DAB receivers near 150 million worldwide as new data released on World Radio Day 2025
On World Radio Day, 13 February, WorldDAB is releasing its latest infographic, which highlights the ongoing global growth of DAB+. The updated graphic shows device sales now nearing the 150 million milestone, with the fast-growing markets of France and Australia leading the way with sales of receivers now over 10 million each, alongside the well-established DAB+ auto market. Sales in eleven core markets now total 145,195,000, and almost all new cars across Europe come with DAB+ as standard. The infographic is published by WorldDAB — the global industry forum for DAB+ digital radio — on 13 February to mark UNESCO’s World Radio Day, reflecting broadcast radio’s vital role as a relatively free and portable public safety net during emergencies. This year’s theme is “radio and climate change.”
