Connected, Software-Defined and Autonomous Vehicle Market Research Reports

About our Connected and Autonomous Vehicles coverage

Vehicles now ship with more code than many enterprise systems, and the business model is following. Connected services, over-the-air updates and feature subscriptions turn a one-time sale into a recurring revenue line, and we size those revenue pools separately from the hardware that enables them.

Driver assistance and autonomy are covered by stage of deployment. Regulatory mandates such as emergency braking, eCall and driver monitoring create near-certain volume, while robotaxis and autonomous trucking remain tied to pilot programmes and permits in a handful of cities and corridors. We keep the two apart.

Software-defined vehicle reports cover zonal electrical architecture, middleware, virtual ECUs and digital twins by country, so suppliers can see where architecture change is reaching production and where it is still at the design stage.

Who uses this research

Vehicle manufacturers and their software units, tier one electronics suppliers, chip and cloud companies, telematics service providers, and investors in automotive software.

Every report is delivered with the underlying data tables, a defined methodology note and analyst access, so the assumptions can be interrogated rather than accepted. If the exact scope you need is not published here, we build commissioned studies on the same framework.
