Automotive HUD Market by Technology (AR-based HUD, Conventional), HUD Type (Combiner, Windshield), Offering (Hardware, Software), Vehicle Class, Level of Autonomy, Dimension Type, Vehicle Type (PC, CV), EV Type and Region - Global Forecast to 2028

The global automotive HUD market size is projected to grow from USD 1.0 billion in 2023 to USD 2.2 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 16.6%. Increasing awareness about passenger as well as vehicle safety in conjunction with steady growth in demand for luxury and high-end segment cars, mainly in emerging markets are expected to bolster the revenue growth of the automotive HUD market during the forecast period. In addition, rising demand for connected vehicles paired with increasing demand for enhanced in-vehicle experience are also major factors expected to drive the market growth.

The windshield HUD segment is estimated to grow at a noticeable CAGR during the forecast period

Windshield HUDs offer more information compared to combiner HUDs, which, in turn, is expected to increase the demand for windshield HUDs in the near future. Additionally, the integration of augmented reality technology in windshield HUDs is expected to drive the growth of the windshield HUD segment during the forecast period. By 2028, Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest market for windshield HUDs due to the growing demand for advanced in-vehicle technology in advanced markets such as China and Japan, increasing demand for premium vehicles with advanced in-vehicle safety systems, and a significant installation rate of windshield HUDs in mid-segment vehicles.

2D HUD segment is likely to dominate the automotive HUD market during the forecast period

The 2D HUD segment is expected to have significant growth opportunities in the automotive HUD market during the forecast period. 2D HUDs project real-time information about the vehicle’s speed, upcoming turns, traffic conditions, and relevant warnings, which, in turn, help vehicle owners/drivers stay aware of their surrounding environment and make informed decisions. In addition, 2D HUDs can work in conjunction with various advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and safety features, displaying alerts and relevant information from these systems directly to the driver. All these aforementioned parameters are likely to support the revenue growth of the 2D HUD segment during the forecast period.

Asia Pacific shows high growth potential for automotive HUD market

Asia Pacific is projected to be the largest market for automotive HUDs during the forecast period. Countries such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific are considered under Asia Pacific for market analysis.
