Autonomous vehicles <\/p>\n
Fully autonomous cars are estimated to be just five years away, depending on both technology and the development of a regulatory system. This will dramatically increase the market for the components required. <\/p>\n
For now, much of the growth comes from advanced driver assistance systems, such as automatic braking or adaptive cruise control. <\/p>\n
Market value: 19.5bn <\/p>\n
Last years pre-tax profit: 763m <\/p>\n
This semiconductor firm was tipped by all of the technology fund managers we spoke to. It makes components used in systems such as emergency braking and battery management. <\/p>\n
Hyunho Sohn, manager of the 2bn Fidelity Global Technology fund, said: Infineon exemplifies a company poised to gain from the move to electric and autonomous cars. It has a market-leading position and, as the technology going into each vehicle increases, it should experience increases in revenue and margin. <\/p>\n
Market value: 18.7bn <\/p>\n
Last year's pre-tax profit: 1.9bn <\/p>\n
Delphi integrates different technologies into packages that meet the rigorous standards of the automotive industry, Mr Sohn explained <\/p>\n
He said: \"The firm has strong relationships with the major car manufacturers, and is well positioned to profit from both the rapid proliferation in low-level systems, and the eventual roll-out of fully autonomous driving.\" <\/p>\n
