The growing demand for electric vehicles is playing a significant role in the expansion of the body control module market. An electric vehicle (EV) is defined as a vehicle equipped with an electric motor that draws power from a battery and has the capability to be charged externally. The body control module in electric vehicles is responsible for managing energy to optimize the vehicle’s travel distance before a battery recharge is necessary. For example, in February 2024, the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications, and the Arts, an Australian government department tasked with implementing government policies and programs, reported that as of January 31, 2022, there were 20.7 million registered motor vehicles, representing a 2% increase from January 2021. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) accounted for around 40,000 of these, indicating a 100% rise compared to 2021, with 34,200 being passenger cars in 2022, an increase of 118% from 2021. Hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) totaled approximately 277,000 in 2022, reflecting a 35% growth from the previous year. Thus, the increasing demand for electric vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the body control module market.

The increasing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology emerges as a significant force propelling the growth of the body control module market. IoT refers to an interconnected network encompassing physical devices, vehicles, buildings, and other objects embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity, facilitating data exchange and collection. Integration of IoT technology within body control modules (BCMs) in the automotive sector offers heightened connectivity, remote monitoring capabilities, over-the-air (OTA) updates, predictive maintenance features, enhanced security measures, and enables customization and personalization of vehicle settings. As projected by Exploding Topics in March 2023, an estimated 25.4 billion IoT devices are anticipated to be operational by 2030. Consequently, the increasing adoption of IoT technology plays a pivotal role in driving the growth trajectory of the body control module market.

The prevailing trend in the body control module market revolves around product innovation, with major companies directing their efforts towards developing advanced modules that offer increased intelligence and compatibility with newer vehicle models. For instance, in April 2023, BYD, a prominent Chinese automotive manufacturer, introduced the BYD DiSus intelligent body control system specifically designed for new energy vehicles (NEVs). This self-developed complete stack system represents a pioneering endeavor for BYD, positioning the company as the first Chinese automobile manufacturer to possess comprehensive intelligent vehicle body control technologies. The BYD DiSus system significantly enhances the driving experience for consumers and comprises three distinct branches such as the intelligent damping body control system (DiSus-C), the intelligent air body control system (DiSus-A), and the intelligent hydraulic body control system (DiSus-P).

Leading companies in the body control module market are concentrating on advanced products like the ADAS (advanced driver-assistance system) platform to boost revenues in the sector. The ADAS platform leverages Aptiv's comprehensive industry-leading capabilities in software, computational platforms, and perception systems. For example, in May 2022, STMicroelectronics, a Switzerland-based semiconductor contract manufacturing and design firm, launched the ASM330LHHX automotive inertial measurement unit (IMU) to advance smart driving technologies by integrating embedded machine learning within a compact and efficient sensor. This sensor enhances smart driving by facilitating real-time data processing for applications such as vehicle positioning, crash detection, and digital stabilization. With dual operating modes for low power and high performance, the ASM330LHHX is designed for always-on applications like telematics, ensuring functionality while reducing energy consumption.

In May 2023, Infineon Technologies AG, a prominent semiconductor manufacturer headquartered in Germany, completed the acquisition of Imagimob AB for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition empowers Infineon to fortify its standing as a leading provider of cutting-edge machine learning (ML) solutions, significantly amplifying its capabilities in artificial intelligence (AI). Infineon's move aligns with its strategic vision to leverage its range of products and solutions to expedite both decarbonization and digitization efforts, particularly within the realms of power systems and the Internet of Things (IoT). Imagimob AB, based in Sweden, specializes in edge AI solutions tailored for industrial applications.
