Cybersecurity and recalls will mean over-the-air updates for 203M cars by 2022

By 2022, there will be 203 million vehicles on the road that can receive software over-the-air updates. Among those vehicles, at least 22 million will also be able to get firmware upgrades. The main reasons automakers are moving quickly to enable OTA upgrades: recall costs, autonomous driving and security risks. The OTA market is expected to reach $45 billion by 2022.
