The Automotive Lidar Companies Quadrant is a comprehensive industry analysis that provides valuable insights into the global market for Automotive Lidar. This quadrant offers a detailed evaluation of key market players, technological advancements, product innovations, and emerging trends shaping the industry. The publisher's 360 Quadrants evaluated over 100 companies, of which the Top 13 Automotive Lidar Companies were categorized and recognized as quadrant leaders.

The automotive LiDAR market is experiencing notable progress, particularly with the emergence of advanced technologies such as 4D LiDAR. In January 2024, Aeva Inc. (US) introduced its Atlas 4D FMCW LiDAR, marking a significant milestone in the field, and named Daimler Trucks AG (Germany) as its first customer. Likewise, in December 2024, Aeva expanded its partnership with SICK AG (Germany) to incorporate its FMCW technology into SICK’s high-performance sensors, highlighting the increasing adoption of sophisticated LiDAR technologies across diverse applications.

An increasing number of vehicle models are being equipped with state-of-the-art LiDAR systems, underlining the industry’s focus on advancing autonomous driving features. For instance, Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Germany) includes Level 3 DRIVE PILOT systems featuring SCALA LiDAR from Valeo in its EQS and S-Class sedans - demonstrating how leading automakers are embracing LiDAR to fulfill the rising demand for greater driving autonomy. This trend is projected to persist. For example, the 2025 BYD Han EV is anticipated to incorporate LiDAR from RoboSense (China), and both the BMW 7 Series and i7 are expected to feature a single LiDAR sensor from Innoviz Technologies Ltd. (Israel).

The 360 Quadrant maps the Automotive Lidar companies based on criteria such as revenue, geographic presence, growth strategies, investments, and sales strategies for the market presence of the Automotive Lidar quadrant. The top criteria for product footprint evaluation included By ICE VEHICLE TYPE (Passenger Car, Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV), Heavy Commercial Vehicle (HCV), Insights from Industry Experts), By ELECTRIC VEHICLE TYPE (Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), Insights from Industry Experts), By IMAGE TYPE (2D, 3D, Insights from Industry Experts), By LASER WAVELENGTH (Near-infrared, Short-wave Infrared, Long-wave Infrared, Insights from Industry Experts), By LEVEL OF AUTONOMY (Semi-autonomous, Autonomous, Insights from Industry Experts), By LOCATION (Bumper & Grille, Headlight & Taillight, Roof & Upper Pillar, Other Locations, Insights from Industry Experts), By MEASUREMENT PROCESS (Time of Flight (TOF), Frequency-measurement Continuous Wave (FMCW), Insights from Industry Experts), By TECHNOLOGY (Mechanical Lidar, Solid-state Lidar, Insights from Industry Experts), and By RANGE (Short- & Mid-range (170 Meters and Below), Long-range (Above 170 Meters), Insights from Industry Experts).
