​WorldDAB celebrates automotive penetration

WorldDAB is highlighting the number of new cars in Europe that now ship with DAB+ as a standard feature.
 
“In the second half of 2020, over 80% of new cars in key European markets came with DAB+ radio as standard, a dramatic increase on the same period in 2019,” the organization stated in releasing a market report.
 
“This step-change reflects the impact of the European Electronic Communications Code (EECC), which, from December 2020, requires all new car radios in the EU to be capable of receiving digital terrestrial radio.”
