6 THE MOBILE WORKSPACE Inspire your drivers productivity beyond their time in the office Our Sensus technology transforms every Volvo into a versatile mobile workspace, providing all of the tools and connectivity capabilities your drivers need to be more productive in the car. However, our philosophy is that being more productive should never be prioritised over safe driving. For this reason, our in-car controls are designed to make every technology completely natural to use. With an intuitive Touch Screen interface, steering wheel buttons and voice control, your drivers can stay completely focused on what matters: the road ahead. APPLE CARPLAY AND ANDROID AUTO Access the familiar features and services of a paired smartphone easily and safely through Sensus Connect s intuitive controls.

VOLVO ON CALL FOR DRIVERS Using a smartphone or other device, your drivers can check and control their cars remotely. For example, to activate the heating or pre-load the navigation with your next destination

7 TAKING BACK TIME SPENT IN THE CAR What could your drivers achieve with an extra week s worth of free time every year? Because that s our vision to give Volvo drivers back a week of their time every single year from We will achieve this partially through in-car productivity technologies that simplify daily life for example, voice control enabling drivers to type messages and control apps without being distracted from the road and partially through semi-autonomous driving features that make every car journey less demanding on drivers. In time, we even hope to be able to give you back every journey with a fully autonomous car. A UNIQUE APPROACH TO AUTONOMOUS DRIVING In 2013, we began testing self-driving technologies. Now, we are developing our autonomous drive cars with help from Swedish families who are contributing to our ongoing Drive Me project by feeding back their impressions to Volvo Cars engineers. We hope to learn how this new technology will fit into our everyday lives. Will it make travelling less stressful? Will it give people freedom to be productive in the car? Drive Me is something unique to Volvo Cars a thorough, human-centric and collaborative approach to autonomous driving. Already today, your drivers can experience semi-autonomous driving using Pilot Assist a feature that is available on many of our best-selling fleet models
