Automotive electronic logging devices (ELDs) are digital tools utilized in the transportation industry to meticulously record a commercial driver's hours of service (HOS) and vehicle data. These devices supplant traditional paper logbooks, thereby improving accuracy and compliance with regulations while simultaneously minimizing the likelihood of errors.
The primary components of automotive electronic logging devices (ELDs) include display and telematics units. The display unit serves as the user interface, presenting essential data such as driving hours, vehicle diagnostics, and navigation information. These units come in various form factors, including embedded and integrated displays, and offer a range of services from entry-level to high-end. They are utilized across various vehicle types, including light commercial vehicles (LCVs) and heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs).

This automotive electronic logging device market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The automotive electronic logging devices (ELDs) market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $13.09 billion in 2023 to $13.83 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to several factors, including the increased adoption of telematics solutions, growing concerns regarding driver fatigue management, the expansion of the gig economy and last-mile delivery services, the necessity for accurate tracking of hours of service, and the rising demand for comprehensive compliance reporting.
The automotive electronic logging device market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $17.40 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including an increasing emphasis on efficiency and productivity in the transportation industry, a growing focus on supply chain visibility, a rising demand for solutions that monitor driver behavior, the expanding transportation and logistics sector, and increased investment in smart transportation infrastructure. Major trends expected in this period include technological advancements in ELD hardware, a shift towards paperless recordkeeping, the development of mobile ELD applications, the expansion of the commercial trucking industry, and advancements in data security and privacy measures.
The expanding transportation and logistics sector is poised to drive significant growth within the automotive electronic logging device (ELD) market. Transportation and logistics encompass the efficient movement and management of goods, people, and resources from one location to another. This sector's demand is propelled by the expansion of e-commerce and the need for streamlined supply chain management. ELD systems offer real-time monitoring capabilities, empowering fleet managers to track vehicle status and position, monitor driver behavior, and receive alerts for potential issues such as unauthorized vehicle use or excessive idling. By automating the collection and storage of critical data related to driver activity and vehicle operations, ELDs streamline record-keeping processes in the transportation and logistics sectors. For instance, as indicated by the 2023 State of Logistics Report by Logistics Management in July 2023, commercial logistics expenses in the United States surged to $2.3 trillion over the year 2022, marking a notable 19.6% increase from 2021. This robust growth underscores the pivotal role of the transportation and logistics sector in driving the expansion of the automotive electronic logging device market.
Major companies are focusing on developing advanced products such as the Vehicle Link ELD. This compact device offers features such as hours of service (HOS) reporting and driver vehicle inspection report (DVIR) logs, providing fleet managers with comprehensive monitoring capabilities. For example, Rand McNally introduced the Vehicle Link ELD in May 2022, designed to enable fleet managers to check truck location and vehicle status efficiently. This ELD plugs into a truck's diagnostic port and pairs with a mobile app, allowing for seamless transmission of HOS information and electronic vehicle inspection reports. Such innovations not only improve compliance and safety measures but also enhance operational efficiency in fleet management.
In June 2021, Solera Holdings Inc., a leading technology company, made strategic acquisitions of Omnitracs, DealerSocket, and eDriving to strengthen its position in the automotive technology landscape. With Omnitracs being a prominent manufacturer of automotive ELDs as part of its fleet management solutions, these acquisitions enable Solera to offer comprehensive vehicle lifecycle solutions and bridge the gap between vehicle and driver performance on a global scale.
