What You Need to Know about Telematics and Emerging Vehicle Technology
What are the technologies vehicle manufacturers are investing in, and what are the key drivers for those technologies? What about the connected car? And where is the autonomous vehicle?  Which technologies are gaining traction, and which will be forgotten by next year? In other words, which should my company and I be paying attention to so that we can deliver the goods needed to support them? This discussion gives an overview of our industry and related topics as we explore technologies being developed and released across the globe.

In this session you’ll learn the answers to these questions:
  • What coming technologies do I need to know about as a shop owner, manager, or technician?
  • How will those coming vehicle technologies impact me?
  • What do I need to do to be ready for them?

Of course, when it comes to game-changing technologies, none have the potential to disrupt the auto care industry more in the coming years than telematics. The often misunderstood and rapidly evolving technology has the potential to drive business for shops, especially as it relates to vehicle diagnostics. This session will also explain what telematics means in relation to the auto care industry and what OE and aftermarket offerings are available. It will cover the major challenges the technology presents and most importantly, the big opportunities telematics creates for repairers.
