The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising adoption of telematics in construction equipment, increasing demand for fleet optimization, stronger focus on equipment safety, expansion of remote monitoring solutions, and higher operational efficiency requirements.

The off-highway vehicle telematics market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.67 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising adoption of internet of things (IoT), increasing government incentives for smart construction solutions, higher demand for real-time data analytics, expansion of cloud-based telematics services, and growing need for fuel efficiency and emission control. Key trends in the forecast period include innovations in predictive maintenance algorithms, developments in vehicle-to-cloud connectivity, research and development in autonomous off-highway machinery, investment in edge computing solutions for telematics, and advancements in AI-based fleet optimization tools.

The rising demand for off-highway vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the off-highway vehicle telematics market going forward. Off-highway vehicles (OHVs) are specialized vehicles designed for use on rough, unpaved, or off-road terrains rather than public roads. Demand for OHVs is increasing as growing construction and mining activities require robust machinery to operate efficiently on challenging terrains. Off-highway vehicle telematics supports this demand by enabling real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and improved operational efficiency. It facilitates better fleet management, reduces downtime, and increases productivity, driving adoption across construction, mining, and agricultural sectors. For example, in May 2025, the Consumer Federation of America, a US-based non-profit organization, reported that off-highway vehicle-related fatalities in the U.S. rose from 498 in 2023 to 632 in early 2024, reflecting increased off-road vehicle usage. Therefore, the growing demand for off-highway vehicles is fueling the growth of the off-highway vehicle telematics market.

Key companies in the off-highway vehicle telematics market are focusing on developing advanced connectivity solutions, such as cloud-based platform access, to boost efficiency, enable data-driven decision-making, and streamline farm management. Cloud-based platform access refers to integrated systems that allow agricultural machinery to share real-time operational data with farm management software for centralized monitoring and analysis. For instance, in November 2023, Continental AG, a Germany-based automotive and technology manufacturing company, launched a scalable telematics platform specifically designed for agricultural machinery. It leverages Continental's expertise in connecting cars and trucks and adapts it for farm equipment. The solution provides seamless cloud access, allowing farmers to monitor and analyze machine data such as fuel consumption, working areas, and material usage. This integration enables automatic transfer of task data, supporting compliance and optimized resource allocation without manual effort.

In October 2025, Geotab Inc., a Canada-based telematics company, acquired Verizon Connect Inc. for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Geotab aims to expand its global presence in fleet and off-highway vehicle telematics, grow its customer base, and enhance data analytics by integrating Verizon Connect’s fleet solutions with its own telematics platform for greater efficiency and real-time insights. Verizon Connect Inc., a US-based telematics and fleet management company, provides off-highway vehicle (OHV) telematics solutions.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The swift increase in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly affecting the transport services sector by driving up costs for vehicles, spare parts, and fuel, key inputs often sourced from tariff-affected regions. Freight operators, logistics providers, and public transportation systems are facing squeezed profit margins as higher equipment and maintenance costs coincide with limited ability to pass on these expenses to customers due to competitive pressures. The uncertainty has also delayed fleet modernization and the adoption of greener, more efficient vehicles, slowing progress toward sustainability goals. To adapt, transport firms are optimizing route planning, investing in fuel efficiency technologies, renegotiating supplier contracts, and exploring collaborative logistics models to share costs and mitigate the impact of higher tariffs.
