4 EV and Connected Transportation movements of smartphone-carrying pedestrians, empower stop lights to optimize the flow of traffic, and enable GPS systems to sync with available parking spaces. What will underpin that ecosystem is a robust connective framework that facilitates an unprecedented volume of high-speed data transmission. There is much work to be done before V2X becomes an everyday reality, but the opportunity for growth is significant, as the connected vehicle market is expected to see a 17% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2023 and 2028 ii . From my vantage point, these developments could not be more exciting. Our industry-leading and proven capabilities enabling high-speed data transmission and processing for the world's leading cloud players, paired with our legacy of expertise in the automotive sector, uniquely position us to capture new opportunities in this connected economy. N early 10 years in the making, widespread 5G adoption is unlocking new opportunities in decades-old—and even centuries-old— industries. Notably, the automotive sector is especially poised for a radical change. While much of the buzz in the industry today is deservedly focused on electrification, ubiquitous 5G has the potential to upend the driving experience as we know it, creating smarter, safer, and more connected vehicles. From advanced navigation to infotainment systems to autonomous technology, passenger vehicles are quickly emerging as not just a mode of transportation, but as veritable data centers on wheels. Estimates suggest that driverless vehicles, for example, could generate over four terabytes of data per day i . With the advent of reliable high-speed, low-latency data transmission, the industry has its sights set on a new vehicle-to-everything (V2X) landscape, which will allow cars to talk to other cars and predict the V2X Ecosystems Are Paving the Way to Automotive Autonomy Sudhakar Sabada, TE Connectivity
