According to study, “United Kingdom Connected Vehicle
Market (2018-2023)” some of the major
companies that are currently working in the United Kingdom connected vehicle
market are Airbiquity Inc, Continental AG, Aptiv PLC, Robert Bosch GmbH, Autoliv,
Wireless Car, TomTom, Denso, ZF Friedrichshafen, NXP Semiconductors.
The automotive sector is a key
pillar of the UK economy employing large number of people. The connected
vehicle use communication techniques between infrastructure and vehicles. They
are efficient, and allow safer traffic flows with primarily used for
pedestrians, environment, drivers and economy. The connectivity solutions in
vehicles develop solutions for vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-device, and
vehicle-to-infrastructure communication by using different systems/hardware,
such as modem, SIM, intelligence/applications and user interface. Connected
vehicles provide high range of on-board vehicle equipment and solutions which
provides alerts to unsafe situations preventing mishappening.
The demand connected vehicle is
mainly risingdue to anincreasing need for connectivity among the customers, technological
& infrastructure advancements, reducing energy consumption, incorporation
of internet of things (IoT) based technologies. To support the technological
development the vehicle makers are adopting hybrid connectivity approach, and
havelaunched integration solutions through smartphones to provide access to
internet radio, music-streaming and social networking.
Apart from the advantages some of
the main challenges associated with the connected vehicle market include absence
of simplicity on the standards, extended supply chains, concerns regarding the

themselves to fit the connected value chain. The connected vehicles market not
only limits vehicle manufacturers but comprise diverse mix of traditional and
non-traditional players offering embedded, tethered and aftermarket solutions,
data and software services.
In 2015, the UK government formed Code
of practice for testing automated vehicle technologies, a guidance document on
organizing tests for automated vehicle technologies. Additionally government
have also established a new joint policy unit, the Centre for Connected and
Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) to develop connected and autonomous vehicles in the UK,
and supporting the country’s leadership in this sector. The Department of
Transporthas issued a Code of Practice before autonomous vehicle technology
becomes available to the public, legislation to be amended to address, among the
other considerations, liability, responsibility, driver licensing and vehicle
construction criteria.
Moreover, the connected vehicle
ecosystem features diverse mix of traditional and non-traditional players
offering embedded solutions, aftermarket hardware, data and software services. The
industry is not only witnessing investments from large vehicle manufacturers
and incumbent OEMs, however also from various other sectors such as software, telecom,
insurance, and tech companies.
The U.K. government is making the
nation a self-driving research hub. The UK Autodrive, a publicly funded
consortium includes Ford, Jaguar Land Rover, and TATA Motors, announced a new
set of trials and a focus on self-driving cars which promptly share information
and focus on city infrastructure development. It is expected that the United Kingdom
connected vehicle market will be register a double digit growth over the
