Dublin, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Intelligent Vehicle Cockpit-driving Integration (Cockpit-driving-parking) Industry Report, 2024-2025" report has been added to offering.

This report combs through and summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of driving-parking integration, cockpit-parking integration and cockpit-driving integration (cockpit-driving-parking), their implementation modes, business models, used chips, market application and distribution, OEMs' planning and layout, competitive landscape, and suppliers, and analyzes and predicts the market size of cockpit-driving integration (cockpit-driving-parking).

In the current general trend towards EEA centralization and OEMs' cost reduction needs, driving-parking integration, cockpit-parking integration and cockpit-driving integration (cockpit-driving-parking) domain controllers have come into being. Compared with cockpit-parking integration and cockpit-driving integration, driving-parking integration is implemented earlier and develops relatively maturely. Driving-parking integration began to be applied in 2021, and went into mass production in 2022. In the first three quarters of 2024, nearly 1.651 million vehicles installed with driving-parking integration domain controllers were sold, a like-on-like spike of 61.9%.

In the first three quarters of 2024, the penetration rate of driving-parking integration domain controllers was 10.7%, up 3.8 percentage points from the prior-year period and 3.6 percentage points versus 2023.

In the first three quarters of 2024, driving-parking integration domain controllers were largely installed on battery electric and extended-range passenger cars, which took a combined 95.1% share. Wherein, the installation rate in battery electric cars was 23.2%, mainly Tesla; the installation rate in the extended-range cars was as high as 77.3%, led by Li Auto and Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance (HIMA).

At present, some OEMs design driving-parking integration domain controllers by themselves, and outsource production to third-party suppliers, for example, Tesla (Quanta/Pegatron) and NIO (Flex); some large strong OEMs like Great Wall Motor (Haomo.ai) and BYD (BYD Research Institute) self-develop and self-produce the controllers; Li Auto, HIMA, Zeekr, Xiaomi, IM Motors, and Xpeng among others choose to cooperate with third-party suppliers.

Among the driving-parking integration domain controller suppliers, Desay SV holds a safe lead, alone taking a 30% share in the market. It has formed partnerships with Li Auto, Xiaomi, Zeekr, and Xpeng. Its best-selling products include IPU03 (Horizon J5/NVIDIA Xavier) and IPU04 (NVIDIA Orin X).

The share of single-chip solutions for driving-parking integration domain controllers reached 41%.

Driving-parking integration domain controllers generally adopt multi-chip solutions, but single-chip solutions have already taken a favorable market share (41%), and are expected to prevail in the market soon in the general trend for reducing costs and improving efficiency.

In the first three quarters of 2024, driving-parking integration domain controllers for passenger cars used a total of 2.68 million chips. Only Tesla (self-use), NVIDIA, and Huawei HiSilicon (mainly for HIMA) together sweep 76% of the market, showing a high market concentration. As concerns chip compute and process, the mainstream chips Tesla's second-generation FSD, Nvidia Orin-X, and Huawei HiSilicon Ascend 610 all boast higher than 100 TOPS and 7nm process.

Cockpit-parking integration solutions lower costs and improve efficiency mainly by saving a parking chip and exploiting the compute redundancy of the cockpit chip. For mainly processing image display and audio functions, the cockpit chip has relatively high GPU compute, but limited NPU compute. It is more suitable for integrating basic parking functions and targets vehicle models priced below RMB200,000. The two cockpit-parking integration models launched in August 2024 are both priced within RMB150,000

As an advanced form of cross-domain integration, cockpit-driving integration is the focus of the layout by players. It was put into use in 2023, ahead of cockpit-parking integration. In April 2023, Voyah Passion, the first model packing a cockpit-driving integration domain controller, was rolled off on market. In just one and a half years, models that actually apply cockpit-driving integration function have numbered up to 17.

From the supplier side, in current stage cockpit-driving integration domain controllers are primarily developed and designed by OEMs, and produced by third parties. Voyah, a subsidiary of the traditional OEM Dongfeng, however adopts the cooperative product of the third-party suppliers Neusoft Reach and Megatronix. Geely, Changan, BAIC and GAC, which plan to set foot in the market in 2025, have established relations with different suppliers on R&D of cockpit-driving integration. There is still huge market space left for suppliers in the future.

Desay SV signed cooperation agreements with GAC Hyper and Chery in April and October 2024, respectively, on cockpit-driving integration domain controllers. In October, it also brought related products to Geely to exchange and share technological innovation and application.

Among the current cockpit-driving integration models, except for the low-end edition (within RMB200,000) of Leapmotor C Series, all other models have adopted a multi-chip solution, with a typical configuration of mainstream intelligent cockpit chip (Qualcomm 8155/8295) + mainstream intelligent driving chip (Nvidia Orin-X). Regarding single-chip solutions, multiple OEMs and suppliers prefer Nvidia Thor and Qualcomm Ride Flex SA8775P chips, both of which are scheduled to come into mass production in 2025.
