Stellantis and 4screen Redefine In-Car Convenience with Real-Time, Location-Aware Mobility Services
In a strategic move that underscores the future of smart mobility, global automotive powerhouse Stellantis has partnered with 4screen, a leading in-car interaction technology company, to introduce real-time, location-based digital services to its vehicles. This collaboration is set to significantly enhance the in-car user experience by making journeys more intuitive, efficient, and connected for drivers across Europe and North America.
By integrating 4screen’s innovative platform into select Stellantis vehicles, the two companies aim to transform infotainment systems into dynamic, real-time mobility companions—empowering drivers with actionable information tailored to their location and travel context.
A Leap Toward Smarter Mobility Across Iconic Brands
Initially, the 4screen platform will be rolled out to select models from Stellantis’ celebrated brand portfolio, including FIAT, Jeep®, and Ram vehicles that are equipped with the Uconnect® 4 or Uconnect® 5 infotainment systems. This integration is just the first step; additional Stellantis brands are expected to adopt the technology as the rollout expands in phases.
The partnership reflects Stellantis’ commitment to pushing boundaries in automotive innovation. Through this collaboration, customers driving vehicles from these brands will benefit from a connected, intelligent in-car environment where real-time data empowers better decision-making on the road—whether it’s locating nearby fuel stations, EV charging points, restaurants, convenience stores, car washes, or even Stellantis dealerships.
Personalized and Efficient Driver Experiences
One of the core strengths of the 4screen platform lies in its ability to contextualize information based on the driver’s real-time location and behavior. Rather than overwhelming users with a barrage of irrelevant notifications, the platform selectively presents points of interest (POIs) and service recommendations that are both time- and place-appropriate.
For instance, if a driver is nearing a city center around lunchtime, the infotainment system could unobtrusively suggest nearby dining options, complete with business hours, available amenities, user ratings, and even special offers. Similarly, if fuel or battery levels are low, the system could present the nearest gas stations or EV chargers, complete with pricing and availability. These intelligent recommendations are designed to make the driving experience smoother and more rewarding, with minimal need for manual input.
Moreover, drivers can fine-tune the system to reflect their preferences. Whether a user prefers fast food chains or independent cafes, budget parking or premium garages, or wants to avoid toll roads, the system’s settings allow for a personalized and tailored experience every time they hit the road.
A Safe, Non-Intrusive Digital Interface
While mobile apps have long offered access to local services, they often demand manual searches and touch interaction that can detract from safe driving. The 4screen solution is purpose-built for the in-car environment and is fully integrated with Stellantis’ infotainment platforms.
The user interface is designed with safety and simplicity in mind. By leveraging vehicle data and navigation context, 4screen ensures that any information displayed on-screen is both timely and safe for drivers to view while operating their vehicle. Unlike third-party mobile apps that require smartphone usage, the system minimizes distraction by embedding content directly into the vehicle’s native display, using context-aware prompts to engage the driver only when necessary.
As a result, drivers receive helpful, non-intrusive recommendations on their infotainment screens without the clutter, complexity, or potential hazards associated with external devices. This design philosophy aligns with Stellantis’ broader goal of improving safety through intelligent technology integration.
A New Era of Connected Car Commerce
In addition to enhancing navigation and convenience, the 4screen platform also introduces a new layer of connected commerce. Businesses that partner with 4screen can deliver real-time offers and promotions directly to drivers in their vicinity. These can include discounts at local coffee shops, promotions at convenience stores, or service coupons at nearby dealerships.
This creates a win-win ecosystem: customers receive timely, relevant deals while businesses gain a direct channel to potential customers who are literally driving past their locations. As in-car commerce evolves, platforms like 4screen could serve as the foundation for a new digital marketplace embedded in everyday driving experiences.
Stellantis and 4screen are leveraging this opportunity to make the vehicle not just a means of transportation, but an active, connected participant in the customer journey.
Executive Insights: A Shared Vision for Innovation
Both Stellantis and 4screen leaders emphasized the transformative nature of the partnership during the announcement.
“We are focused on delivering connected technology that brings meaningful value to our customers,” said Cristiani Campos, Senior Vice President of Stellantis’ Software Business Unit. “Partnering with 4screen helps us give drivers relevant, helpful content on their terms, when and where they need it.”
For 4screen, the collaboration marks a significant milestone in expanding its presence among global OEMs. “Our platform turns the in-car screen into a smart mobility companion,” said Fabian Beste, CEO and Co-Founder of 4screen. “We’re proud to work with Stellantis to offer this enhanced experience across multiple brands and regions.”
The partnership not only demonstrates Stellantis’ commitment to providing a best-in-class connected car experience, but also positions 4screen as a key enabler of context-aware mobility technologies across the automotive landscape.
Seamless Rollout Through Over-the-Air Updates
In line with Stellantis’ push toward software-defined vehicles, the deployment of 4screen’s platform is being executed via over-the-air (OTA) updates. This allows eligible vehicle owners to benefit from the new services without the need for dealership visits or hardware changes.
Drivers may already notice these enhancements appearing on their infotainment systems, as Stellantis initiates a progressive rollout across its target markets. The use of OTA updates also provides flexibility for ongoing improvements, allowing Stellantis and 4screen to introduce new features, refine existing services, and respond to customer feedback in real time.
Future of In-Vehicle Interaction
As the automotive industry undergoes a rapid transformation fueled by digitalization, electrification, and customer-centric innovation, partnerships like Stellantis and 4screen’s represent the future of mobility.
No longer is a vehicle simply a method of transportation; it is evolving into a connected platform that informs, supports, and interacts with its occupants in real time. Whether through advanced driver-assistance systems, real-time content delivery, or contextual commerce, modern vehicles are increasingly becoming personalized digital environments on wheels.
This collaboration marks an important step in that journey—creating a smarter, safer, and more engaging driving experience by combining cutting-edge software with real-world mobility needs.
