Renault to install ONDAS Satellite Radio

TISA member Renault has entered into an agreement with ONDAS Media to install satellite radio receivers into its vehicles across Europe.

Nissan, BMW already signed similar contracts. Satellite radio is already very popular in the USA and offers an opportunity for the broadcast of TPEG traffic and travel information, alongside bearers such as DAB / DMB and IP / HTTP connections.

"Renault and Ondas have announced the signing of an agreement to offer satellite radio receivers in Renault Group vehicles sold in Europe from 2012. This new product will allow customers to benefit from a vast range of digital programmes, topical and advertising-free, and give them access to services in areas such as traffic information, security, vehicle management or even video for passengers. Renault is thus reaffirming its policy of strategic agreements for on-board multimedia, aiming at increasing the availability of innovative, useful and high-quality products and services."
