Electronics to Constitute Over Half of Car Cost by 2030, Offering Localization Opportunity
A BCG-ACMA report projects that electronics will constitute 50-55% of a car's cost by 2030, up from 30-35% in 2020. This shift, driven by features like advanced driver assistance systems, infotainment, sensors, and connectivity, offers significant localization and growth opportunities for Indian auto component makers. Currently, India's electrical and electronics segment accounts for about 12% of component supply, indicating substantial scope for domestic suppliers to develop expertise in sensors, electronic control units, power electronics, and battery management systems.
