The usage-based insurance market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $48.38 billion in 2023 to $63.29 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.8%. Historical growth can be attributed to several factors, including increased vehicle ownership, rising incidents of vehicle theft, strong demand for passenger car sales, and widespread adoption of connected cars.

The usage-based insurance market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $175.27 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.0%. Forecasted growth is driven by the expanding automotive sector, increased demand for electric vehicles, rising vehicle safety concerns, and insurance companies' adoption of usage-based insurance for profitability. Key trends include focus on connected tech, smartphone-based telematics, telematics technology, partnerships, and self-installed telematics devices.

The anticipated growth of the usage-based insurance market is closely tied to the expansion of the automobile industry. The automotive sector, comprising various entities involved in the design, development, production, marketing, and sale of automobiles, is experiencing significant growth. Telematics-driven usage-based insurance has garnered interest among car owners, offering low premiums for low-risk driving and correspondingly higher premiums for high-risk driving. This incentivizes individuals to adjust their driving habits, leading to substantial reductions in insurance premiums. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit (The EIU), the global automotive sector is projected to achieve double-digit growth in 2021, with a 15% increase in new car sales and a 16% rise in commercial vehicle sales. Furthermore, electric vehicle sales are expected to surge from 2.5 million in 2020 to 3.4 million in 2021. Consequently, the growth of the automobile industry serves as a key driver for the usage-based insurance market.

A driving force behind the growth of the usage-based insurance market is the escalating concerns surrounding road traffic and vehicle safety. Telematics technology, the foundation of usage-based insurance, calculates premiums while providing real-time alerts and suggestions to drivers for enhanced safety. The global increase in road accidents has prompted a heightened focus on passenger safety. For instance, in 2021, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported 42,915 deaths in the US resulting from motor vehicle traffic crashes, marking a 10.5% increase from the 38,824 fatalities recorded in 2020. The growing apprehensions about vehicle safety are expected to drive the demand for usage-based insurance, further propelling market growth.

Companies in the usage-based insurance market are making substantial investments in connected technologies, which facilitate the connection of devices and systems via the internet. The focus on connected technologies is driven by the goal of providing enhanced products and services to customers. An illustrative example is the initiative by By Miles, a UK-based car insurance startup, in April 2022. By Miles launched the By Miles Connect platform, enabling connected car drivers to link their insurance policies directly from their vehicles. Utilizing the cloud platform installed in the vehicles, the platform gathers information about the distance driven to determine insurance pricing.

Partnerships and collaborations have become a prevalent trend among market players in the usage-based insurance sector. Companies are actively engaging in partnerships and collaborations to foster market growth and expand their consumer base.

This program allows customers to benefit from adjusted premiums based on vehicle mileage and driving behavior. State Farm customers with Ford or Lincoln vehicles can manage their overall vehicle ownership costs by reducing premiums through good driving behaviors or by improving their driving habits. Additionally, MSIG Thailand, an insurance company in Thailand, partnered with AIS Insurance Service, a Thailand-based digital technology company, in February 2021. Together, they launched Prakan Kubdee (Good Driving Insurance), a pay-as-you-drive insurance product in Thailand. This innovative product utilizes MSIG Car Informatics equipment, an IoT device developed by AIS, attached to the vehicle's onboard diagnostic port to calculate premiums based on real-time driving behavior. These partnerships exemplify the collaborative efforts within the usage-based insurance market to leverage technology for customer benefits and market expansion.
