Automotive Software Platforms
The IHS Markit Connected Car Service provides insight, context, data, and analytics for rapidly growing and evolving automotive connectivity both from a hardware and software perspective. Users can quickly access key insights from market developments, put context around events and technological trends, dive into deep data and forecasts, and seamlessly drive analytics to support their most challenging decisions.
Hardware components in the car have become more software-driven, and many automakers are openly repositioning themselves as software-based and services-based companies, by providing capabilities such as smartphone-centric applications, consumer-centric infotainment operating systems, and virtual personal assistants (VPAs) in the car.
This report provides a basic understanding of these primary automotive software platforms, as well as an in-depth demand outlook for these subject areas, which includes an analysis of the main players and market drivers on the global and regional levels. It also includes detailed forecasts at an OEM sales parent level.
