The increasing use of electric vehicles (EVs) worldwide boosts power semiconductor demand. Government laws and subsidies, original equipment manufacturers' (OEMs') dedication to net zero emissions, and sustainability goals accelerate EV penetration in the vehicle industry. This study focuses on wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors for the North Americ...

The electric vehicle (EV) market is growing rapidly and impacting the energy market and associated services. As OEMs integrate more software-defined solutions into EVs, a potential market for digital products and services (P&S) exists. EV-dedicated digital P&S allows key participants to continuously monetize these solutions through new revenue mode...

Europe continues to be the leading market for electric vehicles. BEVs are considered ‘clean’ innovations where tech gadgets render high-tech attributes when compared to ICEs. Frost & Sullivan assessed new customer attitudes and preferences for alternative vehicles and powertrains by vehicle segment and key demographics. Frost & Sullivan carried...

Stringent emission regulations boost the growth of the emerging EV industry. Supply chain disruptions caused by COVID-19 and the Russo-Ukrainian war have led to a surge in commodity prices, which affected the global automotive value chain. In addition, economic sanctions between multiple countries have complicated the procurement of EV components;...

This strategic analysis offers an overview of BYD, primarily focusing on China Mainland and the countries to which it exports. BYD was a battery company before it joined the automotive manufacturing industry. With its rich background in batteries, it is the first EV OEM with a vertically integrated value chain and leader in the global EV market. ...

Industry digitalization increases automation on the factory floor through robots, cobots, and other autonomous machinery such as AGVs and AMRs. With rising adoption, associated issues like charging and maintenance draw focus as handling these autonomous vehicles without creating downtimes or disrupting their performance is a challenge. The ways to ...

Environmental concerns resulting from the increasingly apparent climate change effects drive the worldwide adoption of sustainable transportation. With governments phasing out vehicles that run on fossil fuels through stringent emissions regulations, people are purchasing electric vehicles (EVs) in significant numbers. The global EV market recorded...

Industry-wide fleet average CO2 emission targets for 2025 have been set to be 15% lower than 2020 levels, while 2030 levels will be 37.5% lower than 2020 levels. These targets are more stringent and are for cars only (separate targets are set for LCVs). Once the focus area for emission reduction, developments in IC engines no longer play an inte...
