Autotech & Mobility Report 1H2025
Our latest Autotech & Mobility M&A report highlights a resurgence in deal activity as the rapid adoption of transformative automotive technologies accelerates worldwide. From electrification to the increasing integration of embedded software systems, the sector is once again on a growth trajectory following a slowdown in 1H2024.
In Europe, the battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) markets are expected to grow significantly, driven by the EU’s tightening CO2 emissions targets. While these regulations were set to become more stringent in early 2025, discussions around potential relief for European automakers could alter the pace of implementation. Meanwhile, heightened competition among OEMs and the rollout of smaller, more affordable electric vehicles across the region are expected to further drive EU market expansion.
