The key factor propelling the automotive connectivity market is the growing prevalence of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles. Governments in many different countries also prioritize making certain ADAS and safety elements mandatory. In both the United States and Europe, several ADAS features are required by law.
For instance, in the European Union (EU), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) has been required in automobiles. since 2004, and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) has been required since 2014. Since 2015, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) has been required equipment for all commercial vehicles sold in the European Union (EU). Furthermore, all new cars sold in the EU must include automotive connectivity capabilities such as e-call as of April 2018.
Demand Driven by Rising ADAS Adoption Rates
The expansion of the automotive connectivity market is anticipated to be fueled by the increasing popularity of ADAS. The widespread incorporation of ADAS in vehicles is anticipated to lessen traffic deaths owing to the widespread use of software algorithms, sensors, cameras, processors, and other innovative technologies for mapping road obstructions. For instance, in 2018, the global toll from traffic accidents reached 1.35 million, as reported by the World Health Organization's (WHO) Road Safety report.
Fears for the safety and security of passengers have prompted governments to impose strict safety rules on the auto industry, mandating the inclusion of ADAS systems in all new vehicles. For instance, in 2013, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the United States mandated that all vehicle classes be equipped with Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS).
Just as one of the most important aspects of linked vehicles, an e-call system, will be required in all new vehicles starting in April 2018, as mandated by the European Commission (EC) in 2015.
Inadequate facilities for Internet-connected vehicles to perform effectively.
Roadside infrastructure hinders the transmission of data between vehicles and the cloud. Information technology (IT) highway development is lagging behind more developed economies in countries like Mexico, Brazil, and India. Presently, only densely populated places may use 3G and 4G-LTE networks. Despite the presence of many 3PLs in rural and semi-urban areas, poor infrastructure means that they are unable to fully serve their customers.
Due to this, the automotive connectivity industry in developing regions may be stunted by a lack of information technology and communication infrastructure as well as a lag in government norms. In addition, as service providers, companies in the telecom industry may be subject to laws governing telecom in their respective countries, such as those governing lawful intercept and the establishment of a local presence.
We need to examine and regulate the interoperability of the various platforms and the international use cases that will arise from this. The issue of net neutrality, in which internet service providers give some data transmission priority, is also brought up by the widespread use of data networks.
Principal Consultant
During the forecast period, it is expected that the 5G sector will constitute the largest portion of the market. Multiple telecommunications firms are working on next-generation 5G networks to improve the connectivity between vehicles and other devices. The 5G Automotive Association estimates that with a flawless 5G network, over 60% of traffic accidents might be prevented.
Examples include a USD 1.5 Billion joint investment in a 5G network development partnership between South Korea and the EU for domestic initiatives. We anticipate that this will help reduce the alarming increase in traffic accidents.
Over the projected period, the satellite industry is anticipated to show the highest growth rate. Cellular and Wi-Fi networks are only stable enough in densely populated urban areas to support linked autos. A connected car is completely cut off from the network when it leaves the range of a mobile tower, which could be quite dangerous for passengers.
Many Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), satellite operators, and mobile operators are working to create hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks to circumvent this issue and provide constant connectivity. So, the growth of the connected-vehicle market would be fuelled by the need for faster satellite and 5G connections.
The automotive connectivity industry in the United States is growing rapidly, and one reason is the increased emphasis on safety and security OEMs, consumers, and governments have all emphasized increasing car security and safety in recent years. Technologies like automated braking and lane-keeping aids have made driving much safer in recent years. Traffic accidents are reduced because of these technologies' impact on violators 'behavior.
Crash imminence braking (CIB), dynamic brake support (DBS), and other promising technologies like pedestrian automatic emergency braking (PAEB) are just a few examples of what the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the USA Department of Transportation recommends for improving road safety.
To increase the penetration of the USA automotive connectivity market in the next years, the NHTSA collaborates with industry partners and safety advocates to raise consumer awareness regarding the use of such technology for passenger safety.
Germany has emerged as Europe's central pillar for the soaring demand for internet-connected vehicles.
