Huawei finally reliases its connected car dream with the joint work it has done with French base PSA and the release of the DS7. Maker of Citroen and Peugeot cars, PSA went into a collaboration for a connected car project back in November 2017 with Huawei and within months a fully commercial car is now available.

The Huawei Connected Car solution is supported by its IoT platform, OceanConnect. This solution offers business enablement suites via cloud services over the company’s worldwide public cloud or Huawei-carrier jointly operated clouds. It supports travel services, car maintenance services, fleet management, shared leasing, user-based insurance (UBI), and more. Through the solution, automobile manufacturers can also take advantage of valuable data assets, build up their ecosystems, and accelerate business transformation.

Coming to the Chinese market the DS 7 from DS Automobiles will be the first connected vehicle from the company and made available globally after the Auto China exhibition on April 25.
