Middle East: technology and infrastructure investments lead to rise in demand for telematics
With a strong focus on innovation and technology, the Middle East is making rapid advances in fleet digitalization, with telematics solutions widely adopted across the vehicle rental, oil, and construction industries. A notable trend is governmental support for the shift to electric vehicles, backed by incentives and infrastructure investments. Another critical factor is the growing use of AI and big data in the region, driving a race for fleet digitalization.
Wialon partners from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, UAE, Kuwait, Lebanon were the most prolific in installing connections to the WIalon platform in 2024.
North America: vehicle safety, driver assistance systems and EV transition drive growth
