Underpinned by a Deep Commitment to Hasten the Industry’s Realization of Software-Defined Vehicles, Karma Connect Enables More Vehicles to Stay on the Road Longer While Enriching the Ownership Experience

IRVINE, Calif., July 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Karma Automotive, California’s first and only ultra-luxury automaker, today launches Karma Connect, a proprietary Vehicle Data Management (VDM) and Over The Air (OTA) services platform which will redefine the experience of owning a Karma automobile both today and tomorrow, and as the company will be making these first-to-market services available to Tier 1’s and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s), signifies the arrival of Karma Automotive as a business-to-business technology partner whose initiatives will benefit the industry at large.

Karma Automotive Takes the Role of Business-to-Business Technology Partner with Karma Connect

The arrival of Karma Connect follows through on the business strategy initiated by the February, 2024 acquisition by Karma Automotive of assets of the company formerly known as Airbiquity, an automotive commercial software company which has been deployed in more than 60 countries, servicing the largest OEM’s including both passenger cars and motorcycles. That acquisition included technology assets, intellectual property, the onboarding of key technical employees, and the continuation of services contracted with OEM’s.

For clients purchasing Karma automobiles, Karma Connect comes standard and will ensure a level of service, content, and features renewal through next-generation OTA data transmission, a central enabler of Software-Defined Vehicles. Further, Karma Connect is underpinned by the company’s deep commitment to lengthen product longevity – a mindset more often associated with heirlooms than vehicles with predetermined obsolescence – a commitment to be met with further developments pertaining to vehicle touchpoints including color, material, and personalization.

For other OEMs, with technologies like Karma Connect, Karma Automotive can provide the industry with rapid, statistically relevant insights from its highly affluent customer base that is pre-disposed to first-mover product adoption. As all technologies are deployed in Karma vehicles first, partners benefit from software that is hardened for production in automotive applications, instead of laboratory developments. This mitigates the risk of new technology adoption and quickens innovation and validation cycles.

“The automotive industry continues to undergo massive transformation, adopting new technology at a pace never seen before,” says Marques McCammon, President, Karma Automotive. “Each of these new innovations challenges manufacturers’ deeply-rooted systems, architectures, processes and supply chain. The goal is to pivot to the future while sustaining profitability today. Software-Defined Vehicles are the future, but it’s yet to be fully realized because the cost of change, at least in the near term, is erosive to profits. It is a classic innovator’s dilemma but playing at industry scale. Karma Connect demonstrates the role Karma Automotive will play as an ally, helping manufacturers meet the demands of tomorrow, right now.”   

Two distinct services are offered beneath the Karma Connect umbrella:

Karma Flash: Utilizing Karma Cloud Services (KCS), Karma Flash delivers OTA updates to any Karma Revero vehicle MY2020 and later, a one-way flash upgrade from cloud to client. While Karma Flash can be used to fix issues, it will also deliver new features and capability to vehicles long after the point of sale, similar to downloading a new app for a smartphone.
 Karma Recon: Also utilizing KCS, Karma Recon is a robust service which focuses on data analytics to deliver meaningful insights. Through reciprocal data transmission between the cloud and the client, and the client to the cloud, Karma Recon enables the retrieval of onboard data, diagnostics and analytics from the vehicle. Once a sufficient history of data has been compiled, Karma Recon can use its AI-based fault-filtration utility to predict potential onboard failures before they occur, prompting precautionary service of the vehicle while simultaneously generating real-time design cases to help engineers address issues at the source.

Karma vehicle customers will get their first experience with Karma Flash with the launch of “Tune”, a new cabin audio experience for the Karma Revero sport sedan. This upgrade, engineered by luxury audio designer Master & Dynamic, will be made available to existing Revero owners Model Year 2020 and later. Tune by Master & Dynamic will also be a retail option on the 3rd Generation Karma Revero, which begins delivering to clients in the 4th Quarter 2024.

BEIJING, Dec. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Beijing, as a capital of five dynasties in history, preserves rich historical heritage, such as traditional buildings and hutongs (alleys). Yangmeizhu Xiejie, an alley in Xicheng District of Beijing, is regarded as one of Beijing’s ten most beautiful alleys for its historical charm, traditional culture and the shops with creative designs and products.

 

Since 2013, the government Xicheng District has been working on renovation of Yangmeizhu Xiejie, including the residences and shops along the alley, which is supported by the residents. After renovation, the shops maintain their original building styles while expanding new functions and space with creative designs, attracting investments from both home and abroad.

If take a walk in Yangmeizhu Xiejie, one can find a vibrant alley that blends traditional architecture with modern lifestyle and cultural creativity. Yangmeizhu Xiejie presents a scene of everyday life in Beijing’s alleys: clothes hung out in resident courtyard for drying, the hustle and bustle of vegetable markets, and smoke from kitchen chimneys.

The alley also gathers many cultural spaces that integrate traditional culture with contemporary design. Shopkeepers from both home and abroad have started their creative businesses in the alley, reflecting Beijing’s openness and inclusiveness. Each corner of the alley offers a glimpse into the local lifestyle and culture, making it an ideal destination for those who want to experience the authentic hutong culture.

When night falls, the alley restores to quiet again as tourists leave. Local residents continue to enjoy the leisure in the alley. The harmony is well maintained between the residents and neighboring business in the alley, promoting the sustainable development of the traditional Beijing lifestyle and moderate commercial activities.
