Bottom line

As electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular, demand for autonomous cars is expected to rise. Tesla is already leading the market, and more companies could enter the space of self-driving EVs.

If this happens, Mobileye could benefit from it as it is involved in the development of chips and software required to work with sensors in vehicles. Notably, sensors are required to enable vehicles to handle more driving functions.
