Vehicle to everything (V2X) is an emerging technology for intelligent connected vehicles. It could enable connections among vehicles, pedestrians, road infrastructures, etc. However, the potential application scenarios from a user-centric perspective have not been examined systematically. In this study, we summarized four common application scenarios of V2X technology based on a literature review. Our review found three major types of potential scenarios: beyond-visual-range (BVR) information presentation, public service, and inter-vehicle coordination. Whereas the BVR information presentation is quite clear in their everyday usage, more detailed user-oriented research is needed to describe the concrete circumstances of the rest two categories. This study is one step further toward a thorough understanding of the scenarios of V2X technology and would imply the future design and study of V2X.
