An automotive speaker is a sound device installed in a vehicle that converts electrical impulses into sound waves through the use of a magnet and a relatively large vibrating diaphragm. These speakers play a crucial role in transforming an amplified electrical signal into mechanical energy, causing the speaker cone to move back and forth and produce sound. Automotive speakers are utilized to provide entertainment and information to the passengers in the vehicle.

The main types of automotive speakers are 2-way speakers, 3-way speakers, and 4-way speakers. In the context of automotive speakers, a 2-way speaker features two distinct frequency bands. This includes the woofer, responsible for producing low frequencies, and the tweeter, which generates higher-frequency sounds. 2-way speakers are employed to achieve a balance of bass and cleaner sounds at higher pitches. Various vehicle types, including passenger cars and commercial vehicles, incorporate different types of speakers such as subwoofers, midbass, midrange, and tweeters. These speakers find applications in voice assistance, entertainment, warnings and alerts, guidance and navigation, automatic pedestrian alert systems, and more. Sales channels for automotive speakers include original equipment manufacturers and the aftermarket.
