I mentioned about my experience about thinking of buying a car in the previous posts. This one is a reiteration to the previous posts. Connected cars as a concept where e2x and e2v technologies , connection between other cars and the environment is going to have even more prominence in the coming years. I see a trend shift in the short term itself.
It will start with the commercial vehicle industry , where optimizing the costs will help in increasing margins and better performance for the vehicles. Few major CV players are already in the fray developing their own products and many of them are already live. This trend is here to stay.
Eventually automobiles will want to retain their future income and data analysis of the vehicle maybe the way ahead for them. Companies in the automobile space think in terms of revenue generation first which ultimately leads to profit generation eventually with optimization. This trend is seen in older companies which have more tangible products, where optimizing for scale brings in margins. Looking for companies in this space looks interesting.
