Automotive manufacturers need an efficient and comprehensive solution to remotely manage the accelerating amount of software inside of today’s connected cars. This presentation, given by Roger Lanctot of Strategy Analytics, describes the current OEM embedded telematics market conditions and the future of the connected car.

3. Where We Stand Today
Universal Connectivity
Vs.
Consumer Indifference
12. Big Picture
• Embedded telematics is not taking off
• Smartphone connections are failing, fragmenting
• Navigation/traffic has become a battleground – awareness
growing, solutions/service quality improving
• Loss of focus on core value propositions
• But there is light at the end of the tunnel:
– VRM-CRM
– Safety
13. Connectivity Status Report
1. Customers don’t want to pay for embedded
2. Not enough customers connecting their smartphones
3. Too many “platforms,” apps, and content chasing too few
connections
4. Need to drive daily relevant applications to drive adoption:
Traffic, weather, streaming content
5. OBJECTIVE: Standard embedded connectivity
6. TIMEFRAME: 4-5 years+
7. SHORT-TERM: Smart-phone connectivity focus
15. Big Three
•
•
•
•
GM/OnStar – 100%!
Chrysler – will be ~ 10% for MY14 – FOTA via smartphone
Ford – EVs only for now – thumb drive updates - future?
Lincoln – Announced intention to embed
16. Japan
• Toyota – Not yet – FOTA via smartphone / Lexus ~ 100%
• Honda – Not yet / Acura -> 100%
• Nissan – Not yet / Infiniti -> 100%
• Others – still in planning
18. France, Italy, UK, Sweden
•
•
•
•
•
Fiat – not yet – thumb drive updates
Renault < 20%
PSA < 20%
Volvo -> 100% outside the U.S. – limited updates
Jaguar – not yet
20. Common Thread
• Japanese mass brands – value-oriented customer, highly reliable
cars, low cost of ownership – difficult to justify embedded
modem
• German luxury brands – BMW has made 100% fitment table
stakes
• VW, Hyundai, Kia – similar value prop and challenge as Japanese
• Domestics – GM’s planned shift to LTE will change the game –
true FOTA coming (ie. ECU updatability) – Chysler and Ford
following slowly
23. Why connect all cars?
Revenue
Metrics – Can’t monetize or manage what you
can’t measure
Retention – What happened to our customers?
Competitive threats – insurance
companies, independent dealers
Preserve the value of the fleet – lease
customers, etc.
24. Why connect all cars?
Crowdsourcing – traffic, weather, safety, maps
Community building – ownership experience
Firmware updates – which version? Universal
deployment
Service – Dealer metrics for scheduled, ad hoc
Real-time customer connection
Customer identification management
Customer portal
Vehicle life-cycle management
25. Why FOTA?
• Hundreds of millions of lines of code
• Why identify problems (diagnostics/prognostics) if you
can’t/won’t fix them?
• Need to update mission-critical safety systems, powertrain etc.
• Aftersales added value – enhance/transform ownership
experience
• Reward consumer for being/staying connected
• Software recalls – cost avoidance
• Customer expectation/OEM obligation
• We didn’t do it because we couldn’t – onset of LTE means “no
excuses”
26. Sirius XM Concept
Sirius XM is proposing a
combination LTE/Satellite
module as part of its plan to
transition into telematics.
Expected plan is to shift
content distribution to XM
while Sirius satellites are used
for video and/or software updating. This concept
has been greeted with skepticism by OEMs.
27. Biggest FOTA Challenges
• Role of the dealer – lost sales/service revenue, out of the loop
• Consumer awareness/understanding/acceptance – customer
MUST be notified – customer MUST accept
• Frequency – ad hoc, monthly, quarterly
• Threshold for update – safety, security, size, timing, functionality
Big Customer Relationship Win + Potential Dealer Alienation
Goal: Make it Win-Win for all
28. Current Dealer Landscape
• Hostile to FOTA
• Misinformation/confusion regarding updates due to changes
from hardwire to wireless updating at the dealer
• Lack of dealer-integrated management system for tracking
versions etc.
• Software updates = customer visit = opportunity!
• Software updates as a customer value proposition – a means to
exclude aftermarket – updates disable “mods”
• Updating ECUs is an important new phase!

36. Tesla – Industry Disruption
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Field upgradable telecom module
Field upgradable graphics
Company-owned stores
Streaming content via embedded modem
Limited HMI overhead + touch-centric vs. voice-centric
Firmware over the air updates
Top safety rating
Top score in Consumer Reports
Top Strategy Analytics customer clinic evaluation
Non-traditional sourcing and development
Googlemap! (VIDEO #1)
37. Tesla Update Process
•
•
•
•
•
Notification message in car “Tesla has an update”
“Press here to download”
Timing of download and time required for download provided
Approve or change timing
Post update: Message detailing contents of update
• Biggest update thus far: addition of “creep” – addition of voice to
make phone calls
40. Google – Industry Disruption
• Self-contained – no connection necessary
• Uses its own map
• Multiple consumer, commercial applications
• Quanergy: targeting replacing $70K Lidar unit with $500 unit with
rotating element -> $200 solid state device
41. Elements Enabled by LTE
•
•
•
•
•
•
Personalized, contextualized content engine (audio & video)
Live map – hybrid on/off-board – map updating
Ad hoc/mesh networked connectivity – Wi-Fi, cellular, other
Secure gateway (Cisco)
Alert-driven/workload managed interface – traffic, weather, etc.
Communication efficiency optimized – on/off-board data
management/processing “delta-focused”
• Voice (Nuance), Metadata (Gracenote)
• Preferences/policy-managed – data, app use, privacy
42. Four Core Value Propositions for Connectivity
1.
2.
3.
4.
Navigation/traffic/location – contextual awareness
VRM/CRM
Streaming content
Connected safety – anticipating/avoiding crashes
OBJECTIVE: Telematics 2.0 = collision avoidance + delivering
critical, real-time information safely to the driver before/as it is
needed
45. Telematics 1.0 - Shortcomings
Reactive
Limited dealer engagement
Limited use of vehicle data
Limited consumer access to data
Limited dealer access to data
45
46. Telematics 2.0
Firmware over the air updates
Prognostics
VRM
IP-based traffic data, hybrid speech
recognition
Streaming content

47. FOTA as a core connected car value proposition
•
•
•
•
Necessary for mission-critical, safety updates
Strengthening bonds to the customer AND the car
Adding value after the sale
Avoiding costly recalls and, in some cases, inconvenient dealer
visits
• Enhancing the customer experience
• Maintaining vehicle software integrity
