06 Mar 2024 CW Team

The Mahindra XUV 700, renowned for its pillar-to-pillar display and advanced ADAS suite, stands as a testament to Visteon's prowess in supplying cutting-edge automotive technologies. Now, the American major is poised to embark on horizontal integration, merging ADAS and cockpit functions onto a single chip.

Sachin Lawande, President and CEO of Visteon, expressed his vision for this integrated solution, stating, We see a similar dynamic now, getting to the next level by integrating ADAS and the cockpit onto one chip. Lawande anticipates significant cost savings and convenience with the combined system, pegged at USD 600, offering a unified platform for safety, entertainment, and infotainment information.

This innovative approach heralds a new era in automotive technology deployment, with India potentially being the first to adopt this transformative solution. Lawande predicts India's hyper-competitive automotive market to mirror China's trajectory, driving swift adoption of advanced technologies.

Moreover, Visteon's strategic focus on ADAS underscores its commitment to expanding its portfolio and business sustainability. With India's ADAS market projected to reach USD 1 billion by FY28, Visteon is gearing up to capitalize on this growing trend. The company plans to augment its India engineering team to spearhead the integration, testing, and validation of ADAS technologies for the domestic market.

While ADAS represents a promising business space for Visteon, the company's stronghold remains its instrument cluster business, which generated over half of its revenue last year. With fresh investments totaling USD 20 million to bolster manufacturing capacity in India, Visteon aims to meet the burgeoning demand for advanced display units.

Visteon's latest offering, the Deco Trim Command and Control Display, promises design flexibility and seamless integration, poised to capture a growing share of the burgeoning Indian display market.

As the global automotive instrument cluster market gears up for substantial growth, Visteon stands at the forefront of innovation, poised to reshape India's automotive technology landscape. With a bullish outlook on India's automotive sector, Lawande envisions a future where displays become ubiquitous, fueling India's automotive growth story.
