Use the interactive graph to learn about the strategies of major suppliers and carmakers.

Technological competitiveness includes

  • a strong portfolio of Level 1-4 features for private cars, autonomous trucks, shared mobility and other use cases (Level 4 features, such as Highway Chauffeur, City and Valet Parking are in development);
  • a comprehensive and robust set of sensors (e.g. imaging radar, solid-state lidar).
  • capabilities in centralised E/E Architecture, SW Stack, Validation-Verification and others.

Let's have a look at some of them taking the example of Bosch, the world's biggest automotive supplier by revenue.

  • ADAS Features: Bosch is developing L4-Highway features but we assess that other Tier-1s, such as APTIV, have stronger capabilities at the moment in this feature.
  • Sensors: Bosch has a strong position in ADAS but needs further innovation for L3-4. The addition of Lidar and supercomputers to its portfolio is in the right direction but the company faces competition for Lidar from other Tier 1s, such as Valeo for Mercedes-Benz's L3.
  • Validation: Bosch led a research project called 'VVM' , short for verification and validation methods of Level 4 and Level 5 autonomous vehicles, launched on 11 July 2019 with a duration of 4 years. Under the leadership of two consortium leaders Bosch and BMW, with funding from the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, 23 well-known industry & research partners will jointly develop legally viable, time-efficient and cost-effective verification and validation methods. Using the example of a complex urban crossroads application, VVM will develop essential innovations combining virtual and real-life tests.
  • Robotaxis: Daimler - Bosch had a consortium for L4 robotaxis in urban environments that ended in Aug'21. Bosch is the sensor supplier, i.e. developing the sensors, and computing platforms as part of its partnership with Daimler who is the lead partner and developer of the SW. Bosch is developing SW on their own for L3+ (not any other L4 as of today).

Market Positioning

This parameter captures:

  • Number of clients in ADAS sensors and features, incl. Carmakers, Trucks, AMOD
  • Clients in Top-4 major markets: China, USA, EU, Japan
  • ADAS revenues
  • Market shares in sensors, features and regional
  • ADAS-to-Sales ratio to show their focus on AD

Trends in Market Leadership of ADAS Suppliers

  • The Top-15 Suppliers recorded Euro-360 Billion in Automotive revenue in 2023.
  • The Top-10 Suppliers recorded Euro-25.7 Billion in R&D spending in 2023. Bosch led R&D expenditure followed by ZF and Denso.
  • Mobileye has the highest R&D intensity across Tier-1s, followed by Bosch and Valeo

Which suppliers are better prepared for the new era of Autonomous Mobility?

"Auto2x assessed the readiness levels of major Tier-1 suppliers and emerging players based on their technological competitiveness, their strategy execution and their market positioning."

The first parameter, Technology Competitiveness, captures the product portfolio of sensors, features, architecture, software stack and innovation (patents).

Auto2x assesses that APTIV and Continental have high readiness levels in Level 4 Autonomous Driving Technology due to their mature offering in Lidar, Software stack and Computing Platforms.

Baidu offers competitive technology due to Apollo's strengths.

  • Strategy Execution, the 2nd parameter, covers a supplier's partnerships, investments, ADAS manpower, activities in autonomous mobility and more.

Bosch and Mobileye lead the pack in this parameter, with strong in-house capabilities, a partner ecosystem in high-growth areas and investments in key markets.

Continental is a 100% system supplier from design and manufacturing to validation and expansion to new services in system integration and functions. This makes them well-positioned.

  • Market Positioning, the 3rd parameter, captures the volume of ADAS revenues from sensors and features, sensor market share, client base and geographical presence.

Major Automotive Tier-1 Suppliers like Bosch, ZF, Valeo, Denso and Continental still maintain the lion's share in terms of automotive revenues.

Furthermore, their revenues from ADAS, electrification and new mobility business models are increasing. ADAS revenues from the Top-12 Suppliers rose 12.5% in 2021 y-y to Euro-16 Billion. Auto2x expects it will double by 2025 to Euro-35 Billion.

Continental led the ADAS market by revenues between 2015 and 2018, mainly by capitalising on its dominance in the camera market.

But they were overtaken by Bosch in 2019, who leads the market by ADAS revenues since then. The contracts with OEMs for ADAS and the ability to support driving and parking features for higher levels of automation are strengths.

  • Overall Readiness Level: The Ranking of Suppliers Readiness in Level 4 Autonomous Driving is based on their competence in three parameters, Strategy (30% weight), Technology (40%) and Market Position (30%).

Auto2x found that Bosch leads the ADAS market by revenues from sensors for Level 1-2 features, but they lag in Technology Readiness for Level 4 Autonomous Driving.

Another success story is Mobileye which spearheads INTEL's Autonomous Driving strategy and has captured a large share in ADAS. Mobileye ranks at the Top-3 of Auto2x's Ranking of Suppliers by Readiness in level-4 Automated Driving.

European suppliers lead the race but Chinese Suppliers are catching up

ZF and Continental broke the Euro-2 Billion mark in ADAS revenues, but challenges remain
