Manufacturers are developing several types of power supplies for electric vehicles to efficiently power internal components without affecting travel. Telematics has numerous viable opportunities in future mobile trends. The number of telematics applications will increase due to the employment of some government policies around the world for regulating electronic recording equipment and electronic facilities in the transportation systems. Strict government regulations require the reduction of CO2 emissions from vehicles to stop air pollution, which will help encourage the growth of the EV market.

For instance, supportive measures provided by the government for vehicle safety, such as the EU's e-cell and Russia's ERA-GLONASS measures will also stimulate growth.

Advanced technologies such as the Internet of Everything (IoE), Cellular Vehicle to Everything (C-V2X), and Vehicle to Everything (V2X) are bound to develop in the prospects of this market.

COVID-19 Pandemic to Slow Down Growth Backed by Shut Down of Manufacturing Facilities

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and blockades in many countries, the production of electric vehicles has been restricted. Therefore, the global automotive industry is facing a slowdown. The operations of key companies are affected by this pandemic. The majority of these companies have shut down their electric vehicle manufacturing amenities and shifted their focus on the making of personal protective equipment (PPE). In the next few years, the government's stimulus plan may help solve the economic crisis caused by COVID-19 in the electric vehicle market by investing heavily in the charging infrastructure.

Technological Advancements in Telematics Worldwide is a Current Trend

Since technologically advanced telematics will not reduce battery charging and improve vehicle efficiency, it is expected to promote market development. Advancements in telematics technology have made driving safer. It can not only locate the vehicle and its route, but also monitor the user's driving behavior, inspect the vehicle type, and notify to avoid collisions or whether it needs maintenance. Therefore, there is a vast demand for technologically advanced telematics for electric vehicles. 

• For instance, TSP and BMW have co-designed the Next Generation Threat Prevention (NGTP), an open-source framework to distribute end-to-end vehicle telematics.

DRIVING FACTORS

 Continuous Development of Batteries is Expected to Drive Growth

The increasing popularity of high-charge capacity batteries will propel the growth of electric vehicles. Subsequently, it will also aid the growth of the EV telematics market. Key automobile companies have invested heavily in research and development activities to develop batteries that can provide long-term power. The continued development of aluminum-ion batteries, metal-air batteries, and lithium-sulfur batteries is also expected to drive the market. The development of these batteries has helped reduce the weight of vehicles, improve their efficiency, and reduce emissions. Due to the latest development of batteries, they can efficiently power every electronic component. This helps the electric vehicle to run smoothly without swiftly discharging.

Strict Government Regulations for Reducing Pollution will Propel Growth

Regulatory agencies around the world are committed to reducing pollution caused by vehicles by imposing strict regulations on automakers to produce more environmentally-friendly vehicles. Therefore, the market for electric vehicle telematics is driven by the increasing restrictions on the usage of internal combustion engines by regulatory agencies. Currently, most vehicles run on internal combustion engines, which amount to a massive share of air pollution. In order to lessen pollution, ruling agencies around the world are encouraging people to buy low-emission or zero-emission cars by providing them with tax exemptions or tax reductions of a few percent and offering them various discounts when buying cars.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

 Increased Communication Leading to Privacy and Security Issues May Hinder Growth

With the development of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication technologies and unmanned vehicles, the number of cars that can intercommunicate is increasing. It is further surging the safety and privacy issues related to GPS location, user driving patterns, breaking methods, and speeds to process these data. The linked system can access information such as family details, medical details, routes are taken, and addresses. For instance, violation of data privacy is one of the foremost reasons that hamper end-users from using telematics solutions, specifically in countries/regions such as China and North America, where regulations are very stringent.

SEGMENTATION

By Type Analysis

Embedded Segment to Hold Largest Share Owing to Rising Usage of Cloud-based Technology
