DUBLIN, Mar 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Autonomous Vehicles Market - Analysis & Forecast (2016-2025) (Focus on Major Levels of Technology and Vehicle Types)" report to their offering.

The global autonomous vehicle market is experiencing an exponential growth rate due to the rising concerns for improving road safety and ease of driving experience. This high scale of growth of the autonomous vehicle industry is subsequently influencing the market, wherein companies are testing the efficiency and feasibility of their automated systems.

Autonomous systems in automobiles have emerged as a major necessity in the current times. Automated systems assisting drivers, reduces the driver's burden and allows drivers to multi task during the journey, and ultimately improves the overall driving experience. The integration of automated systems in vehicles allows vehicles to sense the obstacles beyond the user's sight, therefore, have significantly helped in increasing the road safety for both pedestrians and drivers, reducing the traffic congestion, and improves the fuel efficiency of the vehicles. Owing to these market driving factors, the autonomous vehicle market is expected to grow exponentially, in the period 2015-2025.

Some of the key players developing and testing the autonomous features include Daimler AG, Audi AG, General Motors Company, Toyota Motor Corporation, Ford Motor Company, Tesla Motors, Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, Navya Tech, Denso Corporation, HERE, EasyMile and Mobileye N.V. These players are testing different autonomous systems on the basis of level of autonomy and the vehicle type (passenger cars and commercial vehicles) to which the systems are to be integrated with.

Passenger cars currently lead the autonomous vehicle market both in terms of value (level 1 market value) and volume (number of vehicles equipped with level 2 automated features). At the same time, there is high expected growth of automated commercial vehicles due to the vast application use of these automated vehicles. Some of the applications of commercial vehicles include taxi services (ride-sharing basis), transportation (goods and passengers) and product delivery.

Europe currently dominates the autonomous vehicle market (in terms of level 1 value and level 2 volume) due the presence of major technology manufacturers, high disposable income, early commercialization of automated vehicles and public organizations supporting the advancement of these vehicles. Europe followed by North America, contributes second most share in the autonomous vehicle market. Furthermore, there is a high market growth potential in APAC region, due to the presence of several key industry players and imminent need of autonomous vehicles to curb the problems arising due to high traffic density.
