Table of Contents Related Research

In April 2011 ABI Research conducted a multi-country telematics survey completed by 1500 respondents in the US, UK, France, Germany, Japan, and China. Questions covered awareness and interest levels in connected car service categories and individual applications, usage patterns, satisfaction, willingness to pay, form factors, user interfaces and safety issues. One of the major findings coming out of the survey was the high awareness about and interest in safety and security services as opposed to infotainment, convenience and cost-saving features. At the same time more than 80% of non-users have either never heard about telematics or if they have, do not know much about it, illustrating that awareness about connected car services is still very low, even in countries where connected car solutions have been offered for many years. The automotive industry is facing a huge challenge explaining the benefits offered by this technology.
