  • The main drivers of this industry are the increasing demand for OHV data analysis, increased productivity and utilization, and decreased operational costs related to maintenance and repairs. The telematics industry has been developing quickly as a result of technological improvements. An entirely new experience in terms of bandwidth, faster data uploads, and feedback downloads are provided by upgrading to 4G and 5G networks, leading to more real-time data sets, real-time driver safety, fleet maintenance, and fleet efficiency. Market leaders provide robust location-based services (LBS) and telematics capabilities as part of an intuitive, all-inclusive OHV telematics solution.
  • The off-highway vehicle telematics market is driven by regulations in developed regions to equip off-highway vehicles with telematics for improved tracking of vehicle emissions, fuel emissions, driver hour regulation, and accident detection. Telematics solutions are becoming more popular in the heavy-duty, on-highway, and off-highway equipment industries. Major automakers are now including telematics systems as standard equipment on their vehicles, and this trend is spreading to additional models and equipment categories.
  • Real-time monitoring of off-highway vehicles and their drivers is made possible by telematics devices. Most fleet managers and off-road vehicle drivers view this as an invasion of privacy and are hesitant to deploy telematics devices in their fleets. Telematics systems gather and send data about, among other things, changes in speed and difficult driving habits, real-time tracking, and vehicle diagnostics. Furthermore, the worldwide off-high vehicle (OHV) telematics market growth is anticipated to be constrained shortly because of growing uncertainty among fleet operators regarding the legal implications associated with the installation of trackers.
  • The uncertainty of COVID-19 impacted all vehicle segments and has resulted in regional lockdowns, line closures, and the disintegration of transportation organizations. Furthermore, the financial vulnerability of the off-highway vehicle telematics market due to the pandemic is much higher than it was in previous outbreaks as the lockdown and the virus spread are forcing people to stay indoors. With the increasing number of vehicles owned by corporate fleets, the challenges and pressures to effectively manage the fleet in a challenging business environment are increasing, which could drive the OHV Telematics Market.

Off-Highway Vehicle Telematics Market Trends
