In life, automotive electronics can be seen everywhere, marking the development of a city, so the development of the automotive industry also drives the development of the fuse industry, and the automotive insurance industry has a relatively rapid development.

   Therefore, driven by the trend of lightweight, miniaturization, intelligence and electrification of automobiles, the overall market size of automotive fuses has grown rapidly. Europe and the United States have adopted mandatory regulations to improve the energy saving, emission reduction and safety performance of automobiles. The rise of consumer electronics has promoted the gradual increase of customers' requirements for the communication and entertainment functions of automobiles. Therefore, the growth rate of safety control and communication and entertainment electronics will be particularly high. Manufacturers also regard automotive electronics as the focus of differentiated competition. (Related reading: How fuses work)

   The technical development and innovation of various parts of the car have a certain impact on the industry format, so the quality of the vehicle is often linked to small parts.

  1. Parts manufacturers are moving to the front

  The innovation of automotive electronic technology is adapting to the development of energy saving, environmental protection, safety and comfort, communication and entertainment. The speed and breadth of technology innovation are unprecedented, and the content of innovation is more and more related to interdisciplinary. Such as material science (light materials), chemistry (battery), consumer electronics (communication and entertainment system), etc.

  For OEMs, the cost and risk of developing a full line of research and development is high, and the complexity of the technology makes it difficult for OEMs to undertake the development of a certain technology alone, which makes parts manufacturers more in the foreground. Fill in the technology development gaps of OEMs, and invest heavily in new technologies such as batteries, positioning, and navigation. Therefore, OEMs are outsourcing more and more components, and the standardization and modularization of components is also advancing, which is just in line with the channelization strategy implemented by OEMs to reduce costs and enhance the flexibility of production lines. combine.

  2. The degree of specialization of manufacturers advances

  With the deepening of the complexity of technological innovation, the complexity and professionalism of a single component or component module are advancing, and the synergy between manufacturers developing and producing components of different modules or systems is becoming less and less. Obviously, some well-known parts manufacturers divest non-central businesses and conduct horizontal acquisitions instead of vertical acquisitions, so as to improve their specialization and the competitiveness of core businesses, which promotes the concentration of market segments.

  3. Cross-industry competition emerges

  As information technology, consumer electronics and other applications gradually penetrate into the automotive field, the traditional automotive industry is facing the impact from new industries such as mobile Internet and consumer electronics. Internet companies expect to strengthen existing business and improve cloud service capabilities by acquiring or increasing customer traffic, thus accelerating the deployment of automobile terminals and turning automobiles into an important import and channel for the Internet. Relying on their own technical advantages, many information technology companies have crossed into the automotive industry to promote the informatization and intelligent development of automobiles.
