The Global Automotive Radar Market was valued at $2,727.5 million in 2017 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 21.6% during the forecast period. Automotive radars are used for locating objects on the road and sensing distances between vehicles in real-time to enhance driving efficiency and road safety. The automotive radar, which consists of a receiver and a transmitter, enables sending and receiving of waves to detect object distances, speeds and directions. Automotive radars are used for applications such as collision detection, warning and mitigation, collision avoidance, blind spot monitoring and detection, lane change assistance, lane departure warning system, rear cross-traffic alerts, and vulnerable road user detection among others.

Vehicles are increasingly using surround sensing technologies for parking-assistance systems, collision-warning, and adaptive-cruise-control (ACC) systems. Higher frequency radar systems with 77 GHz to 81 GHz frequency range (79 GHz band) are used in vehicles for pedestrian detection and emergency braking systems. The growing popularity of autonomous vehicles and self-driving cars is expected to provide numerous growth opportunities for the market.

The major driving factors of the automotive radar market include growing automotive industry and increasing demand for high end luxury vehicles. The introduction of government regulations for road and vehicular safety supports the growth of the market. Automotive radar systems are being used in driver assistance systems owing to increasing cases of road accidents. The growing road traffic and increasing need to improve road safety has accelerated the adoption of automotive radars. The growing demand of autonomous vehicles, and self-driving vehicles encourages vehicle manufacturers to integrate advanced radar systems in vehicles. The increasing demand of technologically advanced vehicles from countries such as China, U.S, and Western Europe also increases the demand of automotive radar market.
