COVID-19 IMPACT

"COVID-19 Pandemic has Influenced the Market Growth Globally"

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the Auto Dealer Software market experiencing higher/lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

To stop the global COVID-19 pandemic from spreading, people are taking social isolation precautions like self-isolation, quarantining, or working from home. The downturn of the economy will affect all sectors given that the present financial crisis is being likened to the financial crisis of 2008. The IT sector, however, is expected to experience less regrowth than other sectors because work-from-home laws have kept it operating. Additionally, auto dealers would like to hasten the pandemic-affected market growth. This would increase consumer demand for auto dealer software.

LATEST TRENDS

"Automotive software market will benefit from the future potential of 5G and AI"

The quick shift in architectures and design requirements has an effect on the need for software. The user experience of automobile software requires wireless connectivity. Numerous telecom firms are focusing on the development of 5G as a solution to increase the security and efficiency of car software. A high-tech connectivity platform is required because cars are developing into network-aware, software-defined, and extremely connected data-sending vehicles. By realizing, both these implications and the issues they provide for the automotive industry, the adoption of connected cars can be accelerated. Autonomous vehicles and automotive software would tremendously benefit from 5G due to their capacity to connect quickly. As an illustration, the EU and South Korea have decided to work together to create 5G, investing respectively USD 782 million and USD 1.5 billion in regional 5G projects. The 5GIC 5G research facility in the United Kingdom has been given approval for funding in the amount of USD 78 million.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Market for automotive software will grow as linked car services become more widely used"

The connected car ecosystem's stakeholders now have more chances to generate income thanks to the rising number of connected vehicles. To take advantage of the opportunity to make money, several non-automotive participants have rushed into the race of linked automobiles and autonomous driving. Modern vehicles are not mechanically propelled machines. They currently make up about 40% of electronic information, and over 60% is predicted for them in the upcoming decades. The majority of the electronic content will include domain controllers, consolidated ECUs, HMIs, and AI for cutting-edge automotive applications like ADAS, telematics, engine management systems, etc. For these applications to operate correctly, a considerable amount of code must be written. These applications are becoming more complex day by day as automobiles get more technologically sophisticated. As a result, systems require more coding to be coded, which raises the demand for embedded software. Thus, the market for automotive software is being driven by the rising number of connected vehicles.

"Utilizing mobile platforms to grow the market"

In recent years, the increase in mobile usage has multiplied. Software firms are investing in creating a mobile application due to the simplicity of use and flexibility afforded by mobile platforms. Additionally, same trend has been seen in the auto dealer software sector. Renault introduced new mobile software in 2017 to increase consumer interaction. Additionally, this app connects directly to Renault Connect, the company's software for auto dealers, which integrates the dealers into the process. The global dealer management system market is expanding as a result of expanding developments in the automobile industry and expanding integration of various management systems. One of the key developments that is likely to support market growth during the forecast period is the introduction of autonomous vehicles.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Lack of interconnected infrastructure is a major barrier to market expansion "

The expansion of the automotive software sector is being hindered by the expensive infrastructure needed for 5G and wireless communication. The significant investment needed to create the essential cloud, IoT, and data analytics software interaction platforms will continue to be a major concern. For connected cars and ADAS solutions to update their software and add new content, quick, flexible, and simple methods are needed. The challenge has become more obvious as upgrades demand speedy connectivity options, which developing countries are still struggling to develop. Over-the-air software updates get priority over all other types of upgrades. Additionally, without adequate connectivity solutions, manufacturers are introducing new apps and services, ranging from traffic alert notifications to emergency calling services.
