A recent global survey of over 14,000 consumers across five continents indicates that car owners are now looking for new models with these technologies integrated as standard. Almost 40% of those questioned said that in-car technology is their first and foremost consideration when purchasing a new car, above the driving performance of the vehicle.

Car buyers now have a plethora of vehicle additions available to them, such as web-connected in-car entertainment and information, and real-time digital diagnostics. What’s more, consumers are expressing a desire for such innovations. 61% of UK respondents answering questions from the global survey said they would like to have a vehicle black box that collects data about their driving, which could bring down their insurance premiums. However, currently only 5% use such a device. Similarly, two-thirds suggested they’d like to use full automatic parking assistance systems but only 10% currently do.

Smart devices and integrated connected services provide a wide range of services for vehicle owners – in terms of entertainment, safety, extending car life cycles and cutting costs of repair, maintenance and insurance.

Adoption of these innovations will increasingly give consumers a more personalised driving experience that is closely tailored to their individual needs. This will in turn help automotive businesses learn more about their customers and inform their long-term strategies.
