The Commercial Telematics Market is Estimated To Witness High Growth Owing To Connected Vehicles Trend

The Commercial Telematics Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 54.96 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 16.% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Overview:
Commercial telematics refers to telecommunications, global positioning systems (GPS), and in-vehicle systems that allow companies to manage fleets and deliver real-time data on vehicle performance, location, drive behavior, and overall fleet operation. Commercial telematics provides advantages like monitoring of vehicles, controlling maintenance costs, decreasing accidents, improving insurance rates, and enhancing driver performance. It aims to improve fleet management, logistics, and enhance safety and security for commercial vehicles.

Market key trends:
The rising adoption of connected vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the commercial telematics market. Connected vehicles are equipped with embedded telematics systems that enable wireless connectivity between the vehicle and other devices. This allows for services like automatic crash notification, roadside assistance, stolen vehicle tracking, diagnosis, remote diagnostics, and telematics-based insurance. Connected vehicle services provide benefits like enhanced safety, vehicle health management, emergency response, and reduced downtime. According to ABI Research, by 2023, over 330 million passenger vehicles will be shipped with embedded connectivity. This increasing penetration of connected vehicles will boost demand for commercial telematics solutions.
