Intelematics has connected its one millionth vehicle to its Australian-built emergency call platform, marking a broader reach for connected safety services in vehicles sold in Australia and New Zealand. The Melbourne-based company provides eCall and related connected vehicle services that link drivers to emergency assistance after a crash or through a manual SOS function. eCall systems automatically detect a crash, connect the vehicle to emergency responders, and send location and incident data. The one million vehicle milestone comes as connected safety features become more prominent in the local market. In 2020, the Toyota Yaris Cross and Lexus IS sedan became the first vehicles to use Intelematics services including eCall, a manual SOS button and stolen vehicle tracking.
