IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DRIVENOW CAR-SHARING SERVICE.

“The Joy of Driving” meets “Rent a Car”
For DriveNow, the car-sharing service of BMW and Sixt, iteratec implemented the in-car car-sharing client on an Android platform and the backend services on the ConnectedDrive platform. The backend connects the booking and billing systems of the joint venture partners. BMW thus expands its portfolio with a solution for urban mobility.

Car-sharing services by BMW and MINI

In order to provide the car-sharing service, BMW and MINI vehicles must be fitted with a car-sharing client to monitor and manage vehicle usage, and a distributed service infrastructure must be set up between the participating partners to process vehicle bookings.

Our solution

iteratec provided support with the design and implemented the car-sharing client for BMW on an Android platform, as well as the car-sharing backend services as part of the ConnectedDrive platform.

The usage process is controlled via external devices (vehicle, RFID reader, LED) connected via the Android platform, whilst the booking and billing systems of the joint venture partners are integrated via the tried-and-tested ConnectedDrive platform.
