According to 7207 Delphi Automotive, its new cloud-based automotive connectivity service for European consumers, Delphi Connect, provides a ground-breaking car-to-cloud/cloud-to-car connectivity service and works in most vehicles built after 1996.

To access the service, car owners simply plug the Delphi Connect module into the on-board diagnostics (OBD) port of their vehicle, which is usually located under the steering column. The service utilises a dedicated and secure cloud server to store data and provide access to certain vehicle information. Through a smartphone app or web portal, the user will have access to features including automatic vehicle health alerts, real time vehicle tracking, or remote warnings when a specified speed level is reached.

Delphi Connect will initially be launched in Germany and then rolled out in other European countries.
