The connected cars market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $80.04 billion in 2023 to $92.59 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to the expansion of emerging markets, a heightened demand for improved user comfort, safety, and convenience, and an increase in occurrences of vehicle theft within the connected cars industry.
The connected cars market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $165.72 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. Projected growth is fueled by global population rise, technological advancements (5G, AI), increased internet penetration, IoT, and growing demand for in-car Wi-Fi and smart mobility solutions. Key trends include 5G adoption, AI integration for enhanced features, cybersecurity systems installation, launch of cloud platforms, and design of hybrid in-vehicle infotainment and advanced driver-assistance systems.
Increased governmental initiatives aimed at the development of intelligent transportation systems will act as a driving force for the connected car market. Over the mentioned period, government initiatives were instrumental in fostering the growth of connected and autonomous cars, significantly impacting the connected car market. For example, in the UK, the government has allocated £40 million (US$50 million) toward schemes to initiate commercial autonomous vehicle (AV) services, including delivery vehicles and passenger shuttles. Furthermore, various trials have been conducted, accompanied by the introduction of new legislation aimed at encouraging the deployment of connected cars. By 2030, it is projected that the UK will yield an estimated £62 billion ($74.36 billion) in economic benefits from the integration of connected and autonomous vehicles.
The increasing prevalence of autonomous vehicles is anticipated to drive the expansion of the connected cars market in the forthcoming years. Autonomous vehicles, commonly known as self-driving or driverless cars, are equipped with advanced sensors, artificial intelligence (AI) systems, and other technologies enabling them to operate without direct human intervention. Connected cars serve as a pivotal infrastructure for the development and functionality of autonomous vehicles, facilitating data exchange, refining navigation, enhancing safety measures, and providing essential support for the effective and safe operation of self-driving cars on roads. As indicated in a 2023 report by the National Academies Press, self-driving vehicles are swiftly advancing toward commercialization in global markets. By 2035, an estimated 40% of new vehicles in the UK may possess self-driving capabilities. Thus, the proliferation of autonomous vehicles contributes to the growth of the connected cars market.
Connected car enterprises are increasingly focusing on the development of novel technologies such as autonomous vehicle map software to bolster their revenue streams and gain a competitive advantage in the market. For instance, in 2022, NVIDIA Corporation, an American technology company, introduced DRIVE Map, an autonomous vehicles map software. This software, designed as a multi-modal mapping engine, aims to expedite the deployment of autonomous Level-3 and Level-4 vehicles capable of functioning without human intervention. Following the acquisition of HD mapping startup DeepMap, NVIDIA swiftly progressed in developing DRIVE Map, integrating the acquired mapping technologies into its software. DRIVE Map amalgamates the precision of DeepMap survey mapping with AI-based crowdsourcing, offering enhanced mapping capabilities.
Leading entities in the connected cars market are actively investing in cutting-edge technologies such as Snapdragon Digital Chassis connected car solutions to stay ahead in the competitive landscape. The Snapdragon Digital Chassis represents an all-encompassing suite of cloud-connected automotive platforms catering to telematics, connectivity, computing, and driver assistance. For instance, in February 2022, Qualcomm, a US-based company specializing in connected car technologies, introduced novel Snapdragon Digital Chassis connected car technologies. These cloud-connected automotive platforms facilitate real-time communication between vehicles and the cloud, delivering vital data and insights to enhance safety, efficiency, and convenience for vehicle operations.
