The technological backbone is provided by the Mobile Telecommunications Ltd network meaning that the tracking and wifi service is available and effective country-wide.
MTC Chief Commercial Officer, Melvin Angula, said “The importance of telematics and telecommunications in tomorrow’s vehicles cannot be overstated. Consumers are increasingly becoming aware of how connected technologies can enhance their lives and our task as a forward-thinking organisation is to evolve in tandem with market expectations.”
