Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Jio showcased its end-to-end capability to enable a connected car ecosystem at the Auto Expo 2020 in Greater Noida on Wednesday.
The telco, which is already the leader in the Indian telecom sector, has developed its multi-sided platform to cover areas such as route management, data storage and management, driver management, insights and data analytics, and vehicle telematics and diagnostics.
Additionally, Jio on the first day of the auto industry-focused event demonstrated a “Future-Ready Digital Expressway” at the Auto Expo that included samples of automotive connectivity solutions, certified devices and hardware, integrated cloud and services platforms, and India-wide services and support network.
The hardware that Jio exhibited at the Auto Expo included Internet of Things (IoT) grade e-SIM support in multiform factor as well as narrowband IoT (NBIoT) modules and LTE-based tracking devices. The company also showcased an on-board diagnostics (OBD) compatible telematics device.
