Demand for high security and theft protection in vehicles is notably driving the market growth. Auto theft has been a persistent issue globally. The need to address the growing concern of vehicle theft has led to increased demand for effective security solutions. Automobile immobilizers serve as a crucial deterrent, making it more difficult for thieves to steal vehicles. Governments and regulatory bodies in many countries, such as the US, Canada, and China, have implemented and strengthened regulations mandating the inclusion of anti-theft devices, such as immobilizers, in new vehicles. Compliance with these regulations has become a standard practice for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
Moreover, vehicles equipped with effective immobilizers are less susceptible to theft, leading to a reduction in insurance claims related to stolen vehicles. Insurers benefit from lower claim payouts, reinforcing the financial incentive to encourage the adoption of anti-theft technologies. Thus, the demand for high security and theft protection in vehicles has been a significant driver for market growth during the forecast period.
The adoption of biometric-based vehicle security systems is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. A higher level of security is provided by biometric authentication methods, including facial recognition, iris scanning, and fingerprint recognition, compared to traditional key or electronic fob-based systems. Biometrics are unique to everyone, making it more difficult for unauthorized users to gain access to the vehicle. Biometric systems reduce the risk associated with key theft because the key is essentially a part of the user's body, such as fingerprints and retinas. This mitigates the vulnerabilities associated with traditional keys or electronic fobs that can be lost, stolen, or duplicated.
However, biometric systems align with these goals and may become part of regulatory requirements. While the adoption of biometric-based vehicle security systems may face challenges such as cost and standardization, the potential benefits in terms of security and user experience could drive increased demand for biometric features in the market, thus resulting in the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The high replacement cost of electronic and smart keys is a significant challenge hindering the market growth. Electronic and smart keys are equipped with advanced technology, including transponders, remote control features, and, in some cases, biometric authentication. The complexity of these systems makes the keys more expensive to manufacture and replace compared to traditional mechanical keys. In many modern vehicles, electronic keys are not just keys but integral components of the overall vehicle security and access system.
However, vehicle manufacturers often control the production and replacement of these keys, reducing competition and options for consumers, which can lead to higher costs. Therefore, the high replacement cost of electronic and smart keys does pose a challenge for systems, hindering the growth of the global automobile immobilizer market during the forecast period.
