This Frost & Sullivan study offers insight into European OEMs’ over-the-air (OTA) update (firmware-over-the-air [FOTA]/software-over-the-air [SOTA]) strategies. Frost & Sullivan segments OTA updates into 12 categories: Powertrain, Infotainment Services, Connected Services, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems/Autonomous Driving (ADAS/AD), Chassis, Remote Services, Bug Fixes, User Manuals, Health, Wellness, and Well-being (HWW), Passive Safety, Active Safety, and Comfort/Convenience.
In analyzing leading European OEMs adopting OTA updates, the study breaks down the number of OTA updates each company offers per category. It profiles OEMs such as BMW, Volkswagen Group, Jaguar Land Rover, and Volvo Group for their OTA capabilities, with a detailed outline of their service and subsegment penetration for each OTA update type.
The study also examines OTA update market growth drivers and restraints and highlights several use cases for automakers, such as Stellantis and Renault. Based on these findings, Frost & Sullivan identifies 3 growth opportunities for industry participants to capture business growth.
