The report reveals a significant strategic shift: rather than selling vehicle data to third parties, automakers are focusing on internal data utilization to create value-generating opportunities. From ADAS and diagnostics to predictive maintenance and new services, OEMs are using their data as the building blocks of intelligent, continuously improving vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><b>Fast facts<\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Smart Diagnostics and Predictive Maintenance are the \u201cKiller Apps\u201d for AI: <\/b>Smart diagnostics and predictive maintenance have emerged as the top priorities for AI, cited by 34% of global respondents, underscoring the industry\u2019s focus on AI applications that deliver measurable ROI.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>The Infrastructure Shift to Containerization: <\/b>As automakers work to overcome legacy integration hurdles, respondents reporting already-deployed containerized applications increased 10% year-over-year between the 2025 and 2026 surveys; the only technology to see double-digit gains. This confirms the industry is moving toward flexible, cloud-native software architectures.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>The Data Monetization Pivot: <\/b>The appeal of selling vehicle data to third parties is declining as OEMs recognize greater value in internal data utilization. Rather than pursuing direct revenue through data sales, automakers are adopting a more mature strategy: channeling data into capability-building applications such as ADAS improvements (41%), product development (38%), and diagnostics. This pivot signals a fundamental shift from external monetization to creating value within their own vehicle ecosystems.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\u201cThe data shows a decisive shift in how automakers are creating value with AI,\u201d said Mait\u00e9 Bezerra, senior principal analyst at Omdia. \u201cPredictive maintenance delivers vehicle-centric value that smartphones cannot replicate. It generates tangible value through an improved driving experience, enhanced reliability, and a better overall ownership experience, ultimately driving customer loyalty. OEMs are enhancing data with AI to make vehicles better over time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Regional Breakdown<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe findings reveal sharp regional differences in how automakers plan to drive customer loyalty and after-sales revenue over the coming years:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>North America\u2019s Service and Content Focus: <\/b>When evaluating which features drive the most customer loyalty and after-sales revenue, North American automakers prioritize service and recurring revenue models. The market is anchored by predictive maintenance (48%), followed by a tie between automated driving and in-vehicle entertainment (41% each), with entertainment seeing the region\u2019s largest year-over-year surge at +11%.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Europe\u2019s Vision-Execution Gap: <\/b>As a whole, Europe is strongly aligned on services, tying North America in ranking predictive maintenance as the top feature for driving customer loyalty and revenue (48%). A deeper look, however, reveals a critical execution gap in the region\u2019s largest market. German automakers rank predictive maintenance as a top revenue driver (47%), yet report the lowest AI deployment for it globally (just 18%), signaling the country remains in the planning phase while global competitors scale.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Japan\u2019s Quality-First Strategy: <\/b>Japanese automakers are betting heavily on functional performance and quality to drive customer loyalty. Automated driving is their undisputed top priority (50%, a 10% increase from 2025), indicating growing confidence in autonomy as a safety differentiator. Notably, Japan also leads the world in prioritizing ride customization (37%), reflecting a unique cultural emphasis on driving dynamics and comfort over aesthetic personalization.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>China\u2019s Dramatic Pivot: <\/b>As the most advanced SDV market by deployment, China is experiencing a massive shift in how it drives customer loyalty. Traditional vehicle data monetization dropped 25% from 2025, as Chinese OEMs made aggressive pivots toward automated driving (54%) and enhanced personalization (53%) to create visible, experience-driven differentiation.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\u201cWhat stands out in this year\u2019s results is how quickly operational AI is maturing,\u201d said John Heinlein, Ph.D, chief marketing officer, of Sonatus. \u201cAutomakers see value in strengthening diagnostics, reducing costs, and delivering a better service experience. Predictive maintenance is emerging as a strong proof point, supported by the industry\u2019s move toward more flexible, software-driven architectures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Omdia 2026 Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) Survey analyzed the responses of 559 automotive professionals across seven major markets (U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, France, Japan, and China) conducted in March-April 2026.
