Europe Software Defined Vehicle Market (2024-2030)

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the software defined vehicle (SDV) market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down approach was employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.

Secondary Research

Secondary sources referred to for this research study included software defined vehicle industry organizations; corporate filings such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements; trade and business whitepapers and databases; and articles from recognized associations and government publishing sources. The secondary data was collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall market size, which was further validated by primary research.

Primary Research

Extensive primary research was conducted after acquiring an understanding of this market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from the demand- and supply-side OEMs (in terms of component supply, country-level government associations, and trade associations) and component manufacturers across four major regions, namely, Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World. Approximately 60% and 40% of primary interviews were conducted from the demand and supply side, respectively. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, LinkedIn, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and administration, were covered to provide a holistic viewpoint in the report.

Brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants were conducted to reinforce findings from primaries after interacting with industry experts. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, led to the findings, as described in the remainder of this report.

In the primary research process, various primary sources from the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for the report. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts, such as Vice Presidents (VPs), marketing directors, technology and innovation directors, and related key executives from various key companies and organizations. The primary sources from the demand side included end users, such as Chief Information Officers (CIOs), consultants, service professionals, technicians and technologists, and managers at public and investor-owned utilities.
