“Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest growing automotive temperature sensor market”

The automotive temperature sensor market for the Asia Pacific is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Factors such as the upcoming government norms for emission in developing countries and high production of vehicles are expected to drive the market growth in the region. For instance, India is likely to adopt BS6 norms by 2020.

A thermistor temperature sensor is estimated to hold the largest market share from 2017 to 2025

Thermistors are more sensitive to temperatures with higher nominal resistance values than RTDs. The thermistors are used for engine application, exhaust applications etc. The combination of adaptability, robust design, low cost, and high-temperature sensing capacity makes thermistors a preferred temperature sensing technology of automotive system designers. The thermistor market is thus estimated to hold the largest share of the temperature sensor market.
