According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Automotive NAD (Network Access Device) and Wireless Communication Module market size was valued at US$ 2504 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 4513 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 8.9% during review period.
In 2024, global Automotive NAD (Network Access Device) and Wireless Communication Module market reached approximately 137 million units, with an average global market price of around US$ 17 per unit. Automotive wireless module is a functional module that integrates chips, memory, power amplifier devices, etc. on a circuit board, and provides standard interfaces for transmitting and collecting data. It is the underlying hardware for cars to connect to the Internet of Vehicles and the Internet. Realize direct communication and information exchange between vehicle and cloud, vehicle and vehicle, vehicle and road, vehicle and person (mobile terminal). According to different communication technologies, wireless module can be divided into communication modules and positioning modules, among which communication modules are divided into cellular communication modules and non-cellular communication modules according to different network standards. Most of the automotive wireless communication modules are based on 4/5G(NAD) and a few are WIFI modules.
The Automotive Network Access Device (NAD) and wireless communication module market has become a strategic pillar of the connected vehicle ecosystem, driven by the growing demand for telematics, infotainment, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and autonomous vehicle development. NADs and wireless communication modules act as the backbone of vehicle-to-cloud and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, enabling features such as real-time navigation, over-the-air (OTA) updates, predictive maintenance, and enhanced safety services. The market has evolved rapidly with the global rollout of 4G LTE and the ongoing transition to 5G, which significantly enhances bandwidth, latency, and reliability for automotive applications. In addition, the growing use of embedded SIM (eSIM) technology and multi-standard modules ensures vehicles can remain connected across diverse regions and networks. The development trajectory is strongly tied to regulatory frameworks, consumer demand for connectivity, and automakers’ push for differentiation through connected services.
Regionally, the market shows diverse growth patterns. In North America, connected vehicle adoption is strongly supported by high smartphone penetration, consumer preference for in-car connectivity, and strong investment in autonomous vehicle R&D. Europe leads in regulatory-driven adoption, with mandates for eCall systems and emphasis on road safety accelerating the installation of NADs and wireless modules in new vehicles. The Asia-Pacific region, particularly China, Japan, and South Korea, has emerged as the largest growth hub due to rapid expansion of electric vehicles (EVs), strong government support for smart mobility, and widespread deployment of 5G infrastructure. China in particular has leveraged local technology champions and aggressive rollout of intelligent transportation systems to boost adoption. Other regions, such as Latin America and the Middle East, are still in early stages but show potential as 4G/5G networks expand and connected car penetration increases.
Opportunities in this market are significant, as the convergence of connectivity, electrification, and autonomy requires robust, flexible communication solutions. The shift toward software-defined vehicles creates demand for modular NADs that support multiple frequency bands and can be upgraded via software. Integration with vehicle telematics platforms, cybersecurity solutions, and cloud ecosystems also expands value capture beyond hardware sales into recurring software and service revenue. Moreover, government mandates for safety services and the rising importance of V2X applications in smart cities open long-term prospects. Partnerships between automakers, telecom providers, and technology firms are intensifying, offering additional avenues for ecosystem development.
At the same time, the market faces important risks and challenges. The rapid pace of technological change means that modules can quickly become obsolete, forcing suppliers to invest heavily in R&D and stay aligned with evolving telecom standards. High costs of 5G-enabled modules pose adoption hurdles in mass-market vehicles, particularly in price-sensitive regions. Cybersecurity remains a critical concern, as connected vehicles present new vulnerabilities that could undermine consumer trust and regulatory approval. Supply chain disruptions, semiconductor shortages, and dependency on a limited number of advanced component suppliers further heighten risks. In addition, interoperability issues between telecom operators, regions, and automakers can slow standardization and adoption.
