Increasing demand for in-car entertainment
The growing demand for in-car entertainment is offering a favorable India car audio market outlook. People spend more time in their cars due to traffic and long commutes, making a good audio system essential for an enjoyable ride. People want features like Bluetooth connectivity, touchscreen controls, voice assistants, and premium sound quality to enhance their driving experience. Streaming services, podcasts, and smartphone integration further drive this demand. Additionally, younger buyers, who prioritize entertainment and connectivity, are willing to invest in high-end audio systems. This trend is not just limited to luxury cars. Mid-range and budget vehicles also come with advanced infotainment options. To meet these expectations, automakers are partnering with top audio brands to offer factory-fitted premium sound systems. In August 2024, Pioneer, the manufacturer of car audio and entertainment systems from Japan, intended to enhance its footprint in the Indian automotive sector by prioritizing collaborations with local vehicle manufacturers. The firm was recognized for the supply of automotive products, such as infotainment systems and speakers.
Innovations in technology
Technological advancements are impelling the India car audio market growth. People expect smart and high-quality audio systems that offer more than just basic music playback. Modern infotainment systems come with touchscreen displays, artificial intelligence (AI)-oriented voice assistants, and seamless smartphone integration, making in-car entertainment more convenient. Modern features allow drivers to access calls, navigation, and streaming services hands-free, enhancing both safety and comfort. Advanced sound technologies, such as digital signal processing (DSP), noise cancellation, and surround sound, create an immersive listening experience. Automakers are also introducing gesture controls and personalized audio settings that adapt to user preferences. With the rise of EVs, there is a greater demand for energy-efficient and powerful audio components. Moreover, as competition in the market increases, companies are investing heavily in research and engineering labs to develop next-generation audio solutions tailored for Indian roads and driving conditions. In August 2024, Harman, a prominent player in automotive electronics, launched the ‘Automotive Acoustics Experience Lab’ in Pune, India. This center was designed to transform car audio, acoustics, engineering, and research, guaranteeing that items fulfill customer demands. It encompassed around 50 engineers and research teams in India to assess, create, and verify car audio systems with unmatched accuracy.
