The car navigation systems market in three ASEAN countries – Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand – is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.2 percent (2011-2018) to reach 2.08 million units in 2018, says a new report by Frost & Sullivan. Personal navigation devices (PNDs) are expected to dominate the ASEAN navigation systems market.

The new analysis, Strategic Growth Opportunities in Navigation Systems Market in ASEAN, finds that the PND segment had a market share of 93 percent in 2011, and will remain the preferred device in the future.

“The segment’s share however, is expected to drop, as consumers are slowly shifting towards embedded type navigation systems due to convenience and aesthetics,” said Frost & Sullivan consulting analyst, Automotive Practice, Asia Pacific, Firhan Nair. “The introduction of android phones and tablets that offer free navigational applications is also acting as a restraint for the overall navigation systems market.”

OEMs are currently offering navigation systems for higher grade models within the vehicle line-ups, but not all brands offer such systems. OE and dealer fitments only account for 7 per cent of the total navigation systems market in 2011.

Luxury brands such as 1731 BMW and 1685 Mercedes-Benz have standardised their offering of navigation systems across majority vehicle line-ups. Other brands are beginning to recognise this as a unique selling feature.

“The aftermarket segment will remain the dominant segment of the navigation systems market due to lower costs,” he concluded.
