Visteon, a global leader in automotive cockpit electronics and connected car technologies, has commenced in-house manufacturing of its next-generation high-resolution Analog and Digital Camera Systems, along with Display Backlight Units (BLU), at its Chennai facility. This development marks a major milestone in Visteon’s efforts to enhance driving safety and elevate in-vehicle technology.
The newly established production lines will manufacture cameras ranging from 1.3 MP to 8 MP HD resolution—delivering much sharper visuals than conventional automotive cameras. Engineered to complement high-definition in-car displays, these cameras are also designed for seamless integration with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), enabling enhanced safety, precision parking, and improved vehicle navigation.
“India plays a critical role in our vertical integration strategy,” said Sachin Lawande, President and CEO of Visteon. “Localizing production of camera systems and backlight units strengthens our ability to scale, innovate, and deliver next-generation cockpit technologies more efficiently to global markets.”
By localizing manufacturing, Visteon is not only enhancing product quality and accelerating innovation but also reinforcing India’s role as a key technology and manufacturing hub. This investment strengthens the company’s ability to respond rapidly to regional market demands while supporting India’s growth in high-tech automotive production.
This expansion compliments Visteon’s existing display manufacturing in India, creating a more cohesive, vertically integrated production ecosystem for next-generation cockpit solutions. By aligning key stages of its operations – from display assembly to core component manufacturing – Visteon is positioned to accelerate product development, continue ensuring consistent quality, and better meet the evolving needs of Indian and global car makers.
