Body Control Module Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Vehicle Type (Light Duty Vehicle, Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Other Vehicle Types), Component, Functionality, Electric Vehicle, Communication Protocol, Bit Size, Power Distribution Component and By GeographyAccording to Stratistics MRC, the Global Body Control Module Market is accounted for $34.9 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $47.8 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. An electronic control unit called the body control module (BCM) is in charge of keeping an eye on and managing all of the installed electronic components in a car. The power windows, power mirrors, air conditioning, immobilizer system, central locking, and a number of additional features can all be controlled by the BCM. The vehicle bus, an internal communication network connecting various vehicle components, serves as the interface between the BCM and on-board processors. Its main function is to control load drivers, which in turn activate relays to carry out functions such as locking the doors or dimming the salon overhead lamp. BCM makes use of potent microprocessors to link inputs and outputs.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Embedded body control module solutions

The increasing importance of embedded software in vehicle development is one of the key trends influencing this industry. The demand for complicated embedded automotive solutions is driven by the tiny size of these systems. The installation of new location-navigation systems in cars, the detection of potential problems early on, and avoiding the need for hurried mechanical part replacement are all made possible by advanced fleet management video telematics and embedded electronics.

Restraint:

Increasing cost pressures OEMs face

OEMs are facing intense cost pressure as a result of dynamic rules imposed on numerous vehicle components. OEMs' high-cost pressures were influenced by strict emission regulations, significant R&D expenditures, market competitiveness, and changing customer needs. Additionally, they are responsible for any such product failures or recalls, which can have an effect on the bottom line, since they are required to keep production costs low in order to fulfill demand while simultaneously delivering high-quality products. These elements could limit market expansion during the anticipated term.

Opportunity:

Increasing demand for small and reliable BCMs

The design of automotive BCMs has primarily become more intricate. Despite the fact that many BCMs are used to account for the rising electronic content in automobiles, there is an increasing need for tiny BCMs. BCM producers have also started making compact and reliable BCMs for cars thanks to ongoing market innovation and advancement. As a result, the market for body control modules will experience favourable growth over the course of the forecast period due to the trend of ongoing innovation and growing demand for compact, dependable modules.

Threat:

Increase in complexity of module

BCMs are embedded systems with embedded software, which is what causes them to become more sophisticated, complex, and line-intensive. OEMs utilizing BCMs must control the rise in complexity that causes services in vehicles to fail. The integration of BCMs causes a complex network topology, as w ell as communication and interface issues with the controlling units. Therefore, it is anticipated that all of these factors will in the near future restrain the growth of the body control module market .

Covid-19 Impact

The global market for body control modules was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. Vehicle sales significantly reduced as a result of the pandemic as consumer spending fell and economic uncertainty increased. Automobile producers had cut their output due to a decline in vehicle demand. The body control module (BCM) market was immediately influenced by this reduction in demand. The global manufacturing and supply chain were interrupted by closures and limitations imposed to stop the outbreak. Finding the necessary components, especially BCMs, was challenging for many electronics vendors and manufacturers, which caused manufacturing delays and product shortages.

The high end segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The high end segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth. OEMs are being forced to deploy high-end body control modules in vehicle models as a result of the rising demand for concierge body function inside the vehicles and handling such a crucial function. A microcontroller with a higher configuration is placed in BCM. High BCM is utilized in windshield wipers, seat adjustments, central locking systems, and outside and interior illumination.

The controller area network (CAN) segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The controller area network (CAN) segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period. As the internet of things (IoT), connected car, and cloud computing technologies have developed, the CAN bus has taken the lead in the global market. On the basis of application, the market can also be segmented into MCVs and HCVs, LCVs, and passenger automobiles. Due to a rise in demand for passenger cars in both developed and emerging nations, the passenger car segment is anticipated to grow more quickly throughout the projected period.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. One of the top makers of automobiles are nations in the Asia Pacific, including China, South Korea, and others are India. The Chinese automotive sector is anticipated to develop tenfold throughout the projection period. Due to increased vehicle production and the installation of additional electronic components, the need for body control modules is anticipated to increase in the upcoming years.

Region with highest CAGR:

Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the increase in premium car manufacture. The demand infotainment systems, and in-car connectivity is also driving regional market growth. The rising disposable income levels and increasing urbanization in countries have further increased the demand for passenger cars and commercial vehicles. With the rising consumer purchasing power, vehicles with advanced features are witnessing increased adoption, further propelling the demand for BCM & Ethernet technology in the market.
