The electric vehicles demand is increasing globally. Increasingly stringent government regulations to control vehicle emissions and growing need to curb the pollutions levels at global level are the factors responsible for increasing demand for electric vehicles. The electric vehicles do not have similar parts as the normal IC engine vehicles. The parts differ and so does the electric vehicle testing, inspection and certification regulations and standards. This is applicable to the autonomous vehicles as well. As autonomous vehicles are driverless vehicles thus consists of a lot of sensors, software’s and electronics embedded in them. The increase in amount of software’s along with hardware suggests the requirement of software TIC market growth for automotive alongside the hardware TIC market.
The market for automotive QSM is highly fragmented. Top 3 companies share about 25% of the market share whereas top 10 cover almost about 55% to 65% of market share. Most of the market is concentrated in Europe, and North America as the countries present in these regions are highly advanced and have strict environmental and automotive TIC regulations. Recently Europe decided to adopt the world wide harmonized light vehicles test procedure (WLTP) replacing New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) to avoid emission scandals like VW.
