Abstract

The paper aims at elaborating on pricing and business models for forthcoming innovative ITS devices, limiting its scope in particular to in-vehicle driving assistance systems and suggesting the various possible innovation and pricing strategies with theoretical discussions. The methodology is based on a comprehensive literature review of the major contributions made by the fields of managerial economics and management sciences to the study of pricing strategies and practices and, in particular, the pricing of innovative goods or services, in order to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the various schools of thought. The paper also gathers and analyzes the available data on two innovative navigation and safety devices for cars, namely ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) and navigation systems, in order to put forward an initial interpretation.It concludes that there is no formula or even a vague method for determining "acceptable" price levels or "trigger points". There are two options, i.e. disruptive innovation which is by essence very risky and incremental innovation with each major model renewal.
