WirelessCar works with the entire telematics network through a wide partner network of wireless providers, call centres, content providers, dealers, government institutions, and others to: explore leading industrial technology; positively get involved in industrial regulation and policies standardisation; and make continuous progress on business model development and innovation.

WirelessCar completes the Audi connect service by providing a call centre client enabled by the open framework Next Generation telematics Pattern (NGTP), bringing more flexibility and sustainability to future development.

WirelessCar services, together with Audi’s technology, will allow customers in China to access location-based services. Drivers can contact call centres and get their point of interest pushed to the navigation system in their car.

“The Audi project is another success for the global strategy of WirelessCar”, says Martin Rosell, managing director of WirelessCar. “We have achieved remarkable results on the Chinese market, now we carry the responsibility as an industry leader to develop the telematics Technology even further and move the whole market forward.”
