TomTom's telematics has partnered with IT company AttainIT to integrate electric car battery data and car booking software into the navigation giant's Webfleet fleet management system. The companies said the integration would help electric car-sharing companies to manage their vehicle fleets more efficiently. Italian car-sharing company Be Smart has adopted the technology, TomTom said. The company allows the customer to rent a vehicle by the minute via an app, drop off and pick up cars in city centre locations in Naples and Milan. The data allows the car-sharing company to check remaining battery power in each car at any given moment, activate cars remotely and track the car's location for accurate billing. "This is a strong example of how open-source programmes can open doors to exciting new product opportunities, bringing software entrepreneurs and industry fleet operators closer together," said Taco van der Leij, VP marketing, TomTom Telematics. "By offering an open platform, we want to drive product innovation and create opportunities not just for ourselves but for our partners and customers too."
