Market Research Future (MRFR) states that the global market of acoustic vehicle alerting systems (AVAS) is expected to register a CAGR of about 12% over the evaluation period of 2019–2025. The rising need to upgrade the horn system of electric vehicles (EVs), as their feeble noise may not send strong alert message to cyclist, pedestrians, and geriatric people, is noted to escalate the installation of AVAS in EVs. This is a major factor that is likely to promote the global AVAS market growth.
