Case Study: Volkswagen Group achieves next-generation in-vehicle navigation with TomTom

Volkswagen Group - Customer Case Study

Volkswagen Group sought to transform the in-car driving experience with a next-generation navigation solution for its new electric vehicles, aiming to make driving easier, safer, and reduce driver anxiety. To achieve this, Volkswagen’s software company, CARIAD, partnered with vendor TomTom to co-develop this advanced system.

TomTom provided its cloud-native navigation software and Real-Time Traffic service, which was integrated with CARIAD’s interface. The resulting solution delivers lane-level routing, accurate ETA calculations, and crucially, an EV routing service that finds optimal charging stops based on live traffic and charger availability. This collaboration with TomTom successfully redefined the driving experience, ensuring efficient, stress-free, and smarter journeys for drivers.
