Not all meetings run to plan. Sometimes things can take longer than expected, which means you‘ll be late for your next appointment. Your car can help you out by sending your current location and arrival time to your colleagues. That way, everyone is kept informed and you can concentrate on driving.

Skiing is great fun, but the ride home in a cold car is usually not so pleasant. If your vehicle is heated in advance, the experience will be much nicer. Simply activate your heating by app before you set off down the last slope. Enjoy your drive!
