Semi-Autonomous And Autonomous Bus Market Demand Drivers Opening New Revenue Streams
The increasing demand for 5G technology for vehicle connectivity is expected to propel the growth of the semi-autonomous and autonomous bus market going forward. 5G technology for vehicle connectivity refers to the use of fifth-generation (5G) cellular network technology to enable high-speed, low-latency communication between vehicles (V2V) and between vehicles and infrastructure (V2X). 5G enables direct communication between vehicles, allowing semi-autonomous and autonomous buses to help improve road safety by enabling vehicles to alert each other about potential hazards and coordinate their movements to avoid accidents. For instance, in August 2023, according to the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA), a Germany-based cross-industry association for connected and autonomous vehicles, over 45 million annual 5G-connected passenger vehicles will be shipped globally by 2025. Therefore, the increasing demand for 5G technology for vehicle connectivity is driving the semi-autonomous and autonomous bus market.
