Personal vehicle ownership is important to 92% of consumers and nearly half view their vehicle as a third space; 62% predict their vehicle will eventually become an extension of their living room or office
DTS, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of entertainment technology company Xperi Inc. (NYSE: XPER), today released its new connected car report, “Vehicle Ownership and its Role as a Third Space: Alive, Well and Enduring.” The report confirmed the importance of personal vehicle ownership to today’s consumers and reveals that car owners continue to view their vehicle as an important third space, a place to take time alone, to relax and escape the stresses of home or work. Furthermore, as traditional ideas about both living and work spaces have evolved, many car owners see a future where their personal vehicle can become an extension not only of their living room, but also of their office.
Based on the findings of a survey of 3,217 U.S. consumers at least 18 years old who currently own or lease a vehicle, the report shows that 92% of respondents consider their personal vehicle important, with luxury/ultra-luxury owners and Gen Z indexing the highest for viewing their vehicles as a third space (after the first space of home and second space of work). The report also offers key insights into why consumers are spending time in their vehicles, what entertainment choices they are opting for and how automakers can make those third spaces better for their customers.
“There is heartening news for automakers in this consumer report: vehicle ownership is here to stay and its function as something beyond a mode of transportation is important to today’s consumers, whether they choose to be alone, to relax or de-stress in their vehicle, listen to music or watch videos when the car is parked,” said Jeff Jury, senior vice president and general manager of connected car for Xperi.
As the vehicle becomes a more centralized hub for entertainment, consumers will be looking for additional options to help them on their journeys. 88% of respondents noted that they listen to audio in the car, which has remained relatively steady over the past two years. Video on the other hand, has seen a healthy increase in usage. From 31% in 2022 to 47% in 2024, respondents stated that more drivers and passengers are watching video in the car. Additionally, respondents indicated that improved comfort and personalization, as well as having as many entertainment choices on their vehicle’s infotainment system as on their TV or mobile device, are among the features that would make their vehicle a better third space.
“In this context, the ability to intelligently bring mixed content into the vehicle and present it in an easy to find and digestible way for drivers and passengers is becoming more important. And, the fact that automakers’ key future customers (Gen Z) index the highest for viewing their vehicles as a third space, indicates that OEMs might want to focus on the features consumers say will make that third space better to ensure that personal vehicle ownership endures for the long term,” concluded Jury.
Key report takeaways:
Personal vehicle ownership is here to stay
The vehicle is a third space
A better third space
Car owners are using their vehicle to de-stress
Audio is most important in the vehicle third space
