This study seeks to evaluate the current usage of connected car applications such as digital assistants, online infotainment services, telematics services, navigation services, and data-enabled services in the United States. It also focusses on customer analysis bifurcation by vehicle segment, brand, and customer preference. The study seeks to highlight the most preferred and sought-after connected car applications and their use cases amongst customers across vehicle segments.
