Additionally, they play a vital role in enhancing safety by monitoring vehicle and equipment conditions. These factors are likely to increase their adoption in the mining, construction, and agriculture industries, thereby fueling the market during the projection period.
The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the market, due to the transportation restrictions imposed by several regulatory bodies and governments all across the globe. The import-export was disrupted and even the mining activities were halted, due to the absence of workers during this period. This led to a decline in the demand for off-highway vehicle (OHV) telematics, thereby causing a market slowdown.
The use of artificial intelligence is likely to provide substantial propulsion to the off-highway vehicle (OHV) telematics market. It offers predictive maintenance capabilities, utilizing machine learning algorithms to analyze data. This helps in predicting potential equipment failure, thereby effectively curbing the downtime. Therefore, the incorporation of AI in OHV telematics is projected to boost the market in the coming period.
Growing emphasis on safety and security is expected to drive the market during the projection period. Industries such as mining, construction, and agriculture rely heavily on off-highway vehicles that pose significant risks to workers.
These risks arise from working with heavy machinery and operating in challenging environments. Businesses have accepted the significance of implementing telematics solutions that enhance safety measures to mitigate these risks and ensure compliance with safety regulations. Moreover, the increasing use of off-road electric vehicles is projected to boost the market during the assessment period.
As per a survey published in May 2023, the electric off-road vehicle sector of the automotive industry is expected to grow at a significant rate in the coming years. It is expected to reach a value of USD 250 million by the year 2027.
High cost of initial investment is likely to hamper the market during the forecast period. Telematics technology involves the installation of specialized hardware such as GPS tracking devices and sensors in each off-highway vehicle.
This hardware is accompanied by the setup of data communication infrastructure and the implementation of fleet management software. The cost of this equipment and software licenses is substantial, especially for businesses with large fleets.
Incorporation of advanced technologies is anticipated to provide substantial growth opportunities for the market. Providers of telematics solutions are voraciously exploring ways to incorporate the latest technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and data analytics.
Integrating with the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) permits telematics systems to capture a broad range of real-time data beyond standard data collection and vehicle tracking. Telematics capture equipment health, environmental conditions, and material levels data by connecting off-highway IoT-enabled devices and sensors to vehicles.
