Infineon Technologies strengthens its dominant positions in the automotive semiconductors market on a global and regional scale, particularly in microcontrollers. Infineon attained a market share of 13.5% in the worldwide automotive semiconductor industry in 2024, as per the most recent market data from TechInsights.
With a 14.1 percent market share, the corporation rose from second place in 2023 to the top spot in Europe. Additionally, Infineon bolstered its position in North America, moving up from third place to the second-largest market player with a 10.4 percent share.
The worldwide market share for microcontrollers increased once more to 32.0 percent, giving it a 2.7 percentage point advantage over the competitor in second position.
Additionally, with a 13.9 percent market share in China, the largest market for automotive semiconductors, and a 17.7 percent market share in South Korea, Infineon continued to hold its top spots.
With a 13.2 percent share, the corporation solidified its second-place position in Japan. The overall value of the worldwide automotive semiconductor market in 2024 was US$68.4 billion, a 1.2% decrease from US$69.2 billion in 2023.
In order to make vehicles cleaner, safer, and smarter, Infineon’s semiconductors are crucial to the digitalization and decarbonization process. They support all of the main automobile applications, including infotainment and comfort features, engine and battery management, and driver assistance and safety systems.
As the foundation for software-defined vehicles, a primary goal is to facilitate the development of electrical/electronic (E/E) vehicle architectures toward more centralized zonal designs. This calls for real-time processing power, intelligent power distribution, and cutting-edge networking and data security.
