Growing Adoption of AI and IoT in Smart Transportation
The India smart transportation market growth is driven by the rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to enhance operational efficiency and passenger experience. AI-powered traffic management systems are being deployed to optimize traffic flow, reduce congestion, and minimize travel time. IoT-enabled smart sensors are improving vehicle tracking, predictive maintenance, and automated toll collection. For instance, Karnataka government ordered the installation of the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) for public cars on January 27, 2025, in accordance with AIS-140 criteria. In order to improve passenger safety and lower occurrences like accidents and thefts, this directive mandates that more than 6.5 lakh vehicles, including taxis, school buses, and public transportation, be outfitted with Vehicle Location Tracking (VLT) devices and emergency panic buttons. Over 40,000 vehicles have been equipped with these AIS-140 compatible devices as of December 31, 2024, and operations are managed by a centralized monitoring center located in the RTO Commissioner Building. With government initiatives such as Smart Cities Mission, investments in intelligent transportation solutions are increasing. The growing demand for real-time traffic data, safety enhancements, and environmental sustainability is further accelerating the adoption of AI and IoT in India's transportation sector.
Expansion of Electric and Connected Mobility
The shift toward electric and connected mobility is a major trend in India’s smart transportation market, driven by sustainability goals and technological advancements. The rapid deployment of electric buses, smart charging infrastructure, and vehicle-to-grid connectivity is transforming urban transit. Public and private partnerships are bolstering investments in EV fleets and shared mobility solutions. For instance, a 2025 industry report stated that due to favorable incentives and rising demand, the country's operational electric vehicle (EV) fleet will exceed 28 million units by 2030. It is anticipated that this expansion will result in a considerable demand for energy from the grid, highlighting the significance of sustainability in the country's transportation industry. By 2030, 83% of yearly EV sales will be electric two-wheelers, 10% will be electric four-wheelers, and 7% will be commercial vehicles, such as trucks, buses, and three-wheelers, according to estimates. The rise of 5G connectivity is also enhancing vehicle communication, improving safety, and enabling smart road infrastructure. Government incentives and policies promoting electric and autonomous mobility are accelerating the transition, making smart and sustainable transportation systems a key focus for urban development in India, which in turn is positively impacting the India smart transportation market outlook.
