Innovation in sensor technology, connectivity, and positioning has paved the way for truly intelligent vehicles to become a reality.

The connected vehicle brings many advantages, not only to drivers and passengers but also beyond that with enhancements in safety, efficiency, sustainability, and more.

By 2025 it is estimated that there will be 200 million connected vehicles on the road, almost double the figure five years previous. Enabled by innovation and cost reductions in sensors, connectivity, and positioning technology, the trend is likely to continue as the technology continues to evolve.
