Drive by Wire Market Size

Drive by Wire Market size is estimated at USD 25.5 billion in 2024 and is expected to surpass USD 69.3 billion by the end of 2037, rising at a CAGR of 8% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-2037. In 2025, the industry size of drive by wire is assessed at USD 27.5 billion.     

Due to the increase in demand for advanced safety and control systems in vehicles, the market of drive by wire is experiencing a rapid surge. The strategic movement toward electric and autonomous vehicles is a reason behind the prevalence of these systems as they provide better integration and further functionality with modern automotive needs. The environmental benefits of reducing the number of mechanical linkages and the potential improvement in fuel efficiency are other important drivers. The increasing demand for better driving experiences on the part of consumers and continuous innovative efforts on the part of the automotive industry further create lucrative opportunities for market growth. 

Governments around the world undertake various initiatives and regulations to encourage the installation of drive by wire systems. In January 2024, REE received its first U.S. certification for a fully electronic-controlled vehicle in a report by the U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Such regulatory clearance has significance for market growth, since newly developed technologies are found to be compliant with stringent standards related to the safety and protection of the environment. Further, multiple government-funded R&D projects are being executed to extend the capability and reliability of drive by wire systems.
