Vehicle Tracking System Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The global vehicle tracking system market size was approximately USD 24.10 Billion in 2024. The market is further projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.90% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of USD 88.56 Billion by 2034.

Key Trends in the Market

A vehicle tracking system uses GPS satellites and GPS servers to provide accurate information about a vehicle’s location. GPS satellites are connected to GPS tracking devices installed in the vehicle. Their prime task is to gather information on driving hours, date and time, and excessive speeding, and transmit this information over wireless networks to the GPS server. When individuals connect with the server on their computers, they can easily see the vehicle's location in real-time.

• One of the key vehicle tracking system market trends is the robust growth of the automotive industry. Moreover, increasing fleet operations are prompting stakeholders to adopt vehicle tracking systems for route optimisation, improved safety, asset tracking, enhanced productivity, and reduced downtime.
• With growing investments  in the development of autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles, the installation of tracking systems such as GPS to ensure their safe navigation on the road is rising. In June 2023, Zero, an AI-based startup from Bangalore, created India’s first fully autonomous car called zPod.
• With the increasing prominence of ridesharing companies like Ola and Uber as well as packaging and moving companies like Porter and HCL, monitoring passenger safety and selecting the right route have emerged as leading priorities for profitability and customer satisfaction. Hence, the increasing demand for smart vehicles, equipped with GPS and other real-time location-sharing capabilities, is expected to fuel the vehicle tracking system market demand in the forecast period.
