Cloud-first Navigation, Powerful Search and Charge Station Advisor combine to deliver EV driving convenience

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Telenav^®, Inc., a leading provider of connected-car and location-based services, today announces that it has been selected by Xpeng Inc. (NYSE: XPEV), a leading smart electric vehicle (EV) company, to provide connected navigation service for Xpeng’s customers in Europe.

Telenav’s navigation solution, VIVID Nav, combines seamless cloud-connected and onboard navigation service with Charge Station Advisor, an intuitive charging station search function, to provide Xpeng’s customers ease and convenience in EV driving. The navigation solution also includes highly accurate and responsive routing features that give users multiple route options, including fastest and eco-friendly routes.
