China Passenger Car Telematics Industry Report, 2014-2017 - Opportunities and Operator Business Models


Since GM OnStar and Toyota G-Book officially embarked on China’s market in 2009, Chinese passenger car brands have launched their own Telematics products, such as Ford SYNC, Nissan CARWINGS, SAIC InKaNet, Honda HondaLink, Geely G-NetLink, Mercedes-Benz CONNECT, Volvo Sensus, BMW ConnectedDrive, Yueda KIA UVO, Dongfeng Citroen Citro?n Connect, Dongfeng Peugeot Blue-i, Hyundai Blue Link, Changan in Call, Chery Cloudrive and so on.

In order to occupy "the fourth screen" in the mobile Internet era, domestic and foreign Internet giants begin to highlight Internet of Vehicles (IoV) in 2014, for example, Apple has released CarPlay vehicle system, Google has launched Android Auto, Alibaba has acquired AutoNavi and cooperated with SAIC to develop Internet automotive supplies, Tencent unveiled Lubao Box and held stake in Navinfo, Baidu collaborated with TimaNetworks to launch CARNET. As China's position in the global automotive market becomes more important, the competition in the Chinese passenger car Telematics market will turn to be more intense.


Chinese Telematics market falls into OEM market and aftermarket. The traditional OEM market focuses on traffic safety, such as remote assistance and other functions; the aftermarket emphasizes entertainment and other personalized services. However, OEM brands have paid more attention to the combination with mobile Internet and hope to make users have better experience; coupled with their inherent advantages in the industrial chain, they expect to master higher market share in the future.

There were more than 4,000 enterprises engaged in IoV aftermarket in China around 2012, but most of them have closed down or been struggling to survive now. For now, even large suppliers (like PATEO and Chinatsp) linked with considerable automobile companies see unsatisfying profitability. The fundamental reason lies in the lack of eye-catching Telematics applications which users are eager to pay for. Navigation and radio of the traditional vehicle system are the most frequently used functions for users. Telematics vendors intend to introduce a variety of innovative applications to intensify user viscosity, but they see little effect, which directly makes the IoV activation rate of new cars remain at less than 30%.



In the Chinese passenger car IoV market, GM OnStar has always played a leading role. In the first eight months of 2014, about 77,000 Chinese users pre-installed OnStar for the first time, and the majority of them were Buick owners.

Currently, the second-ranked passenger car IoV brand is Ford SYNC. In August 2014, Ford SYNC attracted about 48,000 new users in China.

In the future, Telematics should not only function as a marketing tool for automobile enterprises to enhance sales volume, but also a product that users really need. In order to stimulate consumption, all manufacturers need to accelerate the integration of automotive information devices and mobile Internet devices to provide users with diversified mobile Internet value-added services, as well as vigorously promote mobile mapping and connection with smart wearable devices to serve customers considerately.

With the participation of a large number of Internet companies and enriched IoV services, the activation rate of IoV features in the Chinese passenger car market is expected to keep rising, and the IoV user base will also expand rapidly.

Airbag fabric is mainly used to produce automotive airbag. Affected by technology, certification and supply chain relationship, there are higher barriers to entry for new manufacturers. Globally, the supply of airbag fabric is monopolized by the manufacturers from Japan, Europe and America. Similarly, the supply of airbag yarn (raw material for airbag fabric) is also in a state of oligopoly, basically controlled by American INVISTA, German PHP, Japanese Toray and several other companies.

Benefiting from a burgeoning automobile market in China, the demand for airbag increases rapidly, with domestic demand for airbag fabric reaching 28.94 million meters in 2013. As China introduces more and more laws and regulations about safety products, automotive airbag grows popular and installation rate rises gradually, the demand for airbag fabric in China will be huge, expected to stand at 43.86 million meters in 2018.



China's automobile industry has ushered in an explosive growth since 2000, with car ownership rising to 137 million by 2013, second only to the United States. According to an estimated average car scrappage deadline of 10-15 years, China will see the first car scrappage peak in 2015.

China's overall automobile scrap rate was only 4% in 2013, far lower than 6%-8% of developed countries, mainly because national policies on motor vehicle liquidation are still unclear and the industry still desires to be regulated. At the same time, China’s low capacity to formally dismantle and process end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) is far behind the needs.
