Overview

The automotive Wi-Fi market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by increasing adoption of connected infotainment systems, software-defined vehicle (SDV) architectures, digital cockpits, and rising demand for seamless in-car digital experiences. Automakers are increasingly embedding Wi-Fi connectivity across both premium and mass-market vehicles to support wireless smartphone projection (such as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay), over-the-air (OTA) software updates, cloud-based services, and provide Wi-Fi hotspot access to in-vehicle occupants. The shift toward advanced wireless standards, such as Wi-Fi 6, is accelerating further as vehicles become more software-driven and display-intensive.
