27、future strategies towards connected mobility.To provide insight into this complex landscape,we conducted a comprehensive survey among 165 industry professionals,all of whom are directly involved in their organisations connected vehicle programmes.The results of this survey are both revealing and rea
28、ssuring.Connected vehicles are no longer seen as an emerging trend but as a central pillar of automotive development.From the boardroom to the R&D labs,companies across the sector are fully aware that connectivity is a key part of their future.But while the destination is clear,the road to full conn
29、ectivity is packed with challenges that the industry must navigate carefully.The survey reveals a complex terrain with several potholes that must be carefully avoided.One of these potholes is related to regulations and compliance.Companies are grappling with a heap of laws and standards that vary by
30、 region,making it difficult to develop solutions that are both innovative and compliant on a global scale.Cyber security threats loom large as well.As vehicles become more like computers on wheels,theyre increasingly vulnerable to hacking and data breaches.This not only risks the safety of drivers b
31、ut also erodes trustan essential component for the widespread adoption of connected technologies.Automotive companies are investing heavily in cyber security measures,but the fast-evolving nature of cyber threats means this is a race that requires constant vigilance.The financial investment required
32、 for developing advanced connectivity features is another significant challenge.The costs can be staggering,especially when factoring in the need for continuous updates and the infrastructure to support them.This is a particular strain for smaller companies or those with tight margins,forcing these
33、companies to make tough decisions about where to allocate resources.Perhaps one of the more subtle challenges revealed by the survey is the struggle to clearly demonstrate the added value of connected vehicles to end customers.While the technology offers numerous benefitsfrom real-time traffic updat

43、acting with a car.Connectivity isnt just a technological shift;its the beginning of a new way to think about what it means to drive.we dive deep into the survey results,its clear right from the onset that automotive organisations worldwide are embracing vehicle connectivity with high enthusiasm and
44、adoption rates.This is reflected not only in the high levels of awareness surrounding company strategies for connected cars but also in the widespread recognition of its importance.Over 40%of respondents view connectivity as an essential component of their business strategy for the next one to two y
45、ears.Connectivity isnt just an option anymore;its core to how companies envision the future of automotive innovation and competitiveness.70%of survey respondents indicated a positive stance towards the integration of connected vehicles.This enthusiasm highlights their importance of connected vehicle
46、s in digital transformation,competitiveness,revenue generation,and enhancing customer experience.Yet,as with any industry shift,not everyone is moving at the same pace.A cautious minority-11%of participants are in a“wait and watch”mode,suggesting that while they are open to the idea,they are cautiou
47、s,preferring to see more developments before fully committing.Additionally,limited opposition remains,with about 12%expressing reservations,primarily due to customer demand,willingness to pay,and concerns about data privacy.This mix of forward momentum and hesitation reflects an industry grappling w
48、ith a change of this scale.When we look at the current landscape of adoption,its clear that while a fully connected future is within reach,were still in the early stages.Only a fraction of vehicles on the road today are truly“connected.”Nearly half of the respondents said that only 21-40%of vehicles
49、 manufactured/sold by their organisations are currently equipped with connected capabilities,while around 28%indicated an even lower adoption rate of just 0-20%.This places the majority of respondents in the early to moderate phases of adopting connected vehicle technologies,with only a small propor
50、tion(less than 10%)having reached a high level of integration(81-100%).The industry is in a transitional phase,where technology and infrastructure are ramping up to meet the increasing expectations.The journey towards full connectivity is very much alive,but its also unevensome brands are already ta
51、king bold steps forward,while others still have one foot firmly planted in the traditional automotive model.Responses from the industry survey suggest that while there is momentum towards this technology,the current adoption rates show that full integration across all vehicles is still some way off
52、for most organisations.Interestingly,the type of connectivity also tells a story of diverse strategies.The survey revealed that 42%of respondents are deploying a combination of Bluetooth and cellular technologies,leveraging Bluetooth for in-car communication and cellular to keep the vehicle connecte
53、d to the broader digital world.This preference for multiple connectivity options suggests that companies are looking for flexibility and the ability to offer both short-range and wide-area connectivity.Meanwhile,around 29%are opting for a cellular-only strategy,and some are experimenting with satell
54、ite connectivity for even broader coverage,with 19%using satellite in combination with cellular.However,satellite connectivity is not used as a standalone option,likely due to its higher cost,limited bandwidth,or the niche nature of its use cases,such as remote areas.Powered byProduced byNAVIGATING

106、N19Encouragingly,there is a strong appetite for better performance.A striking 67%of survey participants are willing to invest more to increase OTA success rates,highlighting the industrys commitment to overcoming these challenges.This eagerness reflects a shared vision of leveraging AI to enhance co
107、nnectivity,keeping vehicles not only functional but ahead of the curve in terms of innovation and safety.As the survey provides mixed results when it comes to OTA,the following recommendations provide a roadmap for organisations looking to improve their OTA success rates and unlock the full potentia
108、l of this technology.For those experiencing low OTA success rates,where only 0-25%of updates are completed successfully,the first step is to identify and address the root causes.This often involves a detailed review of the OTA infrastructure.By evaluating the reliability of the networks used for upd
109、ates and scrutinising the update mechanisms,organisations can pinpoint the specific areas that need improvement.Whether its a network bandwidth issue or a glitch in the update process itself,understanding the problem is the first step towards resolving it.For companies that are unsure of their succe
110、ss rates or are unaware of where issues may be occurring,it is vital to enhance monitoring and reporting systems.Investing in tools that provide clear visibility into OTA performance will allow organisations to quickly identify problems as they arise.These tools will not only highlight the technical
111、 issues but will also provide data on where and when updates fail,making it easier to address these challenges proactively.Interestingly,some organisations are already achieving high success rates of 76-100%.For those in this position,there is an opportunity to share best practices with companies fa
112、cing difficulties.The exchange of knowledge within the industry could help lift overall performance,allowing more organisations to achieve smoother,more reliable OTA updates.Collaboration and transparency in these areas could significantly elevate the standards across the board.For organisations in
113、the 26-50%success range,the path to improvement lies in continuous improvement.Ongoing optimisations in deployment strategies,network management,and update processes can help reduce the number of failed updates and push success rates higher.This is not a quick fix but an approach that requires dedic

116、ION,INNOVATION&STRATEGIC COLLABORATION20Beyond the technical recommendations,there is also a need to highlight the return on investment(ROI)for organisations willing to invest in improving their OTA infrastructure.For many,the initial costs may seem daunting,but the long-term benefitsfewer manual in
117、terventions,improved customer satisfaction,and cost savingscan more than justify the expense.Demonstrating the potential ROI can help decision-makers see the value of these improvements and encourage investment in better OTA processes.For organisations that are more hesitant to invest,focusing on th
118、e value of enhanced OTA capabilities is key.Often,presenting case studies or data that showcase the operational efficiencies and reduced downtime resulting from higher OTA success rates can help shift perspectives.Its about framing the investment not just as a cost but as a crucial step toward great
119、er efficiency and reliability.Offering flexible solutions can also bridge the gap between organisations that are eager to invest and those that are more cautious.By providing tiered or scalable options,organisations can choose the level of investment that best suits their budget and needs.This appro

130、COLLABORATION22Powered byProduced byThe evolving role of traditional automotive manufacturers was a key focus in the survey,revealing a shift in how these companies view their future.Nearly 47%of respondents believe that collaboration with tech companies will be essential for driving innovation.As v
131、ehicles become more software-defined(Software Defined Vehicles or SDVs)and reliant on complex digital solutions,partnerships with tech firms,particularly in areas such as software development,data analytics,and connectivity,are seen as crucial for staying competitive.This aligns with one of the key
132、recommendations from the survey:traditional automakers should actively foster partnerships with tech companies.By leveraging the expertise of these firms,manufacturers can more efficiently integrate advanced technologies into their vehicles.However,a notable 23%of respondents still believe that trad
133、itional automakers can dominate the market through their own innovation.These companies hold on to the belief that their legacy in engineering and in-house research and development(R&D)can drive future growth.The recommendation here is for manufacturers to continue investing in innovation to ensure
134、they remain competitive.Cutting-edge technologies will allow automakers to maintain their market presence while adapting to new consumer demands and technological advancements.Meanwhile,about 25%of respondents envision a shift from product to service-oriented models,focusing on customer experiences
135、rather than just selling cars.This includes the development of new business models,such as subscription services,connected features,and personalised experiences.The recommendation to explore and develop service-oriented business models is key here.Automakers can provide ongoing value to customers th
136、rough enhanced personalisation,offering tailored services that strengthen customer loyalty and satisfaction.Looking ahead,the survey participants identified several key opportunities in the connected vehicle ecosystem over the next two to five years.Approximately 30%highlighted partnerships with tec
137、h companies as the most promising path forward.By emphasising partnerships,traditional automakers can tap into new innovations more rapidly and remain agile in a fast-changing market.Moreover,the development of new mobility services such as ride-hailing and car-sharing was seen as a key opportunity
138、by 28.9%of respondents,as automakers seek to diversify their offerings beyond car manufacturing and explore more flexible,customer-centric solutions.Monetising vehicle data remains a significant opportunity,with around 25%of respondents recognising the potential for turning connected vehicle data in
139、to a revenue stream.Developing strategies to monetise vehicle data should remain a priority,even if it is less urgent compared to forming partnerships or developing mobility services.Manufacturers can capitalise on the wealth of information generated by vehicles,turning data into actionable insights
140、 for improving services and creating new revenue streams.Interestingly,the expansion into autonomous driving capabilities appeared to be a lower priority for many respondents,with only 5.4%ranking it as the most important opportunity.This is likely due to the technical and regulatory challenges that
141、 still hinder widespread adoption.However,manufacturers should not lose sight of these developments and focus on creating trusted value for their customers.Monitoring advancements in autonomous driving remains essential,but resources should be allocated based on the current priority of other opportu

150、 VEHICLES:INTEGRATION,INNOVATION&STRATEGIC COLLABORATION24CONCLUSIONS&KEY TAKEAWAYSThe journey towards fully connected vehicles is filled with both opportunities and significant obstacles.Achieving seamless connectivity requires addressing issues related to integration,cost transparency,and infrastr
151、ucture reliability to ensure the vision becomes a reality.Integrating connected technologies across different regions and models remains challenging due to fragmented standards,compatibility issues,and inconsistent coordination among stakeholders.To overcome these barriers,automakers,suppliers,and t
152、echnology partners must align their strategies to create a cohesive approach that supports efficient deployment and consistent adoption of connected features.This alignment is key to preventing a fragmented market where the benefits of connected vehicles are not evenly distributed.Cost management is
153、 another critical aspect that requires attention.The lack of a unified approach to handling connectivity costs has led to varying practices across the industry,resulting in potential confusion for consumers.Companies need to clearly communicate the value and cost implications of connected features t
154、o ensure that consumers see them as integral,value-enhancing parts of the vehicle,rather than optional add-ons.Over-the-air(OTA)updates hold immense promise for keeping vehicles current,secure,and optimised without the need for physical servicing.However,their inconsistent implementation has highlig
155、hted weaknesses in existing infrastructure,as well as challenges in ensuring compatibility across different systems and models.Investing in a more robust infrastructure and ensuring the reliability of the OTA update process are essential to fully leverage their potential.Additionally,automakers must
156、 focus on educating consumers about OTA updates to help them understand their benefits and importance.The role of traditional automakers is also evolving in the connected vehicle landscape.Partnerships with technology firms are becoming increasingly important for driving future innovation,especially
157、 as vehicles become more complex and reliant on software,AI,and advanced connectivity solutions.However,relying solely on external partnerships poses risks,such as loss of control over core technologies.Therefore,building internal capabilities in software development,AI,and data management is equall
158、y vital for long-term success and competitiveness.The automotive sector is at a crucial junctureensuring seamless connectivity requires a focused effort on overcoming integration challenges,clarifying cost structures,and building the infrastructure needed for a reliable and consistent connected expe
