Tmap Mobility said on the 8th that vehicles equipped with its in-car navigation "Tmap Auto" have surpassed a cumulative 1 million units.
Tmap said its "integrated infotainment" strategy—combining the navigation system with an artificial intelligence (AI) agent, a range of applications, and content—proved effective. To meet differing requirements by brand, Tmap provided a "full-process customized service" from initial planning to feature development and quality control.
It also introduced, for the first time in the industry, an electric-vehicle-only route planning (RP) feature that combines remaining battery information with vehicle dynamic data, Tmap's real-time traffic information, and ADAS (advanced driver-assistance system) map data.
As a result, Tmap Auto has been chosen by more than 20 domestic and overseas car brands, including Volvo, Polestar, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, JLR, Maserati, Jeep, and BYD, the company said. In Korea, Renault and GM are adopting Tmap Auto across all models. Hyundai and Kia have also equipped some models with Tmap Auto.
Kim So-hee, Tmap Mobility's future mobility leader, said, "We will continue to work closely with automakers to advance integrated infotainment services optimized for the in-vehicle environment and further enhance the driving experience."
