AT&T saw a connected car onboarding pace double that of the connected tablets pace. At the end of the first quarter of 2016, AT&T counted more than 8 million connected cars on its network and connected more than 50% of the new connected cars in the US. Verizon’s recent acquisitions of connected car technology companies Telogis and Fleetmatics also reflects this increased focus by wireless companies on connected cars.
