Growth Opportunities and Use Cases for Blockchain in Automotive
Imminent Transformation as the Technology Promises to Fortify and Democratize Data while Bolstering Vehicle Validation
This report presents Frost & Sullivan’s analysis of blockchain use cases specific to the automotive industry in several regions, namely North America, Europe, China, India, Latin America, and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The study period is 2022–2023.
The blockchain revolution is transforming industries worldwide, and the automotive sector is no exception. Automotive companies experiment with trends such as decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) an non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to embrace a new generation of customers or car enthusiasts who like to engage with digital trends that involve the latest technologies.
This study analyzes disruptive use cases with limitless opportunities for blockchain in mobility. From fortifying and democratizing automotive data to bolstering vehicle validation, this cutting-edge technology is set to entice car enthusiasts and revolutionize the industry, paving the way for new and innovative business models. However, with these growth opportunities come implementation risks, trust challenges, skill gaps, and regulatory hurdles that limit the potential of blockchain for automotive enrichment.
