Visteon debuts infotainment Technology in 2020 VW Nivus Crossover - Seite 2

Visteon’s connected infotainment innovation supporting the VW Play system represents a single element of the automotive technology supplier’s broad line-up of cockpit electronics, offering global OEMs like VW the latest cutting-edge in-car innovation. Visteon’s product line-up incorporates digital instrument clusters, information displays, domain controller platforms and advanced driver assistance systems.

Matheus Arantes, head of electrical engineering, Volkswagen Brazil, said: “VW Play starts a new era in connectivity, content streaming and services for Volkswagen. This is the result of teamwork and a reliable partnership between Volkswagen and Visteon, with a total focus on the end consumer – who can enjoy a new digital experience.”

The secular trends behind the growth of cockpit electronics prior to the pandemic should largely remain intact and continue to drive growth for the industry, which, according to Lawande, is why Visteon’s strategy of vertical integration and in-house development of new technology to reduce cost is even more appropriate and relevant in the post-COVID-19 world.

VW's Nivus SUV will be available in Brazil this June, branching out to other South American markets by the end of the year.
