About the Report

In its inaugural year, Quu’s annual In-Vehicle Visuals Report offers a snapshot of radio’s place in dashboard displays today. With so much listening happening in cars, we must identify our strengths and weaknesses.

This report intends to provide the broadcast industry with new research. As radio’s status evolves in future years, we will track it. All the data from this report is available at QuuReport.com and we partnered with experts to provide analysis and commentary on radio’s in-dash opportunities and challenges.

Methodology: Collecting and Analyzing the Data

Data for this report was collected by an independent contractor tasked with auditing in-dash systems in America’s 100 top-selling new vehicles. To gauge radio’s in-dash standing, each dashboard was carefully analyzed for audio entertainment features and visual components, including radio text, artist, and song information. Photos were taken, and a detailed, standardized questionnaire was completed. Data was collected from new vehicles onsite at various auto dealerships between November 2023 and January 2024.

Independent broadcast radio researcher Doug Hyde and industry experts Fred Jacobs, Paul Jacobs, Joe D’Angelo, and Mike McVay, reviewed the research and offered analysis and perspectives on radio’s in-dashboard potential, challenges, and opportunities for development.
