A study by Juniper Research predicts that app capability will reach a fifth of all consumer vehicles in the developed markets of North America and Western Europe by 2017.

The success of new standards such as MirrorLink will create the foundations that will allow the connected car ecosystem to flourish.

This growing trend is expected to exert downward pressure on the price of automakers’ own embedded infotainment services, the study says.

Actually, the only factor holding back even faster deployment of in-vehicle Internet will be the slow growth in the new vehicle market.
