Automotive 48V System Market

Market Overview:

The global automotive 48V system market size reached US$ 7.1 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 38.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 19.95% during 2024-2032. The escalating demand for hybrid and electric vehicles (EVs), along with luxury and advanced safety features and stringent government regulations to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, represent some of the key factors driving the market.

The automotive 48V system is an advanced technology that integrates a 48-volt battery with an internal combustion (IC) engine and a regular 12-volt battery in multiple configurations. It includes various components, such as a belt alternator starter, direct current (DC)-to-DC converter, high voltage battery, inverter, power distribution box, electric motor, and charger. The automotive 48V system is widely used to provide start-stop function, torque boost, regenerative braking, and power to the electric drive, compressors, and power steering. It aids in optimizing performance, reducing weight, and improving the harness packaging in the vehicle. The automotive 48V system helps to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, improve fuel efficiency, and enable dynamic handling and performance.

Automotive 48V System Market Trends:

The escalating demand for electric and hybrid vehicles is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. An automotive 48V system is widely used in electric vehicles (EVs) to power various electrical components, such as lighting systems, electrical heaters, air conditioning compressors, pumps, and steering drives. In addition to this, the widespread product adoption to provide mild-hybrid functionality to vehicles by powering auxiliary systems, which, in turn, improves the thermal performance of the engine, reduces emissions, enhances fuel efficiency, and saves cost, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, rising product application to power luxury and advanced safety features in vehicles, such as heated seats, windows demister, infotainment systems, reverse cameras, blind-spot monitoring, road condition sensors, motion detectors, and adaptive cruise control, is providing an impetus to the market growth. Additionally, the widespread product utilization for the development of autonomous vehicles to power energy-intensive components, such as computers, cameras, and various sensors, is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, the implementation of various government initiatives to promote the adoption of EVs and subsequently reduce greenhouse gas emissions is favoring the market growth. Other factors, including rising expenditure capacities of consumers, increasing environmental concerns, significant investment in research and development (R&D) activities, the escalating demand for fuel-efficient vehicles, and increasing awareness among consumers regarding various product benefits, such as lower cost, higher performance, and improved vehicle speed, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
