The automotive telematics market growth will be deciding on the basis of forecast & active steps taken by an industry manufacturer from the year 2018 to 2026.

Telematics systems are mainly adopted by automobile insurance companies, fleet management companies, and others to monitor location and behavior of a vehicle. Vehicle telematics solution consists of 3 fundamental parameters i.e. Telematics Control Unit (TCU), telematics cloud server, and the front end- web app and mobile App.

The global automotive telematics market refers to the services and solutions that are adopted for monitoring and controlling a vehicle through a telecommunication device. Moreover, the advent of telematics solutions has supported the growing popularity of ride sharing services for daily transits. Telematics technology enables both ride-sharing companies and passengers to keep a closer tab on drivers, manage payments based on the ride maps, and monitor vehicle movement through smartphones in a seamless and secure manner.

With increase in demand for connectivity and fleet management solutions, smart devices and applications have become the go-to tools for fleet operators. Tracking assets, driver monitoring, fleet optimization, and other related issues are addressed by cloud management solutions. Furthermore, cloud enables backup and recovery of data and applications on a secondary storage or infrastructure. 

Many organizations are deploying different cloud models to overcome the drawbacks of traditional fleet management solutions. For instance, apart from tracking Softweb’s cloud-based solution powered by big data analytics, AI, IoT, and other emerging technologies, smart fleet management-based solutions analyze every information of fleet such as route planning, fuel analytics, and driving patterns to improve productivity and fuel savings. This study presents analytical depiction of the automotive telematics market analysis along with the current trends and future estimations to depict the imminent investment pockets.

Moreover, AI and machine learning capabilities facilitate autonomous dispatching & routing and empowers fleet managers to predict vehicle health and driving habits based on a vehicle’s utilization with lower maintenance requirements and cost-effectiveness. All these factors together significantly contribute toward the growth of the automotive telematics industry. The current automotive telematics market size is quantitatively analyzed from 2018 to 2026 to benchmark the financial competency.

Rise in adoption of web-based services and availability of advanced communication technology provide immense growth opportunities for fleet management businesses. Major technologies used in the market include telematics, GPS tracking system, M2M communication, and others. The development in telematics and M2M devices shipment suggests that with strong communication network, fleet management activities can be easily handled, and have a quick access & response mechanism. Moreover, several solutions offered in the automotive telematics market collect, manage, explore, interpret, and analyze the driving data of a particular driver. Such smart fleet management solutions generate a huge volume of data, providing an opportunity for superior consumer experience and establishing new business avenues in autonomous driving.
