One of the primary factors expected to fuel commercial telematics market demand over the next seven years is a high demand for connected vehicles. The technology has reached maturity in developed regions such as North America and Europe. Government rules and regulations for vehicle safety, security, and tracking in various regions drive the growth of the commercial telematics market. The United States Department of Transportation, for example, has issued guidelines for vehicle tracking. According to the same, the fleet manager must provide reports for all violations identified by federal or state investigators, as well as a detailed list of all violations discovered during inspections and state-supplied crash reports. Furthermore, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Advisor requires that all fleet management systems (FMS) be certified. As a result, government regulations for vehicle telematics are driving market growth in North America, resulting in massive growth for the global commercial telematics market. Furthermore, the massive demand for commercial telematics in transportation and logistics activities is the primary reason for North America's commercial telematics market dominance.

China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Australia are some of the key countries that have contributed significantly to the expansion of the Asia Pacific commercial vehicle telematics market.
