Connected Car, 7207 Delphi’s plug-and-play connectivity device, connects into an OBDII port on any vehicle sold in the US from 1996 onwards and allows consumers to quickly lock and unlock their vehicle’s doors, as well as locate, track and even monitor their vehicles through a smartphone app or the internet. Delphi has teamed up with 1984 Verizon Wireless to ensure data transmitted through the device and via the internet remains secure and encrypted, allowing users to safely lock their vehicles remotely, track their cars, monitor overall vehicle status, diagnose the engine’s health, receive alerts for driving behaviour and vehicle performance issues, and set up geofences.

“Drivers can now easily buy a connectivity device that plugs into most vehicles produced over the past sixteen years, instantly furnishing seamless interaction and connectivity inside and outside the vehicle,” said Jeffrey Owens, Delphi chief technology of cer. “Our device will help keep vehicles secure and operating optimally.”

The Delphi connectivity system’s key fob service operates over the Verizon Wireless network or via Bluetooth to remotely lock or unlock doors, open the trunk, start or stop the engine and operate a panic horn on selected vehicles.
