Based on connectivity, the connected motorcycle market is fragmented into embedded, tethered and aftermarket. The embedded segment dominates the market with 53% share in 2024, and the segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 22.6% from 2025 to 2034.

• Motorcycle OEM is increasingly developing embedded telematics units that incorporate Advanced Rider Assistance Systems (ARAS such as collision alerts and blind-spot detection) and Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) systems in their new motorcycles. These ARAS and V2X technologies require always-on, high bandwidth connectivity and have positioned embedded hardware as an important means of enabling safety and compliance systems and improved rider experience.
  
• The ubiquitous tethered solution enabling smartphone-based rider abilities on electric motorcycles is the smartphone itself, which can fulfil bike-navigation, ride log, telematics, and performance analytics capabilities. While tethered connectivity is becoming the norm in other more price-sensitive and developing economies like India, Indonesia, and Vietnam, where affordable connectivity can be obtained through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi that balances cost and low-touch digital experience, riders still use tethered/connected innovations.
  
• For instance, Damon’s AI-enabled connected platform supports aftermarket adoption through plug-and-play telematics devices, mobile apps, and fleet dashboards. It allows retrofitting older motorcycles with predictive maintenance, GPS tracking, and rider safety services, extending connectivity beyond new OEM-built bikes.
  
• As such, commercial and delivery operators, and ride-hailing fleets have been able to retrofit their motorcycles with aftermarket telematics devices that provide intended built-in benefits for riders such as full GPS tracking, predictive maintenance, and driver behavior reporting for motorcycles that previously did not have these possibilities. Even though riders are using older motorcycles in their fleets, the telematics devices ensure that motorcycle riders have connected capabilities that also expand service revenues for telematics device companies.
  

Based on propulsion, the connected motorcycle market is bifurcated into ICE and electric. The ICE segment accounts for 73.4% share in 2024, as it is available in a wide range of price categories, from commuter to premium, allowing OEM to introduce connectivity at different affordability levels.

• ICE motorcycles, particularly in the mid-to-premium area, are seeing an increasing number of connected features, such as navigation, ride analytics, and ARAS integration. OEM is adding even more value based on analytics and connectivity, to be competitive with regulations tightening and the electric motorcycle slowly becoming the standard.
  
• Governments are implementing stricter emission norms and advanced safety systems, which is leading ICE motorcycle OEM to integrate connected telematics into the motorcycle's components so they can monitor maintenance, efficiency, and compliance. This trend allows ICE models to remain relevant whilst also developing the market in anticipation of electrification as a longer-term preference.
  
• Government subsidies and tax benefits and electric charging infrastructure investments are occurring in APAC, Europe, and North America to promote the use of electric two-wheelers, and this will enable the connected ecosystem to be more integrated.

High-speed cell-based connectivity underpins advanced information and assistance features for riders, fleet management and cloud-IoT connected services, increasing the level of connectivity and the ease and enjoyment of riding for both solo riders and commercial fleets.
  
• For example, motorcycle manufacturers are using mobile connectivity and the cloud to sync rider ride data, ride media, ride notifications, etc. This allows manufacturers to provide riders with smart dashboards, AI predictive analytics, predictive maintenance models, reducing reliance on embedded or proprietary hardware and systems, especially for mid-range and high-end motorcycles.
  
• Short-range connectivity (satellite, wi-fi, Bluetooth, etc.) supports V2V and V2I connectivity with physical and cloud-based systems. Rider safety in urban areas can be improved through notifications for blind spots, hazardous situations, and actions coordinated with traffic signals - none of which may rely on long-range mobile networks.
  
• Utilized more on motorcycles for low-latency safety alerts, collision warnings and smart city integration, dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) and cellular-V2X (C-V2X) systems can complement cellular communications to offer reliable communications with other vehicles, roadside units, and infrastructure in very dynamic traffic situations.
  
• In May 2025, Suzuki Motorcycle India has introduced the 2025 Access 125 scooter, which has a new top-end TFT variant called Ride Connect. TFT refers to a 4.2-inch TFT high-quality digital display, and Ride Connect enables smartphone connectivity, navigation, ride statistics, and notifications. This upgrade makes it more useful to the user experience, enhances the modern feel of the scooter interface, and keeps up with India’s growing connected two-wheeler market.
  

Based on end use, the connected motorcycle market is bifurcated into private and commercial. The private segment dominates with a share of 71.4% in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.9% till 2034; as most motorcycles worldwide are individually owned rather than fleet-operated, especially in Asia-Pacific and emerging markets, driving demand for personal connectivity features like navigation, ride analytics, and smartphone integration.

• Custom private riders are becoming more interested in smartphones, apps, and embedded connectivity. Riders seek navigation, ride analytics and media streaming and OEM's building customizable dashboards, ARAS features and OTA updates, and improving rider experience, safety and engagement are facilitating the premiumization of motorcycles in urban and suburban markets.
  
• Delivery, logistics, and ride-hailing businesses increasingly acquiring connected motorcycles to help monitor in real-time, optimize routes, and provide predictive maintenance. Subscription-based telematics platforms provide more cost efficiencies, improved uptime and reduced operational risks leading to credible growth opportunities in commercial mobility.
  
• Commercial operators are using connectivity to monitor driver behaviors, geofence, and closed regulatory standards. Connectivity helps improve the acceptance rate of accidents, improves service reliability, and increases fleet performance, and supports investment in short-range, cellular, and aftermarket connectivity technologies being used in all forms of mobility systems globally (developed and emerging).
  
• In April 2025, MTN unveiled a quick 2-hour motorbike delivery service in Johannesburg, allowing customers to receive packages with SIM cards and home internet connectivity in a speedy manner. The service utilizes connected motorcycles to provide quick and effective delivery and improve overall customer satisfaction.
