Future of Opel infotainment: New generation Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro systems make their debut in the Insignia flagship. |
Seamless connectivity has become a “must-have” for modern
automobiles. Customers nowadays expect to be able to use online services
while driving. Opel has received many prizes, such as the “Connected
Car Award”, for its major contributions to these developments. Their
rapid growth is predicted to accelerate well into the next decade. The
Rüsselsheim brand has prepared itself for this next phase of
connectivity and in-car entertainment with a new generation of
infotainment systems. They will make their debut later this year in the
Insignia flagship model range.
The new Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro infotainment systems of
the Insignia will consolidate Opel’s position as a leading player in
infotainment and connectivity. The systems are not only state-of-the-art
in terms of functionality, they are also stylish and intuitive to use.
Customers enjoy a large colour touchscreen, up to eight inches in size.
Additionally, drivers benefit from a high-resolution, clearly arranged
Driver Information Cluster that with the Multimedia Navi Pro can be
enhanced by an optional head-up display.
Whether connecting by conventional technology such as Bluetooth or
USB, or by state-of-the-art phone integration via Apple CarPlay or
Android Auto (which Opel was one of the first carmakers to introduce)
the Insignia’s new infotainment systems extend Opel’s leadership in
in-car entertainment and connectivity. In addition to AM/FM radio as
standard, the top sound quality of DAB+ is available as an option. Up to
two smartphones can be paired simultaneously.
The top-level Multimedia Navi Pro represents a new generation of Opel
on-board navigation systems for the future. New features include
connected navigation services for optimum points of interest and
destination searches, as well as Live Traffic, real-time fuel prices,
parking information according to the destination and online map updates.
The additional comfort offered by 3D-map navigation, continuous zoom
and smooth scrolling make each journey relaxing and enjoyable.
In the connected state (which requires a tethered smartphone), Live
Traffic aggregates traffic information from multiple sources. Flow and
conditions are updated in near real-time and integrated into routing.
This provides more accurate and timely alerts as well as improved
navigation routing. Additionally, Live Traffic shows which parts of the
route are affected by delays and what kind of incident may be the cause.
For ease of use, the newly designed Human Machine Interface of
Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro features an intuitive layout with
direct access to main domains (e.g. audio, phone, navigation) via the
home screen. The tablet-like controls and swipe-gestures are ergonomic
and simple to use. The driver can also operate the infotainment system
via controls on the steering wheel. The Multimedia Navi Pro system can
be additionally operated by embedded voice control.
To enable the driver to fully harmonise with the Insignia, the
next-generation Multimedia Navi Pro infotainment system offers
personalisation through user profiles. Up to five drivers can define
their own profiles, allowing them to save numerous adjustments from
climate-control settings to their preferred equalisation for the speaker
system. Favourite destinations, playlists and points of interests are
all stored according to the personalised profile, enabling the driver to
concentrate on their journey. Future evolutions of the personalisation
feature will include personalised search and routing, based on
individual driving patterns.
The Insignia model range (Grand Sport, Sports Tourer, Country Tourer
and GSi) will be the first to feature Opel’s next generation of
infotainment systems.
With their stylish design and state-of-the-art functionality, as well as their intuitive operation, Multimedia and Multimedia Navi Pro offer high customer appeal. They will significantly strengthen Opel’s reputation as a leader in seamless automotive connectivity and in-car entertainment. The rollout will continue on additional models later this year and in 2019.
