Across Europe, Most New Cars Are DAB+ Equipped
Posted: 17 Feb 2022 07:08 AM PST
https://www.radioworld.com/global/across-europe-most-new-cars-are-dab-equipped
According to figures released by WorldDAB, 95% of new cars sold in key
European markets were equipped with DAB+ receivers as standard in 2021. The
organization credited this level of support to the Electronic
Communications Code (EECC), which requires all new car radios sold in the
European Union after December 2020 to be capable of receiving digital
terrestrial radio.
On a country-by-country level, the percentage of new cars equipped with
DAB+ receivers ranged from 90% in France to 100% in Italy and Norway.
Norway began shuttering its FM networks in 2017.
In Switzerland, which is set to switch off FM in favor of DAB+ by year-end
2024, 99% of new cars had DAB+ receivers as standard. The U.K. and Belgium
were both at 98%.

In total, 13 of the top 15 car sales markets in Europe have 90% or more of
new cars sold with DAB+ receivers as standard equipment. The other two top
15 markets, Sweden and Portugal, were not included in WorldDABâ€Ös report.
The findings echo the Edison Car Buyers Survey figures released last year,
which showed that 90% of survey respondents in Europe expected a DAB+
receiver to be standard equipment in any new car they purchased.
