Legislation to power Brazil to #1 slot for telematics fitment says a new
SBD report
The Brazilian government has introduced legislation to tackle the very high
levels of vehicle crime through a program called SIMRAV. SBD have produced a
new report which provides an extensive overview of the progress made towards
the mandatory fitment of telematics systems to all new vehicles in Brazil as a
part of SIMRAV.
The attitudes of different car manufacturers in meeting this legislation are
analysed to show which are doing the minimum necessary to comply with the new
legislation and which are taking the opportunity to provide added-value
services to their customers. The report also reviews the roadblocks to
providing additional services in what is a relatively immature market for
telematics, and looks at the lessons learnt by the government during the 3 1/2
years they have spent developing SIMRAV.
