Samsung Powers BMW iX3: Global EV Market Shifts

Samsung supplies Exynos chips for BMW's 2025 iX3 EV, boosting its auto semiconductor role amid U.S. auto sales rising 2.4% to 16.2M units and Lucid's 55% delivery growth to 15,841 vehicles. Europe's SUV boom (59% share) sees Dacia Sandero lead sales, while autonomy advances from Mercedes and Lucid-Uber signal SDV shifts.
