According to a study published by the TRG (Telematics Research Group), the GPS navigation market will practically increase tenfold over the next five years. The TRG predicts that worldwide volumes will rise from 16.7 million units to… 130.2 million in 2011! The breakdown is clearly highly beneficial to mobile navigation with 109.9 million units compared to only 20.2 million for manufacturers’ in-car systems.
Note that mobile phones will represent the vast majority of mobile GPS terminals, where phones with GPS and other smartphones will account for 97.4 million units, compared to “only” 12.5 million for vehicle-dedicated GPS. A real revolution is taking place.
