MILAN and IRVINE, Calif., June
21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- CalAmp (Nasdaq: CAMP), a
connected intelligence company helping businesses and people track,
monitor and recover vital assets with real-time visibility and
insights, today announced its subsidiary, LoJack® Italia, has
partnered with the Koelliker Group, a leader in the import and
sales of electric, connected and intelligent vehicles. Through the
partnership, all SERES 3 C-SUV electric vehicles, recently
launched by Koelliker, will be pre-installed with
LoJack® Connect cutting-edge connected car intelligence
and services that encourage better driving habits and enhance
vehicle safety for more secure and sustainable mobility.
The LoJack Connect app serves as a virtual assistant that
allows SERES 3 drivers to simplify daily mobility and maintain
their car by staying informed about the location, status and
operation. And if a crash occurs or the car is stolen, real-time
assistance via their smartphone is available in those critical
moments to get them back on the road.
In the event of a collision, CrashBoxx® crash response
services deliver real-time crash notification to loved ones and
immediate assistance to the motorist from LoJack's 24/7 Security
Operations Center providing support with emergency response, towing
and accident statement forms. Automated incident reports document
crash data on force, impact, and damage, helping to facilitate
investigations and claims processing.
For preventative maintenance, LoJack Connect delivers automated
alarms of potential mechanical failures and reminders of
maintenance deadlines or tire rotations. These features will help
keep the SERES 3 in top condition, thus avoiding costly breakdowns
and improving vehicle safety.
With the Driving Style feature, SERES 3
drivers receive a score indicating their driving behavior based on
an analysis of telematics data. These intelligent insights
encourage drivers to develop safer driving habits, contribute to
road safety and help reduce environmental impact.
In addition to vehicle location, kilometers driven and routes
traveled, the Family Mode feature alerts drivers when the
car driven by family member enters or leaves a pre-set area, such
as a workplace parking lot or school. When parked and a preset
geo-fenced area is activated around it, the Vehicle
Protection feature will notify the driver of any
unanticipated movements if the car is towed or stolen and the
Security Operations Center will assist in recovery.
The LoJack partnership also provides Koelliker with a dedicated
SmartDealer portal, which notifies them when kilometer threshholds
are exceeded, tire rotation is needed or a low battery alert goes
off. With these connected intelligence insights, Koelliker can
offer their customers maintenance or service to help keep the SERES
3 in top condition, avoiding costly breakdowns and improving
vehicle and road safety.
"We chose to distribute the SERES 3 for its innovative
driver-based designed and extraordinarily reliability," says
Luca Ronconi, managing
director of Koelliker. "The collaboration with LoJack Italia, a
company with extensive and in-depth experience in telematics
solutions and innovative services in the automotive world, further
enhances the driver experience of this new generation of electric,
connected and intelligent SUVs."
"This partnership marks the first electric vehicle installations
of our connected car solutions and we are thrilled to be a part of
making mobility smarter and safer," said Maurizio Iperti, senior vice president of
LoJack EMEA and managing director of LoJack Italia. "Our LoJack
Connect and SmartDealer technology gives SERES 3 drivers the
real-time support they need at the most critical times and ensures
a more comfortable, safe and sustainable driving experience."
