The integration of AI also enhanced the R&D workflows to streamline the modeling procedure. The data for training and validating AI models is also being utilized for software development. The automotive manufacturers, OEMs, and government regulatory authorities consume the software component of automotive simulation programs. Automotive companies also partner to work on software development and auto simulation.

For instance, in April 2023, Hyundai Motor and Kia announced their software development alliance to fuel Software Defined Vehicle (SDV) conversion. Both companies signed a multilateral MoU with 17 companies named Hyundai Motor Group Model-Based Development (MBD) Consortium to enhance virtual verification technology.

Asia-Pacific Dominates Automotive Simulation Market

The Asia-Pacific has become the center for automotive research and development. This is due to the higher consumption of vehicles, the government's focus on product development, and the origin of major automotive brands. The talented workforce, favorable business climate, and automotive research hubs are expected to make Asia-Pacific a leading global automotive simulation market region. Furthermore, emerging economies like China and India hold many automotive companies and startups. India, with its vibrant research ecosystem, has skilled engineers who are constantly developing automotive simulation technology. The international simulation experts are also keenly interested in serving market players in the Asia-Pacific region.

For example, in November 2023, Simulation specialist IPG Automotive established its space in India to support local automotive manufacturers while expanding its international presence.

Future Market Scenario (2024 - 2031F)

Frequently changing vehicle design, the advent of electric vehicles, advanced prototyping, and testing operations are expected to transform the market dynamics.
