Affected by the price rise and consumption market, automotive electronics is under pressure in the short term, and companies with high proportion of high-end model industry chain and vehicle business are preferred
At the beginning of the year, the new energy subsidy policy declined, superimposed the price rise of batteries and raw materials, and all vehicle enterprises generally raised the price, which put pressure on the demand for new energy vehicles in the short term. Most companies related to the automotive electronics industry chain have a high proportion of consumer electronics business. According to cinnorresearch statistics, affected by the epidemic and the Spring Festival holiday, the sales of smart phones in the Chinese market in February 2022 were about 23.48 million, down 20.5% year-on-year and 24.0% month on month. The short-term business of related enterprises was affected by the consumer electronics market. At present, due to the impact of price rise and consumption market, automotive electronics is under short-term pressure, and high-end model industry chain and vehicle business are preferred. Focus on the camera and lidar industrial chain companies equipped with high-end models, and their on-board business has entered the volume cycle since Q2.
