It’s true that the auto market tends to be behind the times, but regulation is not the cause. That is much more of an issue in airplanes and aerospace in general. Cars still use micron level chips because: - They still do the job. - They have enough volume to keep those fabs open. - Since they end up becoming the only buyer (monopsony), they get cheap rates. So they pretty much run those fabs to the ground.
