Gentex Corporation, US-based manufacturer of automotive automatic-dimming rear-view mirrors and automotive electronics has expanded the coverage of its vehicle-integrated tolling solution to include toll roads in Canada and Mexico.


The Gentex integrated toll module (ITM) utilises the 139 TransCore universal toll module technology, which Gentex integrates into its electronic rear-view mirrors that automakers can integrate into new vehicles. It enables motorists to drive on all US toll roads, and now toll roads in Canada and Mexico, without a traditional toll tag on the windshield. In addition, motorists would no longer need multiple toll tags for different regions of the country or have to manage multiple toll accounts.

Automakers can also combine ITM account registration, payments and functionality settings with existing vehicle-integrated telematics services.
