Automotive Biometrics Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The global automotive biometrics market reached a value of D 420.55 Million in 2024. The industry is further expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 16.10% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach a value of around USD 1.87 billion by 2034.

North America and Europe to be Significant Regional Markets for Automotive Biometrics

North America is anticipated to be one of the dominant regions in the global automotive biometrics system industry. This is due to the increasing disposable income of the consumers in the region and consumers' desire to adapt to technologically advanced things, which is projected to drive the demand for automotive biometrics. For example, in November 2019, Nuance Communications, a leading biometrics provider for the automotive industry in the United States, announced that it would spin off its automotive biometrics division, forming Cerence Inc., a separate public company focused solely on the automotive biometrics industry. The firm indicated this approach to acquire a first-mover advantage in creating biometrics for the automobile sector. The automotive industry is a freshly emerging market for biometrics applications in this region. The corporations are positioning and segmenting their biometric offerings for the market strategically.

Europe is likely to have a significant share in the global market for automotive biometrics. The market in Europe is primarily driven by increased concerns about vehicle safety and security and automotive biometrics firms in the region that are progressively partnering and expanding their operations to expand their regional presence. To accelerate the European automotive biometrics industry's competitiveness and preserve its technological infrastructure, the government and automotive companies of Europe support technical harmonisation and provide funding for research and development. Thus, the market demand for automotive biometrics is anticipated to grow.

Due to the increasing demand for vehicles in China, Japan, India, and South Korea, Asia Pacific is also expected to witness higher growth percentages. Automotive biometric systems are used to identify and verify automobiles for improving vehicle safety and comfort. The automotive biometric market is growing in line with rising vehicle sales.
