A battery management system manages batteries used in high-voltage hybrid and electric vehicles. Electric vehicle manufacturers and battery pack manufacturers integrate a battery management system into Li-ion batteries to protect the battery pack. The overall battery system in an electric vehicle is a combination of multiple components such as battery modules, sensors, controllers, thermal management systems, and battery management systems. With the rise in concerns regarding environmental protection and positive initiatives taken by governments to reduce emissions, the demand for electric and hybrid vehicles is anticipated to grow at an impressive pace during the forecast period of 2022 to 2028. This, in turn, will fuel the automotive battery management system market growth.
The global electric vehicle and battery pack industry is characterized by the presence of a few very well-known and financially strong companies such as Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Tesla. Owing to this, the bargaining power of buyers in the automotive battery management system market size is quite high. Owing to the continuous research and development in the electric vehicles coupled with fast automotive battery management system market growth, the bargaining power of buyers is estimated to remain high during 2019–2027. The major companies in the automotive battery management system market size use different strategies while planning battery systems for their vehicles. Continuous advancements in the technology sector are anticipated to put pressure on battery management system providers to adapt the changes to sustain their market position. Owing to this fact, buyers also have a high tendency to switch BMS providers over a period of time depending on their specific requirements and technology portfolio of BMS providers.
The COVID-19 outbreak dramatically impacted the global economy during its peak in 2020, hampering business activities in manufacturing industries. Before the outbreak, the automotive battery management system market share was experiencing substantial growth owing to increased sales of electric vehicles, surged disposable income, and easy availability of credit and financing. Further, significant investment initiatives in developing electric vehicles propel the demand for automotive battery management systems. As per the International Council on Clean Transportation, global EV sales reached a record-high of 6.9 million in 2021, a 107% increase from 2020. However, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic slowed down the investment in and production of EVs. During the initial days of the pandemic, the crisis significantly restricted all business deals, collaborations, and partnerships that disrupted the automotive battery management system market. The emergence of the pandemic hampered the sales of vehicles in February 2020; furthermore, the sales dropped by 47% in the US and 80% in Europe by April. As per a report by Statista, global car sales dropped to 63.8 million in 2020 and registered a slow recovery in 2021 with 66 million sales.

Electric vehicle (EV) sales are growing at a fast pace owing to increasing concerns about environmental protection and government policies favoring the adoption of low-emission and zero-emission vehicles. Subsidies and tax rebates offered by governments encourage manufacturers to scale up their processes. Per the Global Electric Vehicle Outlook, the sales of electric cars, including fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, reached 6.6 million units in 2021. In the same year, sales in China surged to reach 3.3 million, accounting for about half of the global sales. Furthermore, EV sales grew by 65% in Europe to reach 2.3 million units, while sales in the US doubled to 630,000 units in 2021. Thus, an increase in investments in charging infrastructure and a rise in the number of favorable government policies are propelling battery manufacturing scales, thereby bolstering the demand for automotive battery management system market.
Based on vehicle type, the automotive battery management system market is segmented into bus, trucks, and off-highway vehicle. In 2022, the bus segment accounted for the largest share of the automotive battery management system market owing to the increasing adoption of batteries in buses for mitigating carbon emissions. Moreover, the trucks segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The demand for battery management systems is significantly increasing by the electric bus manufacturers owing to growing initiatives for optimal battery performance and monitoring of battery pack temperature. Additionally, the need for electric school buses is also growing in different countries to reduce carbonization, which is also enabling the electric school bus manufacturers to scale up their production lines. Several governments of different countries are adopting green technology buses, which is fueling the demand for electric coach buses, thus, bolstering the growth of the automotive battery management system market.
Players operating in the automotive battery management system market are mainly focused on the development of advanced and efficient products.
The automotive battery management system market is segmented into five major regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), the Rest of World.
