Swedish carmaker Volvo will partner with Japan-based electronic equipment supplier Mitsubishi Electric to produce a new infotainment system for future Volvo cars.
Mitsubishi Electric Automotive Europe's Gothenburg technical centre in Sweden will develop the new navigation, audio-visual, connectivity and cabin control systems.
Under the deal, Mitsubishi Electric will provide the central module and be the main supplier for the overall infotainment system.
The company said that all intuitive technology that is available at the driver's fingertip is included in its recently established Sensus brand.
Sensus is the interface that promotes automatic communication with the car, connecting it to the driver's digital world.
Currently, the company aims to continue charging the infotainment system with intelligent content that provides the car owner easy, intuitive access to support, information and entertainment.
Volvo Car president and CEO Stefan Jacoby said that the extended co-operation with Mitsubishi Electric, who have been a supplier to the company for many years, paves the way for integrating new, user-friendly Infotainment and connectivity features in its cars.
