The industry is experiencing strong momentum driven by rising demand for sophisticated automotive electronics, increasing production of electric vehicles, and the rapid emergence of connected mobility systems. These components are becoming essential in advanced driver-assistance features, in-vehicle entertainment platforms, and evolving autonomous functions. Growing reliance on intelligent sensors and high-speed data processing fuels the need for memory capable of supporting real-time workloads in next-generation vehicles. As automation scales, vehicles require memory architectures that deliver higher capacity, reduced latency, and long-term durability. This shift encourages manufacturers to develop automotive-grade components built to meet rigorous safety and reliability criteria. The accelerating transition toward EVs and hybrid models is also creating significant opportunities, as electrified vehicles depend on complex electronic control units and battery management systems that rely on high-performance memory for continuous monitoring of safety, efficiency, and system behavior.
The volatile memory segment accounted for 41.6% share in 2025. Its prominence stems from its central function in handling real-time operations and short-term data loads within modern vehicles. DRAM, the primary volatile memory, enables rapid interaction between vehicle sensors, infotainment controllers, energy-management units, and other mission-critical modules. Its speed, responsiveness, and optimized power usage make it fundamental to intelligent, connected vehicle platforms.
The runtime or working memory segment reached USD 7.3 billion in 2025. This segment dominates because it performs the most demanding processing tasks tied to immediate data communication across electronic control units, connectivity systems, battery oversight modules, and advanced safety technologies. DRAM continues to serve as the backbone of runtime memory due to its high performance and stability. Expanding use of EVs, automated driving systems, and integrated connectivity features continues to support strong demand in this category.
