This growth is mainly driven by increasing government investment and initiatives for developing smart transportation systems. IAMT and CTP systems incorporate Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics to reduce congestion and improve traffic management and transportation efficiency.
By 2029 the Asia-Pacific smart transportation market will reach over USD 69.50 billion while experiencing a 18.8% CAGR throughout the forecast period.
The market growth speeds up due to regional trends including digital technology adoption growth and increasing population density and rising need for affordable transportation solutions.
The global transition toward electric vehicles drives the smart transportation market growth because China experienced its largest-ever EV sales total of 11 million units which expanded +40% since 2022. Experts predict that electric vehicles will surpass traditional internal combustion engine automobiles in the Chinese market during 2025.
But the obstacles to implementation remain: high implementation costs, data privacy issues and major infrastructure development that needs to happen. However, despite these challenges, the market is set for significant expansion, especially in environmentally conscious, efficient operating urban populations.
To sum up, the smart transportation would witness a significant growth owing to technological improvement, government support and global shift towards smart transportation solutions. With population density in cities reaching peak levels, we’re expected to witness an increased demand for effective urban transport systems on the regular as countries invest in smart technology which is a mammoth opportunity for all players in this space.
