Omdia: the <5-inch automotive AMOLED market set to grow quickly as car makers look for emotional and differentiated aesthetics

Omdia shared an interesting forecast, looking at small-sized automotive AMOLED displays (under 5 inches). Omdia estimates that 200,000 displays shipped in 2025, but the market will grow fast and reach 1.5 million units by 2030 (a total growth of 541%).

Omdia says that the general trend in the automotive screen is to replace traditional small control screens with large centralized displays. But there is also a growing demand for small-sized screens for emotional value, intelligent interaction, and differentiated cockpit aesthetics.

 

Automotive makers, that want to adopt such small displays, are mostly interested in OLED displays rather than LCDs, as these offer high PPI, fast response, high contrast, flexible and thinner form factors, low power-consumption for always-on functions, and true black performance to support animated UI, AI expressions, and detailed graphics.
