Intelligent Transportation System Market : Industry Analysis And Detailed Profiles Of Top Industry Players

Global Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) comprise a large number of domestic and foreign manufacturers. The industry looks fragmented and there is no clear leader dominating the overall ITS market. Siemens, Hitachi, TomTom N.V., and Garmin International are some of the renowned international players in the global intelligent transportation systems market.

Major investments in R&D as well as innovation is one of the most successful strategies adopted by leading players in this market. A case in point would be Siemens. The company, in collaboration with the government of Germany, is working on the Digital Autobahn Test Field project, the key feature of which will be the country’s first intelligent bridge. The bridge is scheduled to open in Nuremberg in October 2016.


The revenue of the global intelligent transportation systems market stood at US$20.22 bn in 2015 and the market is expected to reach USD 57.44 billion by the end of the forecast period, developing at a CAGR of 12.7% during the forecast period.

North America to Witness Marginal Loss in Market Share by 2024

On the basis of type, advanced transportation management systems accounted for the leading share of 41.0% in 2015, fueled by the rising demand for advanced traffic management and control solutions to maintain the flow of traffic in urban as well as inter-urban networks. Public transportation systems, on the other hand, is likely to offer promising opportunities through 2024, exhibiting a strong CAGR of 12.9%.


Based on application, ITSs for traffic management accounted for the dominant share in 2015 and is projected to retain its leading position throughout the forecast period. The automotive telematics segment is anticipated to witness strong growth in the after-market with vehicle owners installing these systems at an increasing rate.

By geography, North America accounted for a leading share of 41.2% in 2015. “Although the region is projected to lose market share by the end of the forecast period, it is expected to retain its dominance through the coming years,” the TMR analyst predicts.


Adoption of ITS Fueled by Need to Tackle Traffic Issues

Transport forms the backbone of any country’s social as well as economic development. However, traffic congestion is a major issue in terms of fuel consumption, travel time, and cost. Intelligent transportation systems have emerged as a key solution to combat these hurdles, which is a prominent factor driving its adoption.

“Various ITS associations across the world have found that advanced traffic management systems minimize waiting times at a signal by 20%-30% and travel time by at least 25%,” the author of the study reports. This works in favor of the overall ITS market.

The growing need to improve road safety is also a major factor driving the intelligent transportation system market. “Road accidents are one of the leading causes of death and account for over 2% of all global deaths. These accidents also cost an estimated US$520 bn per year worldwide,” the TMR analyst finds. Countries are therefore focused on reducing the number of road accidents by deploying advanced traffic management systems, which is propelling the global ITS market.


In contrast, the economic slowdown in several countries and the lack of interoperability between ITSs and infrastructure limits the widespread adoption of intelligent transportation systems.

Wi-Fi Chipset Market Poised for an Explosive Growth in the Near Future

Wi-Fi is a technology based on the IEEE 802.11 standard which connects two or more devices using wireless communication within a limited area such as office building, school, home, or computer laboratory. Usage of Wi-Fi has increased significantly in residential and commercial places since the last several years due to the ease of its installation and operation. Currently, a number of devices including video-game consoles, digital cameras, digital audio players, digital printers, smart TVs, tablets, phones, and personal computers are available with built-in Wi-Fi technology. These devices can connect to the internet with the help of wireless access point or wireless LAN (Local Area Network) and can provide control and monitoring of a system from a remote location. Wi-Fi chipsets usually operate in 2.4 gigahertz UHF (Ultra High Frequency) band and 5.8 gigahertz SHF (Super high frequency) band. Wi-Fi Alliance, comprising more than 375 organizations worldwide, establishes and enforces W...

Keyless Entry System Market: Industry Outlook, Growth Prospects and Key Opportunities

Keyless entry system is technology that provides physical access to an individual inside any premises or automotive without the use of a mechanical key for performing the locking and unlocking operation. Keyless entry system provides an enhanced convenience and security to the users. In case of a keyless entry system, the users get secure and authorized access to an automotive or premise with the use of various external devices or gesture such as a keyless fob or a smart card, or by the use of their own voice, fingerprints or facial recognition among others. Owing to rapidly increasing adoption of smart technologies across various application sectors, keyless entry systems is increasingly installed among users especially in the transportation sector, government sector, banking financial services and insurance (BFSI) sectors and hospitality industry among others. The global Keyless Entry System market is anticipated to experience a robust growth during the forecast period from 2017 to...

Automotive Leaf Spring Suspension Market - Business Strategies and Recent Development

Key priorities of automotive manufacturers include increasing operational performance, improving drivability, and ensuring the safe transport of cargo and passengers. Increasing acceptance of hybrid and electric vehicles and integration of smart and connected technologies have prompted manufacturers to focus on improving the power and drivetrain systems such as clutch, transmission, propeller shaft, axle, and leaf springs. Leaf springs are located between the wheels and the body of the vehicle. When the wheel passes over a bump, it rises and deflects the spring; thereby, storing the energy in the spring. On releasing, due to the elasticity of the spring, it rebounds thereby expanding the stored energy. Increase in demand for automobiles globally, is driving the leaf spring market. The leaf springs are primarily used in light, medium, and heavy-duty commercial vehicles such as pick-up trucks and vans. Some passenger car manufacturers rely on use of leaf spring technology for bet...
