세계의 자율주행차 시장 예측(-2032년) : 컴포넌트별, 자율주행 레벨별, 차량 유형별, 추진력별, 용도별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Autonomous Vehicle Market is accounted for $83.002 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $331.981 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 21.9% during the forecast period. An autonomous vehicle, often called a self-driving car, is a vehicle equipped with advanced sensors, cameras, radar, artificial intelligence, and navigation systems that allow it to operate without direct human control. These vehicles can perceive their surroundings, interpret traffic conditions, and make driving decisions in real time, such as accelerating, braking, or changing lanes. Autonomous vehicles are designed to enhance safety, improve traffic efficiency, and reduce human error-related accidents. They operate at varying automation levels, from driver assistance to fully autonomous driving, transforming future mobility.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Government support, policies & incentives

Strategic investments in pilot corridors, testing zones, and smart infrastructure are accelerating deployment across metropolitan and intercity networks. Collaborative models between OEMs, technology providers, and transport agencies are fostering scalable innovation. Legislative frameworks are evolving to accommodate V2X communication, safety protocols, and data interoperability. National mobility programs and sustainability mandates are reinforcing long-term market viability. These factors are establishing government intervention as a cornerstone of autonomous vehicle adoption.

Restraint:

Regulatory uncertainty & liability issues

Heightened scrutiny following system-related incidents has delayed regulatory harmonization across global markets. Industry stakeholders are grappling with fragmented safety standards and inconsistent data governance rules. The absence of clear liability frameworks in mixed-traffic environments is complicating commercial deployment. Operational risk is rising as manufacturers navigate jurisdictional gaps and compliance bottlenecks. These challenges are dampening investor confidence and slowing momentum despite technological maturity.

Opportunity:

Infrastructure & connectivity improvements

Investments in roadside sensors, HD mapping, and real-time traffic systems are enhancing route intelligence and situational awareness. Intelligent transport networks are enabling dynamic decision-making and seamless vehicle coordination. Urban mobility hubs and EV-compatible grids are supporting integrated deployment across modes. Enhanced connectivity is facilitating continuous data exchange between vehicles, infrastructure, and cloud platforms. These advancements are unlocking new operational capabilities and accelerating innovation in autonomous mobility.

Threat:

Technical limitations & edge-case handling

Persistent challenges in sensor calibration, algorithmic decision-making, and fail-safe execution are limiting deployment confidence. Safety incidents linked to misinterpretation or system failure continue to raise public and regulatory alarm. Manufacturers are under pressure to invest in simulation, redundancy, and real-world validation to ensure robustness. Trust and approval hinge on consistent performance across diverse and adverse conditions. These limitations are introducing strategic risk and constraining full-scale market expansion.

Covid-19 Impact:

The Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the Autonomous Vehicle market, causing temporary supply chain interruptions, production halts, and delays in raw material procurement. Automotive, mobility, and public transport sectors, which are major end-users, experienced reduced demand, impacting deployment timelines. However, the increased focus on contactless mobility, digital infrastructure, and resilient transport systems partially offset the slowdown. Post-pandemic recovery is driven by growing demand for safe, efficient, and automated vehicle platforms, along with innovations in sustainable and high-performance autonomous technologies across industries.

The passenger cars segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The passenger cars segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period owing to its widespread integration of autonomous features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automated parking. OEMs are embedding Level 2 and Level 3 autonomy into premium and mid-range models to enhance safety and convenience. Consumer demand for driver assistance systems and connected mobility is reinforcing adoption. Regulatory support for ADAS and emissions reduction is accelerating deployment. This segment continues to anchor the autonomous vehicle market, thereby boosting overall market growth.

The fleet operators & mobility providers segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the fleet operators & mobility providers segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate driven by demand for scalable, cost-efficient, and automated transport solutions. Autonomous vehicles are being deployed in ride-hailing, shuttle services, and logistics fleets to reduce labour costs and improve utilization. Integration with fleet management platforms and predictive maintenance systems is enhancing operational efficiency. Regulatory support for shared mobility and urban transport electrification is reinforcing adoption. This segment is emerging as a high-growth frontier for autonomous mobility innovation.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest market share due to its robust automotive manufacturing base, urbanization trends, and government support for autonomous mobility. Countries like China, Japan, South Korea, and India are investing in smart transport infrastructure, EV integration, and autonomous vehicle testing zones. Regional OEMs and tech firms are leading in platform development and pilot deployments. Public initiatives in clean mobility, traffic safety, and digital infrastructure are reinforcing demand. Competitive pricing and rapid urban expansion are supporting large-scale adoption.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the North America region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR by strong investment in autonomous technologies, regulatory clarity, and innovation in shared mobility. The U.S. and Canada are scaling pilot programs across urban corridors, campuses, and logistics hubs. Public-private partnerships and funding initiatives are accelerating commercialization. Demand for contactless transport, smart infrastructure, and sustainable mobility is reinforcing growth. OEMs and startups are leading in AI, sensor fusion, and platform integration.
