CloudCar and Parkopedia Offer Parking Services through Infotainment Platform
CloudCar and Parkopedia are joining hands to bring a cloud-based integration that will enable complete, predictive parking services through the infotainment platform. CloudCar is a provider of infotainment services for the automotive industry, and Parkopedia is a parking services provider,
CloudCar is also now authorized to provide Parkopedia’s parking services globally within their platform to OEMs as a fully integrated infotainment solution from a single supplier. Parkopedia’s full portfolio of services, covering off-street garage, on-street static and dynamic data, as well as transactions, prediction of parking availability, making reservations and paying for parking are now available through the CloudCar platform.
CloudCar further enriches the user parking experience through justDrive X, the automotive personal assistant recently announced at the Consumer Electronic Show. The Assistant simplifies infotainment communication using natural voice interaction. With justDriveā¢ X, the car determines the driver’s destination either after making a restaurant or event reservation, using a personalized profile, from an entry on the driver’s calendar, or from an active navigation. justDrive X then suggests optimal on or off-street parking options derived through the API integration with Parkopedia. For off-street parking, the driver can reserve and then pay for parking, all without taking their hands off the wheel.
