Top 10 Digital Transportation Solutions Companies – 2022

The global transportation industry is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 3.4 percent, reaching a value of $7.8 trillion by 2027. The overarching trends from machine learning and AI to sustainability and electrification happening throughout the industry are helping the space reach in reaching its greater heights.

Electrification is one of the significant trends affecting the transportation industry since it is a paradigm shift from conventional engine-based vehicles to efficient and cleaner electrified automobiles. Electric vehicles (EVs) are estimated to grow to 13 percent by 2025 and 22 percent by 2030. Seeing the lucrative opportunities, automotive OEMs in the commercial vehicle segment have begun launching newer electric truck models.

Among all modes of transportation, trucks carry the greatest volume of freight across the country, often across long distances.
