The automotive radar market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.26 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to surge in demand for radar sensors in electric and autonomous vehicles, integration of 5g technology for faster and more reliable communication, increasing adoption of radar for pedestrian detection and urban driving, growth in the connected car ecosystem, expansion of the commercial vehicle market with radar-based safety systems. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements in radar sensors for improved accuracy, development of radar sensors with higher resolution and improved range, integration of radar with other sensor technologies for comprehensive sensing, emphasis on cybersecurity measures for secure radar communication, collaboration between automakers and technology providers.

The increasing number of road accidents is expected to drive the growth of the automotive radar market in the future. Road accidents, which result from traffic collisions, negligence, or other factors causing injury or death, are a significant concern. Automotive radar, a key sensor system for collision avoidance and detecting pedestrians and cyclists, complements vision-based cameras, helping to reduce accidents. For example, in April 2024, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a U.S.-based government agency, reported that distracted driving caused 3,308 fatalities and around 289,310 injuries in the U.S. in 2022. Additionally, 621 vulnerable road users, including pedestrians and cyclists, were killed in crashes involving distracted drivers. Thus, the increase in road accidents is boosting the automotive radar market's growth.

The surge in urbanization and subsequent congestion is anticipated to drive the expansion of the automotive radar market. Urbanization, marked by the growth and densification of cities, triggers traffic issues due to increased population and economic activity in urban areas. Automotive radar facilitates adaptive cruise control systems, enabling vehicles to autonomously adjust speeds, maintaining safe distances, thereby alleviating the stress of stop-and-go traffic. Notably, data from INRIX in January 2023 revealed that the typical U. S. driver lost 51 hours to congestion in 2022, equating to about an hour each week. This marked a significant increase of 15 hours lost compared to 2021, costing the average American driver approximately $869 in lost time. Thus, the surge in urbanization and associated traffic congestion are major drivers propelling the growth of the automotive radar market.

The automotive radar market is witnessing a surge in technological innovations, emerging as a pivotal trend. Leading companies in this sector are introducing cutting-edge technologies to bolster their market presence. For instance, in March 2022, Under, a reputable U. S. -based manufacturer specializing in digital automotive radar-on-chip for automated systems, unveiled an industry-first product called the 4G digital imaging radar-on-chip. This groundbreaking technology delivers enhanced accuracy and heightened sensing capabilities for both stationary and moving objects across short and long distances. These advanced driver assistance systems ensure precision regardless of weather or lighting conditions, effectively mitigating interference with other radar systems, thereby signaling a significant technological leap within the automotive radar market.

Leading companies in the automotive radar market are prioritizing partnerships and collaborations to achieve shared objectives by pooling their resources, expertise, and capabilities, particularly in the development of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles. For example, in September 2023, Mobileye, an Israel-based autonomous driving company, partnered with Valeo, a France-based automotive manufacturer. Through this partnership, Mobileye and Valeo aim to provide top-tier, software-defined imaging radars for next-generation ADAS and automated driving features. By working together, they can accelerate the global rollout of this innovative technology to automakers, advancing the creation of smarter vehicles. Imaging radar will play a vital role in the sensing systems used for automated driving, acting as a key element for advanced hands-off ADAS solutions and eyes-off autonomous driving on highways and in urban areas.

In September 2022, Harman, a US-based electronics company, acquired Caaresys for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enhances Harman's capabilities with CAARESYS' contactless sensing technology, which facilitates precise monitoring of heart and respiratory rates, passenger localization, and child presence detection (CPD) within the cabin. As a result, Harman is positioned as a leader in the expanding in-cabin safety and well-being market. Caaresys is an Israel-based firm specializing in in-cabin radar sensing solutions.

Automotive radar encompasses several sensor systems that include both transmitters and receivers, facilitating the transfer of data to camera-sensing systems. These radars operate on frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar technology, allowing them to detect the speed and range of objects in the vicinity of a vehicle.

In the realm of automotive radar, the main categories of vehicles are passenger cars and commercial vehicles. In the passenger car market, automotive radar is integrated into car cabins to track passengers and objects within the vehicle. Automotive radars play a crucial role in enabling essential safety and comfort features in passenger cars. Different ranges of automotive radar include long-range radar (LRR) and short and medium-range radar (S&MRR), available at frequencies such as 24 GHz, 77 GHz, and 79 GHz. Various applications of automotive radar systems include adaptive cruise control (ACC), autonomous emergency braking (AEB), blind-spot detection (BSD), forward-collision warning systems, intelligent park assist, and others.
