The Automotive eCall Market size was estimated at USD 5.54 billion in 2023, USD 6.19 billion in 2024, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.43% to reach USD 12.60 billion by 2030. Speak directly to the analyst to clarify any post sales queries you may have.
eCall is an emergency call system specifically designed for the automotive industry to enhance road safety and minimize response times during accidents. It is a European Union (EU) initiative that became mandatory for all new cars and light-duty vehicles sold within the EU in April 2018. The system automatically dials the European emergency number 112 when a severe accident occurs, enabling faster response from emergency services. The primary objective of eCall is to significantly reduce the time taken by rescue services to arrive at the accident location. eCall functions using advanced sensors integrated into vehicles that detect sudden changes in motion or impact, such as those caused by a collision.
eCall establishes a voice connection with the nearest emergency call center while simultaneously transmitting crucial data such as GPS location, vehicle identification number (VIN), time of the accident, direction of travel (to identify incidents happening on highways), and other relevant information. However, concerns associated with failure and interface and jamming issues of eCall software impact the product deployment. Market players are working on incorporating better features and upgrades in eCall to address these issues. This system is expected to integrate advanced communication technologies such as text messaging, video calls, and telematics data to improve emergency response capabilities. The industry is currently observing strategic collaborations to design and deploy automotive recall systems in connected vehicles.
Regional Insights
The European region has been at the forefront of adopting eCall technology. In April 2018, it became mandatory for all new cars and light commercial vehicles sold within EU member states to be equipped with an integrated eCall system. This legislation was enacted with a prime focus on enhancing road safety by reducing emergency response times. Furthermore, compared to Europe's proactive approach toward eCall adoption, the deployment rate is relatively lower in North and South America. However, there has been a steady increase in public awareness about vehicle safety technologies that provide functionalities similar to eCall systems.While there is no current legal mandate for automatic crash notification systems similar to eCall in this region, recent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) guidelines recommend automakers integrate such features into their vehicles. Market players are working on deploying eCall with telematics solutions and services within the American automotive industry. In Asia, the adoption of eCall systems is still in the nascent stages, with several countries evaluating the feasibility of implementing similar regulatory requirements as Europe. Countries in the region have introduced satellite-based positioning to incorporate telematics services in vehicles. This development has spurred interest among major automotive OEMs and suppliers to invest in this region.
