Beijing: China's private
carmaker Chery Automobile Co. plans to develop cars that enable
drivers to control the door, trunk, and headlight functions through
their mobile phones without compromising their safety.
Chery's Vice General Manager Chen Anning said the carmaker has set
up a lab with South Korea's SK Telecom to study the application of
Mobile In Vehicle (MIV) telematics service.
The MIV service will also enable drivers to check driving
performance and get fuel-related information through the phones, the
China Daily reported Tuesday.
Chery is China's leading private carmaker. Its global sales hit
55,616 units in November, including 13,906 units sold overseas.
