dynamics. Ultimately, this study presents stakeholders with invaluable insights to help capture new opportunities and develop strategies that align with distinctive market trends, regional nuances, and various automotive advancements influencing the SBW market.
