Automatic E-Call System Market, Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis and Forecast, 2024-2032
Global Automatic E-Call System Market was valued at USD 1.2 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 11% from 2024 to 2032. As vehicles become more connected and software capabilities advance, the technology behind eCall systems is evolving in tandem.
Introduced in 2015, the eCall automatic emergency call system became mandatory for all new cars sold in the European Union (EU) in 2018. Currently, eCall systems utilize 2G/3G circuit-switched cellular networks. However, the European Commission is actively working to update eCall standards and legislation, transitioning the system to 4G and 5G networks. To accommodate these advancements, the automotive industry will require NGeCall test solutions for their eCall modules. Looking ahead, a new eCall standard from China is anticipated to mandate the use of 4G/5G packet-switched cellular networks.
The automatic E-Call system industry is classified into triggering mode, installation, vehicle, and region.
The market is segmented by triggering mode into automatic and manual e-call systems. In 2023, the automotive e-call segment surpassed USD 1 billion in value. This growth is largely attributed to the rising adoption of connected vehicle technologies and an increasing emphasis on safety features. Automatic e-call systems are gaining traction for their capability to swiftly connect to emergency services post-crash, thereby potentially saving lives.
Installation-wise, the market is divided into third-party service (TPS) e-call and standard e-call systems. The standard eCall segment is projected to capture over 65% market share in 2023. Mandated by the EU, these systems dial emergency number 112, relay vital information like vehicle location and incident nature and aim to bolster road safety through improved response times.
Europe led the global automotive e-call system market with a commanding share of over 42% in 2023. The region has been proactive in adopting the automatic e-call system, making it a requisite in all new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles since March 2018. Furthermore, the EU's mandate for 112-based eCall services in all new vehicle models (classes M1, N1) from March 31, 2018, underscores the system's widespread acceptance in the region.
