The global electric vehicle relay market has been witnessing significant growth over the past few years owing to the rising demand for electric vehicles across the globe. Electric vehicles offer several advantages over conventional internal combustion engine vehicles such as lower operating cost, no tailpipe emissions, and less dependency on fossil fuels. With growing concerns regarding environmental pollution and depletion of non-renewable energy sources, many countries are promoting the adoption of electric vehicles through incentives and subsidies. This has prompted leading automotive OEMs to invest aggressively in the development of electric vehicles. As electric vehicles have more electronic components compared to conventional vehicles, the demand for associated electronic components such as relays is also increasing steadily. The growing sales of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and battery electric vehicles are expected to drive the demand for electric vehicle relays during the forecast period.
Market Dynamics:
There are several drivers, restraints and opportunities that are likely to influence the market dynamics during the forecast period. Major growth drivers include growing sales of electric vehicles worldwide on the back of supportive government policies and incentives, increasing consumer preference for green vehicles to reduce carbon footprint, and development of affordable and high-performance electric vehicles by OEMs. However, high manufacturing cost of electric vehicles compared to petrol/diesel vehicles and underdeveloped charging infrastructure in developing regions are likely to restrain the market growth. Key opportunities include advancement in battery technologies to improve vehicle range per charge, development of semiconductor relays to enhance vehicle efficiency and reliability, and increasing collaboration between automakers and charging operators.
