AT&T 4G LTE Service Soon to Be In Million of GM Vehicles
AT&T today announced an agreement with OnStar, LLC, a subsidiary of General Motors Corporation (GM), to wirelessly deliver an enhanced suite of safety, security, diagnostic and infotainment services to most Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles, beginning in 2014 in the United States and Canada. The multi-year agreement calls for AT&T to enable millions of GM cars, trucks and crossovers with 4G LTE mobile Internet access, providing the latest wireless technology to power GM’s safety and security services offered by OnStar, as well as a new suite of infotainment services like streaming audio, web access, applications, and even video for backseat passengers. AT&T will also enable GM’s in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspots and voice calling services.
By adding a fast, reliable and built-in 4G LTE connection specifically designed for vehicles, we can drive innovation to enhance virtually every aspect of the driving and riding experience from safety and diagnostics to entertainment to integration of emerging third-party applications, said Mary Chan, president, Global Connected Consumer, General Motors. Through this built-in 4G LTE connection we have the opportunity to reinvent the mobile experience inside a vehicle.
