The automotive platooning system market is poised for growth driven by increasing automotive manufacturing. This rise is fueled by growing global demand for vehicles, technological advancements, and expanding markets, prompting higher production to meet both consumer demand and regulatory standards. Automotive platooning systems optimize vehicle movement and reduce logistics costs through coordinated convoy operations, enhancing efficiency in automotive manufacturing. For example, data from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association in May 2023 showed that North America's vehicle production rose from 13.59 million units in 2021 to 14.9 million units in 2022, marking a 9.6% increase year-over-year. This underscores how rising automotive manufacturing is propelling growth in the automotive platooning system market.

Leading companies in the automotive platooning system market are focusing on developing innovative technological solutions to enhance safety and efficiency. One such innovation is the vehicle safety platform, which integrates various technologies and features to prevent accidents and mitigate collision severity. For instance, Vodafone Group Plc, a UK-based telecommunications company, launched the Safer Transport for Europe Platform (STEP) in September 2023. This cloud-based platform, leveraging open industry standards, facilitates the sharing of safety information and hazard warnings among road users, transport authorities, and third-party apps and in-vehicle navigation systems. The upgraded STEP platform supports cooperative platooning, including with autonomous vehicles, enabling vehicles to manage spacing and speed between them autonomously. Such technology aids in reducing collisions, traffic congestion, and fuel consumption.

An automotive platooning system is a technology that enables multiple vehicles to travel closely together in a convoy, with the lead vehicle controlling speed and direction while the following vehicles autonomously maintain a set distance, speed, and alignment. This system is designed to enhance fuel efficiency, alleviate traffic congestion, and improve road safety.

The primary types of automotive platooning systems include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-everything (V2X). Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication involves direct data exchange between vehicles, facilitated by both hardware and software components. Functionalities include adaptive cruise control (ACC) and cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC). These systems find applications across passenger vehicles, light-duty commercial vehicles, and heavy-duty commercial vehicles, serving various end-users such as original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and the aftermarket.
