2. Connected Vehicle Overview
Explosion and rapid adoption of “smart” connected devices in every aspect of digital consumers’ active lifestyles has fuelled their
expectations of connected vehicle capabilities and services. Today’s Connected Vehicle (vehicle telematics) is being enabled by
the convergence of wireless communications, GPS location technology, navigation services, embedded safety and security based
electronics, infotainment media providers, concierge services, software based personalization, social media influence, remote
control/notification and remote diagnostics technologies.
This consumer expectation coupled with advances in data communication is driving automotive OEMs to embrace Information and
Communication Technologies to enhance customer’s driving and ownership experiences, differentiate their products/brands and
extend customer/dealer/OEM interactions beyond traditional discrete vehicle purchase and service events. The convergence has
led to a multitude of new challenges and partnerships in this new ecosystem. Mastering the complexity of this multi-disciplinary
consumer, business, product, services and technology ecosystem is not suitable for traditional approaches or solutions.
