F1 car maker Mclaren is remaining tightlipped on the plans and refusing to reveal how the system will work

IEEE Spectrum notes that some luxury carmakers are already using sensors such as cameras to catch driver fatigue in time to stop accidents,

cars and fleet vehiclesnd sold it to fleet operators and car makers like Porsche. Those companies, in turn, typically made it available through smartphone apps or dashboard consoles.

when that comes. anfield wouldn say how much Inrix charges fleets and car makers, only that it was a minuscule sum compared to the overall cost of operating a vehicle. he charge for the service will be paid by the OEMS original equipment manufacturers for the first few years;

'There is a risk that the other automakers will be pushed further into the arms of Google, 'said Richard Windsor an independent financial analyst who tracks major tech players.

At a later stage, the carmakers will invite private equity firm General Atlantic to join the consortium as an investor and potential mediator

HERE is the leading supplier of digital maps for most of the world's top carmakers,

#Will car makers become internet companies? Connected vehicles will create a new business opportunity proving the internet-based mobile services to the driver.

This will combine car makers with electronics firms and software services suppliers. No single sector will be able to capitalise on this market, due to its diversity and the range of technologies required.
