Asia Pacific Connected Auto Insurance Study

Will connected cars dominate the auto insurance industry in the Asia Pacific region?

Asia Pacific Connected Auto Insurance

With the now dominant share of connected cars being sold in developed countries, OEMs are responding to the demand for km-based policies.

Aided by the COVID-19 pandemic but also OEMs’ own initiatives, connected car insurance is increasingly substituting traditional car insurance. Since 2017, the growth of connected car insurance programmes has been outpacing insurance based on aftermarket devices.

PTOLEMUS’ research identified that at least 13 global OEMs have launched telematics insurance programmes in the last two years, all of which use the car’s built-in connectivity without the need for additional aftermarket hardware.

PTOLEMUS has found that aftermarket devices will continue to hold a significant global marketshare for the next 5 years, but PTOLEMUS expects the share of black boxes, cigarette-lighter adaptor, dash cameras and OBD dongles globally to decline by 2030.

That is not to say that the future will be OEM data only. Indeed, PTOLEMUS also found that the growth in smartphone-based programmes will continue for Pay How You Drive programmes.

This can be attributed to the ease of app distribution and relative low cost.

Critically however, the biggest strength of smartphone insurance comes from its ability to connect with the consumer in a way that no other aftermarket device can offer.
