The growth of the global Connected Car Market is influenced by factors such as the increasing trend of in-vehicle connectivity solutions and government initiatives toward developments in intelligent transportation systems. Therefore, the Connected Car Market is expected to witness significant growth in the future.
Autopilot service in ICE service market projected to register highest CAGR
The introduction of autopilot would minimize driver intervention. As autonomous technology nears Level 3 & above, it would help achieve the automaker’s goals of commercializing fully autonomous vehicles for consumers by 2024. Rapid advancements and developments in autonomous vehicles are expected to spur the growth of the Connected Car Market. ZF unveiled its coASSIST level 2+ driving system in January 2020 in a price range of under USD 1,000. The company introduced its coASSIST Level 2+ semi-automated driving system on the 2020 Dongfeng Aeolus Yixuan, which was launched late in 2020. This marks the first launch globally of coASSIST, which delivers advanced safety and convenience functions. ZF also offers copilot, a scalable ADAS solution for level 2+ to level 4 driving systems, which it co-developed with NVIDIA. More affordable ADAS solutions would significantly boost the Connected Car Market in the coming years.
Integrated connectivity expected to register highest CAGR in global Connected Car Market
The integrated form of connected solutions enables the driver to access features and services safely with the help of integrated devices, such as smartphones. The Connected Car Market for the integrated form is expected to increase with the increase in the penetration of smartphones. Integrated solutions are likely to remain updated as their functionality depends on mobile technologies. The integrated connectivity segment is expected to grow at a significant rate in the future as cars can get connected through integrated devices with a negligible cost of hardware and subscription. Also, with everyone now carrying a smartphone and the growing demand for enhanced comfort and convenience, ad-hoc systems are being developed by software developing companies to allow user interactions with brought-in devices. An integrated approach allows the use of up-to-date technology and the finest customization to driver’s preferences. It is, however, difficult to provide a seamless user experience, and several driver distraction issues arise when an interaction is needed with handheld devices while driving. Moreover, the solution is less safe and reliable since automakers have no control over the applications used by customers. The most common widespread solutions for integrated systems are MirrorLink, Applink, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto.
The Asia Pacific expected to lead the globally Connected Car Market during the forecast period
One of the key drivers for the Asia Pacific market is the increased demand for infotainment and navigation services, particularly in China, Japan, India, and South Korea. The tech-savvy population in these countries demands a better and connected driving experience. The demand for connected cars in the Asia Pacific is driven significantly by the strong economic growth, growing population, and rapid urbanization. As safety regulations have been made in Japan and South Korea, the Connected Car Market in these countries is anticipated to increase in the coming years. Growing demand for premium and luxury cars with enhanced comfort and performance is expected to drive the adoption of connected car services. Thus, considering the above-mentioned factors, the Connected Car Market is expected to witness significant growth.
In 2018, China took various steps to boost the development of connected vehicles in the country, such as legislative changes for the adoption of national strategies and improvements in China’s connectivity-based technologies. Baidu and Alibaba, the biggest technology companies in China, are developing platforms for connected cars.
Japanese automotive companies are also inventing and implementing connected car services and solutions. In 2019, Airbiquity announced that it became a member of the Japan Automotive Software Platform and Architecture (JASPAR), an organization dedicated to advancing the standardization of in-vehicle software and networks to enhance development efficiency and reliability.
