Top Impacting Factors
Rise in number of vehicle sales is one of the major factors that drives the growth of the ASEAN car GPS navigation systems market. Moreover, the integration of smartphones with in-vehicle systems (IVS) further fuels the ASEAN car GPS navigation systems market growth. In addition, increase in demand for traffic control in turn propel the market. However, the presence of substitutes to aftermarket navigation systems is the major factor that hinders the growth of the ASEAN car GPS navigation systems market.
Rise in number of car productions and sales in ASEAN countries
The ASEAN developing economies majorly influence the car GPS navigation system market. For instance, ASEAN car sales in 2017 was around 3.33 million units, which drives the adoption of GPS navigation systems and thus, fuels the growth of the market. Rise in national incomes has led to the growth of the ASEAN car market and the same trend is expected to continue in the upcoming years. Around 4 million units of cars are expected to be sold by 2020. In addition, as per data provided by the ASEAN Automotive Federation (AAF), new car sales in the ASEAN region increased by 5% from 2016 to 2017 reaching to 3.33 million units, which is about two-thirds of the Japanese car market.
High penetration of wireless communication technology and advanced connectivity infrastructure
Increase in adoption of wireless communication technologies has been the major factor for the market in Southeast Asia. The wireless communication technology includes various IT devices such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, and cellular networks (GSM, UMTS, and LTE). Using these technologies, the owner of these vehicles have been widely successful in their fleet management as well. The advanced connectivity infrastructure has been posing high growth opportunities for the market. For instance, dynamic real-time geoinformation that is provided helps users to understand the exact road directions, traffic conditions, and other details. In addition, features such as voice command recognition is opportunistic for the ASEAN car GPS navigation systems market.
Emergence of alternatives
Although the GPS navigation systems have played significant role in different applications such as traffic control, emerging substitutes majorly hinder the ASEAN car GPS navigation systems market growth. For instance, several apps such as AT&T’s Navigator app, Verizon’s VZ navigator, and CoPilot, are available at low cost and provide turn-by-turn voice and onscreen driving directions. These apps feature real-time traffic monitoring and also help its users to locate ATMs, restaurants, and Wi-Fi hotspots along the route. Emergence of these apps with almost similar features and relatively low prices limit the adoption of the car GPS navigation systems.
