Honda introduces ‘Talking Car’ for test drive customers

NEW DELHI: Honda Cars India on Wednesday announced the introduction of a unique concept of customer interface ‘Talking Car’ during the customer test drives at Honda dealerships.
The new interface enables the car to explain its own features while the customers take the test drive, enhancing their overall driving experience. Initially introduced for the all new CR-V, this interface will be extended for other Honda models shortly.
The Talking Car interface senses the trigger points from customer’s vehicle driving pattern and explains the key features. This application empowers the dealer staff to offer a standardised test drive experience in a more engaging manner demonstrating key highlights of the car during test drives.
The ‘Talking Car’ mobile application is installed on the digital device which is configured and paired with the car’s Audio System. Once the engine is started, the ‘Talking Car’ application takes inputs based on driving response and initiates explanation of the key features of the car. The voiceover explanation of the car ensures uniform information sharing with the driver. (AGENCIES)
