Automotive Ethernet Market size was valued at USD 3.08 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 37.1 billion by 2037, expanding at around 21.1% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of automotive ethernet is assessed at USD 3.6 billion. The increased investment by many major automakers across the globe has made multiple investments in smart vehicle integration. According to World Internet Conference and CSIS report, through February 2020, 30 of the biggest AV businesses had spent USD 16 billion on creating entirely autonomous technology. Volkswagen Group of Germany and Japanese carmaker Toyota Motor have significantly invested in this field. The American automaker Ford Motor Company recently said it will spend more than USD 4 billion on research, development, and applications for autonomous vehicles by 2023.
The growing demand for communication technology in smart cars drives the market growth. Ethernet currently offers 100 Mbps and is expected to increase to 150 Mbps compared to media-oriented systems transport. This network has been used mostly for infotainment and media systems. Modern cars use high-tech components that serve as a foundation for in-vehicle communication. Also, through ethernet technology, customers can benefit from better bandwidth, scalability, speed, and reduced latency. To ensure a seamless operation of the vehicle system and infotainment, ethernet technology offers a variety of functions and functionalities.

Automotive Ethernet Type (One Pair Ethernet, Energy-Efficient Ethernet, Power Over Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet)
The one pair ethernet segment in the automotive ethernet market is anticipated to garner the largest revenue share of 38% by 2037. Besides, the gigabit ethernet is the fastest growing segment in the market owing to increasing 5G connectivity demand and faster ADAS support system. Link weight is reduced by using a single pair of gigabit ethernets as a high-speed spine for 1TCPE traffic. Additionally, GIG-E serves as a direct connection between the system spine and diagnostics, ADAS cameras, infotainment video, and other applications with data requirements greater than 100Mbps. The GIG-E technology supports 15 meters over unshielded vehicle cabling and complies with car framework EMC requirements. Additionally, GIG-E has an IEEE standardized standard gigabit ethernet MAC interface (SGMII/RGMII/GMII).
Vehicle Type (Passenger Car, Light Commercial Vehicle, Heavy Commercial Vehicle)
Automotive ethernet market from the passenger car segment is expected to garner a significant share in the upcoming years. Factors attributing to the segment's growth are the growing demand for passenger cars across the globe and essential automakers turning towards automotive ethernet for connectivity modulation and customer needs for internet on wheels. According to OICA, around 56.4 million passenger cars were sold across the globe in 2021, accounting for 68.4% of global car sales. Moreover, by 2020, there were close to 400 million vehicle ethernet ports in use. The total number of automotive ethernet ports is anticipated to surpass all other ethernet ports by 2023.
