Press Release, 10 November 2025
The Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC) has published its first-ever “2025 Future of Vehicle Connectivity Report,” revealing how the connected vehicle landscape is shifting from ambition to action. The study, based on insights from more than 250 respondents across 20+ countries and drawn from over 300 member companies including automakers, suppliers and tech-providers, identifies security, ease of use and interoperability as the top features driving the next wave of connected mobility.
Key findings: about 60 % of respondents ranked privacy and usability as the most important features of connected vehicles, 72 % pointed to GPS-based fleet tracking as a major value driver, and interoperability technologies such as Bluetooth LE (84 %), ultra-wideband (77 %) and NFC (75 %) are gaining strong momentum. CCC notes that as the market for software-defined vehicles is projected to reach up to US $600 billion by 2030, automakers and tech players are realigning their strategies around standardized, seamless and secure connectivity platforms.
With connected vehicles moving from proof-of-concept to production deployment, CCC emphasises that building trust and ensuring cross-brand compatibility will be foundational to unlocking mass market adoption. As CCC President Alysia Johnson puts it: “Security and simplicity are now table stools, and interoperability is the bridge connecting it all.”
