2. Preventive assistance: In case of vehicle malfunction, Maruti바카라�s customer care will contact the owner

3. Tracking: Users will be able to track the location of the vehicle. Also includes geo fencing that alerts the owner when the car goes out of a specified area

6. Vehicle status: Can report status of seat belts, aircon, fuel level & odometer.

The telematics solution is available for both existing and new Nexa customers. Such connected services can be particularly useful in case a car is used by more than one driver. That said, features like driver behaviour report, live vehicle tracking and preventive assistance can come in handy even for those who drive their cars themselves.
