GM introduces MyLink infotainment system

There is a new generation of car buyers who don’t want to settle for mass market radio, said Rick Scheidt, vice president of Chevrolet Marketing. Smart interface design allows drivers to take advantage of mobile communications technology while the phone remains safely stowed.

“Chevrolet MyLink is the next logical step for in-vehicle connectivity,” said Karl Stracke, vice president for Global Product Engineering. “MyLink leverages the mobile broadband capability and the sophisticated, online services made possible by today’s smart phones.”

The debut of Chevy MyLink extends the OnStar experience from safety and security to information and entertainment by seamlessly integrating the capability of a smartphone into the vehicle so that hand-held phones may be safely stowed while driving. It has grown from primarily offering automatic crash notification and security features to include remote vehicle diagnostics, turn-by-turn navigation and the ability to slow down stolen vehicles.
