An Electronic Logging Device (ELD) is an electronic tool designed to assist licensed truck drivers and private motor carriers in tracking and managing their hours of operation. ELDs are equipped with built-in gyroscopes, GPS tracking, and accelerometers to measure various parameters such as hours of service, drive time, duty status, real-time GPS location, engine load and speed, fuel efficiency, idling, mileage for diagnostics and fault codes, and safety-related events such as harsh braking or collisions.
The main components of an electronic logging device include a telematics unit, display, and other accessories such as connectors, cables, and mounting hardware. The telematics unit is an integrated onboard system responsible for wireless tracking, diagnostics, and communication to and from the vehicle. Electronic logging devices come in different form factors, including embedded and integrated versions, and are utilized in various types of vehicles, including light commercial vehicles, trucks, and buses.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have impacted the electronic logging device (ELD) market by increasing costs for imported communication chips, GPS modules, sensors, and display components used in telematics hardware. Trucking fleets, logistics operators, and commercial vehicle manufacturers in North America and Europe experience higher equipment costs and procurement delays due to cross-border component dependencies. At the same time, tariffs are stimulating local telematics production, diversification of component sourcing, and innovation in cost-effective integrated ELD systems, enhancing long-term supply chain stability.
The electronic logging device market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides electronic logging device market statistics, including the electronic logging device industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with an electronic logging device market share, detailed electronic logging device market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the electronic logging device industry. This electronic logging device market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The electronic logging device market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $14.87 billion in 2025 to $15.57 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early adoption in trucking compliance, reliance on manual logbooks, introduction of basic gps tracking systems, growth in commercial fleet operations, initial adoption of duty-status automation.
The electronic logging device market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $18.79 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for real-time fleet optimization, expansion of connected commercial vehicle ecosystems, rising regulatory compliance requirements, growth in predictive maintenance tools, development of integrated telematics-analytics platforms. Major trends in the forecast period include expansion of IoT-enabled fleet monitoring platforms, development of cloud-based eld compliance systems, adoption of autonomous safety and driver assistance data tools, advancement of AI-driven fleet analytics, integration of smart vehicle-telematics ecosystems.
The stringent government regulations surrounding electronic logging devices are expected to propel the market's expansion. Governments stand to gain from enhanced enforcement efficiency, data-driven decision-making capabilities, and the potential for standardized global standards. Penalties for non-compliance and incentives for voluntary adoption further encourage companies to invest in ELDs, fostering market growth. For instance, according to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, as of January 1, 2023, Ontario's Hours of Service regulation mandates the use of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) for most commercial motor vehicle drivers, excluding specific exemptions such as certain farm truck drivers. The regulation, applicable to drivers of trucks exceeding 4,500 kg requiring a Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR), ensures compliance with standardized logging practices and facilitates the enforcement of hours-of-service limits. Therefore, stringent government regulations around electronic logging devices are a driving force behind the market's growth.
Leading providers in the electronic logging device (ELD) market are focusing on developing innovations such as cloud-based ELD and telematics integration platforms to improve fleet compliance, driver safety, and operational visibility. A cloud-based ELD platform combines certified hours-of-service (HOS) logging with real-time GPS tracking, vehicle diagnostics, and automated reporting, unlike traditional paper logs or standalone ELDs that only record driving hours. For instance, in July 2024, Trucking Hub, a US-based transportation technology company, launched the Free ELD Solution integrated with its Carrier TMS platform. The product combines an FMCSA-certified electronic logging device with real-time telematics and fleet management tools, offering zero-cost hardware installation, seamless integration, and real-time compliance tracking. It enables small and mid-sized carriers to streamline operations, enhance regulatory compliance, and gain fleet-wide visibility through a single connected platform.
In March 2023, Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT), a US-based provider of telematics services, acquired Amodo for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition merges two significant telematics companies in Europe, enhancing their market presence. As a result, Amodo's customers will gain access to advanced telematics solutions focused on driver risk assessment, proactive crash and claims management, and behavior modification aimed at reducing driving risks. Amodo, based in Croatia, specializes in providing vehicle e-logbook services.
