NaviDrive

The NaviDrive system is a voice-activated radio, CD player, telephone, and GPS automotive head unit, assembled in some models of the Citroën C8, Citroën C6, Citroën C5, Citroën C4, Citroën C3, and Peugeot vehicles.

Functions NaviDrive's main functions and characteristics are:

7-inch (18 cm) monochrome or color screen Complete GPS navigation system Radio, CD player with MP3 format and CD changer for 6 CDs Integrated GSM dual band handsfree telephone Text-to-speech during the reading of SMS messages Voice recognition Real-time traffic information (RDS-TMC)

Incident response In certain countries such as France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg, in the case of an accident, NaviDrive sends a text message containing the exact GPS position of the vehicle by pressing a button or when an airbag deploys, followed by a voice call to a special telephonic assistance platform which receives the position and the voice call. The platform determines the kind of urgency (e.g. medical, accident, fire), by asking a few questions and sends the appropriate emergency services to the exact location of the vehicle.
