Infotainment and telematics
The infotainment and telematics segment of the global automotive software market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.34% through 2021, making it the fastest growing application segment. The increasing demand for infotainment systems in mid-segment and mass produced segment, which was earlier limited to premium vehicles, is a key factor responsible for the growth of the market segment. Also, the rise in disposable income due to sustained economic growth is resulting in high demand for infotainment systems, which has reduced their average selling price (ASP), resulting in its higher adoption.
