localized driving experience
Telenav, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNAV), a leading provider of
connected-car and location-based services, announces that SAIC,
China’s largest automotive group, has selected Telenav’s VIVID® Nav
solution for its overseas markets in Europe, Southeast Asia and
Australia-New Zealand. VIVID Nav will provide navigation and
location-based services for SAIC’s battery-powered electric (BEV)
and internal-combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in those markets.
Telenav’s VIVID Nav solution will provide SAIC customers with a
connected navigation experience that is designed for Europe, SE
Asia and ANZ, leveraging over ten years of Telenav’s experience
serving local market needs around the world. The solution will
address BEV and ICE vehicle needs in markets with both left and
right-hand driving.
VIVID Nav delivers a seamless cloud-connected and onboard
navigation experience, optimized to provide end users with the most
up-to-date map and online content, while minimizing the amount of
mobile data used to reduce SAIC’s costs. Its responsive and
flexible routing engine allows users to choose from multiple
routing options, including the fastest and eco-friendly routes.
VIVID Nav’s powerful search capabilities make finding
destinations, businesses and other points-of-interest (POI)
intuitive and user friendly. The contextual and semantic one-box
search can be tailored for the specific local needs of SAIC’s
customers in each of those markets. VIVID Nav also incorporates
convenient EV-specific features like providing users with a range
projection on the map based on the current state of charge of their
vehicle’s battery. Customers are also able to search for charge
stations and add them to their routes using a variety of filters
including the type of charging supported and the availability of
nearby amenities like shops and restaurants.
“VIVID Nav gives us a single solution for both our BEV and ICE
vehicles that is tailored for the local needs in each of these
overseas markets,” said Tang ShengHao, Product Manager at SOIMT.
SOIMT is a subsidiary of SAIC Group, responsible for SAIC’s
overseas connected car services.
“We are honored to be chosen by China’s largest auto group for
their expansion into markets in Europe, Southeast Asia and ANZ,”
said Manfred Fu, GM of Telenav China. “I am confident that our
decade-long experience serving the local needs around the world is
going to benefit SAIC’s customers in these markets.”
