Driving DAB forward

Earlier in the year I'd read various reports of new car manufacturers coming on board and now fitting digital radios to their fleet. In fact the rate of growth looks pretty impressive - it was widely reported that by April 2014, 55% of new cars came with DAB installed as standard. This compares to just over 37% in the previous year. While at this point it may not be at the lofty levels that were once targeted, this growth is showing that the car industry is now well and truly on board with the UK's digital plans.
