A sign of things to come
Telogis and Nissan Europe have partnered to offer next-generation connected vehicle technologies and services to Nissan commercial customers in Europe. At this stage, it is not known when the agreement will flow through to Australian vehicles and fleets.
The offering will connect customers’ vehicles, people and the work that is being done, helping to make drivers safer, providing higher levels of service, while improving sustainability and operational efficiency.
“The time has come for Nissan commercial customers to benefit from the visibility and operational intelligence they gain by connecting their business,” said Philippe Guerin-Boutaud, corporate vice-president, Global LCV Business Unit, Nissan Motor Co, Ltd.
“From empowering workers on the road and in the field to help them be safer and more efficient, to optimising daily delivery routes, NissanConnect Fleet will have a transformational effect on the way Nissan customers do business.”
The introduction of the NissanConnect Fleet service forms part of Nissan’s ‘Intelligent Mobility’ strategy, which the brand said is guiding product and technology development to create a safer and more sustainable future.
Utilising hardware that has been factory-fit or installed by a certified dealer, NissanConnect Fleet technologies connect the vehicle to the Telogis Mobile Resource Management (MRM) software platform. It receives and analyses proprietary data from each vehicle including driver and vehicle performance history, and turns it into actionable information to help companies of all sizes make more informed business decisions.
Once connected, Telogis software will optimise and automate work and processes to drive safety, productivity, efficiency and sustainability in businesses of all sizes.
The offering will be available in Europe this autumn supporting the following initial vehicles:
- All crossover range Qashqai, X-Trail and Juke
- Medium-compact car Pulsar
- New Navara One Ton Pick-up
- NV200 light commercial vehicles (LCV)
- Cabstar medium-duty vehicles
- Nissan electric vehicles (EVs) — LEAF and e-NV200
