2010 Volvo XC70
The 2010 Volvo XC70 will be shown at the Chicago Auto Show on February 11, 2010 with the industry�s first Internet connected Rear Seat Entertainment System with Windows XP, WiFi and a 500G hard drive. This innovative product, while still only in the conceptual phase, will allow customers to surf the Internet, download applications to personalize their Volvo to their lifestyle while enjoying video and unlimited music download using a digital touch screen.
Volvo Cars of North America has partnered with Azentek Corporation and Gracenote� to explore the possibility of bringing this revolutionary product to the market. The Chicago Auto Show demonstration will optimize this leading edge new technology by leveraging the turbocharged speeds of Sprint 4G via its new Overdrive� 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot.*
�The RSEi-500 has set a new standard for the Rear Seat Entertainment industry. This fully integrated Multimedia RSE allows customers to surf the Internet, enjoy Mobile TV and watch videos, while boasting the industry�s first interactive audio library and video exploration experience enabled by Gracenote and its partners, all from the back seat of their Volvo XC70,� said Jack Lawson, Product Manager at VCNA. �These technological properties are what we know appeal to the discerning electronics buyers and owners of Volvo vehicles.�
Volvo Cars, in teaming with Gracenote and its partners, provides the most comprehensive in-vehicle music and video experience in the industry. Taking advantage of the broadband connection and Gracenote�s comprehensive automotive and server solutions, passengers will for the first time be able to navigate their music collections by mood, and display lyrics in North America, artist biographies and reviews as music is playing. Additionally, Gracenote is powering Volvo�s Music Service which allows users to explore and download as much music as they desire as part of the bundled entertainment solution. The system can also identify and retrieve information for music currently playing on the AM/FM/Satellite radio and then download those tracks directly to the entertainment system. Users can also display cover art, synopses and cast details for DVD movies, explore additional video content online and have a celebrity artist voice of choice interact with the user during the music experience.
�We are pleased to enable Volvo with the latest Gracenote technologies for music and video recognition, as well as online media exploration, recommendation, and Gracenote-powered music download services for Volvo�s next generation of entertainment systems. This implementation sets an entirely new standard for an in-vehicle entertainment system and what is possible with Internet connectivity in the car,� said Bill Fleck, Head of Automotive Sales, Americas at Gracenote.
