The diagnostic equipment is linked to a platform that operates and stores data about the condition of the vehicle and is based on 3G, 4G, or Wi-Fi. Additionally, computer software analyzes the data to extract valuable insights through telematic solutions. This facilitates the real-time evaluation of vehicle performance, thereby reducing service time and averting additional malfunctions. Consequently, it is frequently implemented in commercial and passenger vehicles for health alert systems, automatic crash notifications, and vehicle location monitoring.

Apart from this, an emerging trend in automotive remote diagnostics involves the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). These state-of-the-art technologies enhance the accuracy and intricacy of problem detection and forecasting. With the advancement of AI and machine learning (ML) capabilities, automotive remote diagnostic systems are becoming more intelligent, demonstrating an adaptable capacity to learn from historical data. This trend in the market of using wireless diagnostics through AI and machine learning positions organizations at the vanguard of innovation through the provision of solutions that align with the requirements of modern automotive diagnostics and dynamically adjust to accommodate the increasingly intricate needs of the contemporary diagnostic sector.

Global Automotive Remote Diagnostics Market Segment Insights

The global automotive remote diagnostics market is segmented based on product type, connectivity, vehicle type and application.

Based on product type, the global automotive remote diagnostics market is divided into diagnostic equipment and software. The diagnostic equipment segment held the largest market share in 2018 as this segment has been witnessing significant growth in the demand for automotive remote diagnostics owing to the growing requirement for equipment in automotive remote diagnostics systems. The diagnostic equipment includes the electronic control unit, GPS modules, microcontrollers, LED, GSM antenna, GPS antenna, storage system, sensors and the CAN (Controller Area Network) car bus interface. 

Based on connectivity, the global automotive remote diagnostics market is segmented into 3G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. The Bluetooth segment is expected to hold the maximum market share, due to increasing demand for Bluetooth-connected automotive remote diagnostics. The Bluetooth connectivity includes the CAN-Bluetooth module, which communicates with the automobile electronic control unit (ECU) via the OBD interface (CAN bus) to read the information from the ECU. Then the information is converted into Bluetooth data and sent to a smartphone with Bluetooth function.

Based on vehicle type, the global automotive remote diagnostics market is segmented into passenger cars and commercial vehicles. The passenger car segment is expected to hold the maximum market share due to the increased use of such systems to meet the demand for convenience and safety features in passenger cars. The demand for passenger safety from individual users and government norms is driving the growth of this segment. Furthermore, a rise in the integration of IoT and a focus on reducing maintenance costs and downtime add to the market growth. For vehicle tracking, trip analysis remote diagnostic system is required. For electric passenger cars, there is a need for a remote diagnostic system to provide the status of the battery, range, and charging station to the owner. Such factors are expected to drive the global automotive remote diagnostics market during the forecast period.

Based on application, the global automotive remote diagnostics market is segmented into automatic crash notification, vehicle tracking, vehicle health alert, and roadside assistance. The roadside assistance segment is expected to hold the maximum market share, due to increased demand for convenience features while driving and the need to mitigate sudden breakdowns. Roadside assistance enables the responders to get real-time information directly from the vehicle and offer repairs, car towing and breakdown services. This application offers 24x7 emergency services, which are offered in case of a breakdown of a vehicle. Roadside assistance reduces the inconvenience caused due to any failure of a car by providing different services such as on-site assistance, flat tyres, towing, dead battery, and fuel delivery services.

Global Automotive Remote Diagnostics Market Region Insights

The global automotive remote diagnostics market is primarily studied across four prominent regions namely, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Rest of the World. Out of which, the North American region holds the major market share. The North American region is expected to be the dominating region in the automotive remote diagnostics market owing to the increasing adoption and implementation of connected services like connected car health monitoring, remote troubleshooting, and remote maintenance services, across vehicle applications. Moreover, the stringent regulations in the region governed by the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) are expected to play an important role in the demand for automotive remote diagnostics.

Europe held the second-largest market share in the global automotive remote diagnostics market. The rise in the growth of sales for luxury and commercial vehicles across the region is driving the demand for automotive remote diagnostics among OEMs and aftermarket players. Moreover, the manufacturers are investing in the Europe market due to concerns regarding vehicle performance in the region. For instance, in September 2016, at Automechanika Frankfurt, WABCO revealed a remote diagnostics pilot for commercial vehicles aimed to enhance safety, efficiency, and connectivity in the vehicles.
