세계의 자동차 시장 : 산업 규모, 점유율, 동향, 기회, 예측 - 차종별, 추진 방식별, 지역별, 경쟁 정세(2020-2030년)

Global automotive market was valued at USD 3.11 Trillion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 3.82 Trillion by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period. The global automotive market is undergoing a significant transformation driven by shifting consumer preferences, stringent environmental regulations, and rapid advancements in technology. One of the primary growth factors is the accelerating global push toward vehicle electrification, supported by government incentives, infrastructure development, and heightened environmental awareness. Countries across Europe, North America, and parts of Asia are committing to carbon neutrality goals, propelling demand for electric and hybrid vehicles. In parallel, the automotive sector is experiencing a technological revolution with the integration of autonomous driving capabilities, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), connectivity features, and smart infotainment systems-transforming vehicles into connected digital ecosystems. The rise of shared mobility and mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) platforms, especially in urban centers, is reshaping how consumers perceive car ownership, thereby influencing fleet-based demand and urban vehicle designs.

Moreover, post-pandemic recovery and economic revival across emerging markets like India, Brazil, and Southeast Asia are creating robust opportunities for both internal combustion and low-emission vehicles, as rising disposable incomes and improved road infrastructure fuel demand. Sustainability trends are also playing a crucial role, with manufacturers increasingly focusing on eco-friendly materials, circular economy models, and carbon-neutral production facilities. Furthermore, global supply chain diversification and re-shoring strategies, especially in light of semiconductor shortages and geopolitical tensions, are prompting OEMs to invest in localized manufacturing and resilient procurement practices. Technological collaboration between automakers and tech firms is accelerating innovation in battery technology, over-the-air software updates, and cybersecurity, ensuring that vehicles remain safe and upgradable throughout their lifecycle. Investment in hydrogen and natural gas-based propulsion is also gaining traction in commercial vehicle segments, providing an alternative route to decarbonization.

Market Drivers

Electrification and Sustainability Transition

One of the most powerful drivers propelling the global automotive market is the accelerated transition toward electrification and sustainable mobility. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug in hybrids (PHEVs) comprised approximately 18% of all new car sales in 2023, up from 14% in 2022. They are projected to account for 25% of global car sales in 2025. This shift is being fueled by mounting concerns over climate change, the depletion of fossil fuels, and tightening global emission regulations. Countries across Europe, North America, and parts of Asia have announced firm targets to phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in favor of electric vehicles (EVs) and low-emission alternatives by 2030-2040. These regulatory mandates are accompanied by generous government subsidies, tax benefits, and direct consumer incentives aimed at reducing the upfront cost of EVs and encouraging adoption. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are responding by investing billions in developing electric powertrain platforms, battery technology, and charging infrastructure. Companies like Volkswagen, General Motors, Toyota, and Hyundai are scaling production of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) across all price segments-from entry-level city cars to luxury SUVs. Furthermore, innovations in solid-state batteries, thermal management, and fast-charging solutions are steadily addressing range anxiety and charging time concerns, two critical bottlenecks to mainstream EV adoption. The increasing availability of renewable energy sources and integration of EVs into smart grids further enhance the green credentials of electric mobility. Moreover, the emergence of circular economy models, such as vehicle recycling, second-life battery applications, and carbon-neutral manufacturing processes, demonstrates how sustainability is no longer a fringe agenda but a central growth pillar. As a result, the electrification trend is reshaping global supply chains, supplier-OEM relationships, and consumer preferences, driving substantial investments and strategic realignments across the entire automotive value chain.

Key Market Challenges

Supply Chain Disruptions and Raw Material Volatility

One of the most pressing challenges facing the global automotive industry is the continued vulnerability of supply chains, especially in the wake of geopolitical tensions, pandemic aftereffects, and resource scarcity. The industry has witnessed repeated disruptions in the availability of critical components-most notably semiconductors, which are essential for vehicle electronics, infotainment systems, ADAS, and EV powertrains. The global chip shortage that began in 2020 is still having residual effects, with production schedules being revised or halted due to inconsistent chip supply. Automakers have been forced to delay new launches, reduce feature sets, or idle factories. Beyond semiconductors, the demand surge for rare earth elements and critical battery materials like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese has created volatility in global prices and supply security. These materials are heavily concentrated in a few regions-such as the Democratic Republic of Congo for cobalt and China for rare earth processing-making automakers susceptible to regional instabilities and trade restrictions. Moreover, the shift to electric mobility has amplified pressure on mining and processing capacities, while environmental concerns and regulatory hurdles delay new exploration projects. Port congestion, container shortages, rising freight costs, and increasing geopolitical instability (such as U.S.-China trade tensions and conflicts in Europe and the Middle East) further compound the supply chain issues. While companies are now actively diversifying suppliers, nearshoring, and investing in local manufacturing hubs, such transitions take time and significant capital. Until greater resilience is built into the system, supply chain disruption remains a substantial barrier to market scalability, profitability, and consistent product delivery.

Key Market Trends

Rise of Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) and Vehicle-as-a-Platform (VaaP)

One of the most transformative trends in the global automotive market is the evolution of vehicles into software-defined platforms. In contrast to traditional vehicles, where mechanical systems dominated, modern cars-especially electric and connected vehicles-are increasingly reliant on complex software to deliver everything from vehicle control to personalized experiences. Software-defined vehicles (SDVs) enable features such as remote diagnostics, over-the-air (OTA) updates, real-time navigation, adaptive infotainment, and even advanced driver-assistance capabilities. Automakers are shifting toward centralized computing architectures that replace multiple electronic control units (ECUs) with high-performance domain controllers that can support cross-functional software stacks. Tesla pioneered this approach, allowing its cars to receive new features and performance improvements via software updates, and legacy players like Ford, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, and General Motors are rapidly following suit. This has given rise to the Vehicle-as-a-Platform (VaaP) business model, where OEMs monetize post-sale services through subscription plans, app stores, and data-enabled features. For instance, BMW and Mercedes have introduced subscription-based heated seats, performance boosts, and navigation upgrades. This transition to SDVs is also encouraging automakers to build in-house software teams and collaborate with tech firms like Google (Android Automotive OS), Amazon (AWS for cloud connectivity), and Nvidia (Drive platforms). As vehicles become more integrated with cloud services and AI capabilities, the automotive value chain is shifting from hardware-centric manufacturing to a software-driven service ecosystem. This paradigm not only enhances user experience but also allows for continuous vehicle improvement, feature customization, and deeper engagement with consumers throughout the ownership lifecycle.
