However, lack of infrastructure and additional cost burden on consumers can hinder the growth of the V2X market.

The V2X market is dominated by a few global players. Some of the key manufacturers operating in the market are Continental (Germany), Qualcomm (US), Delphi Automotive (UK), NXP Semiconductors (Netherlands), and Robert Bosch (Germany).

Increasing environmental concerns to lead the adoption of connected vehicles which in turn leads to V2X technology

Vehicle-To-Cloud (V2c)

It is a model that delivers a plethora of options such as weather updates, firmware & software updates, multimedia services, etc. over cloud (internet) inside a vehicle. These features are deployed in a vehicle to create a congenial atmosphere and help the vehicle user and passengers to stay connected with the outside environment. However, such features and applications need a constant update for proper functioning. To avoid any malware, such updates are provided with the help of cloud-based services. Furthermore, the growing demand of consumers for digitalization and growing complexity of connected vehicles will lead to a V2C. V2C technologies are expected to play a pivotal role in connected and autonomous vehicle applications. Various systems and applications of such vehicles will be offered in the cloud from where they will control the entire operations of a vehicle.

Vehicle-To-Pedestrian (V2p)

Vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communication involves detection of pedestrians on or near the roads. V2P detection system can be implemented in vehicles to provide warnings to drivers. In V2P communication, a pedestrian uses a warning system, which is a handheld device such as a smartphone or smart watch, which would enable information exchange between the pedestrian and vehicle. According to the US DOT, 4,884 pedestrians were killed and an estimated 65,000 were injured in traffic crashes in the United States in 2014. According to a 2016 report “Spotlight on Highway Safety” by Governors Highway Safety Association, there has been a 10% increase in the number of pedestrians killed in 2015 compared with 2014, which has led the US government to take steps to protect pedestrians on roads. The US Department of Transportation (DOT) has planned to test V2P technologies at the Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center (Virginia) intersection test bed for market readiness and real-world implementation.

Vehicle-To-Grid (V2g)

Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) communication technology is the integration of an electric car into the public power grid. The integration of electric cars and the grid would lead to reduction in grid instability. The communication allows the grid to have the data on the energy available in the automobile and to calculate the time for next recharge, which can help solve the energy storage problem of grids. Asia Pacific includes China and Japan which is the two major countries in terms of EV sales, and hence it is an attractive market for V2G communication technology in Asia Pacific.

Vehicle-To-Infrastructure (V2i)

The vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) connectivity is the wireless exchange of critical operational data between vehicles and the infrastructure, intended not only to mitigate vehicle crashes but also to enable a wide range of other safety, mobility, and environmental benefits. The V2I communication technology applies to all vehicle types and roads and transforms the infrastructure equipment into smart infrastructure through the incorporation of algorithms. These algorithms use data exchanged between vehicles and infrastructure elements to perform calculations that can recognize high-risk positions in advance and alert the drivers. Intelligent traffic system, parking management system, and fleet & asset management are some of the common applications of the V2I market. A significant advancement is the ability of traffic signal systems to communicate the signal phase and timing information to the vehicle. V2I communication would allow suggestions to be broadcasted to drivers through road displays, by means of wireless connections.

Vehicle-To-Vehicle (V2v)

Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication is the wireless exchange of data among vehicles traveling in the same vicinity, which offers opportunities for significant safety improvements. The V2V connectivity approach is most suited for short-range vehicular networks. Emergency brake light warning, forward collision warning, intersection movement assist, blind spot and lane change warning, do-not-pass warning, and control loss warning are some of the common V2V communication functions.

Government initiatives to fully commercialize V2V communication is expected to be the major factor driving the V2V market in North America. In 2014, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) under the US DOT announced to take steps to enable V2V communication for light vehicles, which would help improve safety. In 2015, DOT announced that New York City, Wyoming, and Tampa would receive up to USD 42 million funding to pilot next-generation V2V and V2I communication technologies.

Vehicle-To-Device (V2d)

Vehicle-to-Device (V2D) is a wireless communication between the automobile and a device that is used to access information on the status of the vehicle with direct configuration options (air conditioning, windows, and doors). V2D communication provides functions such as vehicle status including information on fuel status, oil level, and lamp check, internal and external temperature, evaluating routes, share audio, and compilation of vehicle data needed to file tax claims for commuting expenses. The V2D technology can also be used for locking or unlocking the vehicle remotely and for remote home automation functions such as lighting and garage opening. The V2D communication technology also enables the vehicle owner to communicate with the car charger at home to inform regarding the charge available in the vehicle and when the next charging would be required. Ford (US) and Amazon (US) are working on connecting a car to home, which enables the driver to access the home automation functions such as home lighting and garage door openers.
