Com4: Your partner for automotive IoT innovation
Global and reliable connectivity wherever vehicles go
For automotive OEMs, delivering cars to international markets requires a connectivity solution that works seamlessly across borders. With Com4 global IoT SIM cards, including eSIM and iSIM options, vehicles remain connected no matter where they are deployed. This ensures that features such as over-the-air (OTA) updates, real-time navigation, predictive diagnostics, and emergency systems work continuously and without interruption.
Com4 provides multi-carrier redundancy, ensuring that vehicles can switch to the best available network in each location. This is particularly valuable for EV manufacturers who depend on connectivity for charging station locators, remote battery performance monitoring, and energy optimization tools that deliver a hassle-free driving experience for end users.
Improving road safety with V2V and V2X communication
Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication represent the next frontier in traffic safety and intelligent transportation systems. With Com4 connectivity, vehicles can exchange information on speed, direction, and location in real time, creating 360-degree awareness that helps prevent collisions, particularly in heavy traffic or poor visibility.
V2X extends these capabilities further by allowing vehicles to communicate with traffic lights, road sensors, and urban infrastructure. This enables smarter traffic management, reduces congestion, and enhances public safety. Powered by low-latency cellular networks such as 5G and LTE-M, Com4 provides the reliability needed for these safety-critical services.
For OEMs, these technologies represent an important step toward autonomous driving, where split-second data exchange is a matter of life and death.
Enhancing vehicle performance with real-time data
Connected vehicles generate enormous amounts of data: from engine diagnostics to driver behavior. With Com4’s IoT connectivity platform, OEMs can collect, analyze, and act on this data in real time. This enables predictive maintenance, reduces downtime, and helps manufacturers deliver a better ownership experience.
For electric vehicles, this capability is even more critical. Com4 connectivity enables manufacturers to monitor battery health, range, and energy consumption continuously. This data not only extends battery life but also empowers drivers to plan trips more confidently with accurate range predictions and charging recommendations.
Over-the-air updates for an exceptional customer experience
With Com4 cellular connectivity, automotive manufacturers can remotely update vehicles through over-the-air (OTA) updates. This allows them to roll out new features, bug fixes, or security patches instantly, without requiring a visit to the service center.
For EV manufacturers, OTA updates are essential to improve battery management systems and introduce energy-saving features that directly impact driving range and efficiency. According to industry research, OTA updates could save automakers billions in recall costs over the next decade. With Com4, manufacturers can deliver these benefits reliably across global markets.
Tesla: a car connected like a device
Tesla vehicles are built with integrated cellular IoT connectivity, ensuring they are always online much like a smartphone. This constant connection enables essential features such as real-time navigation, live traffic updates, streaming media, and seamless integration with the Tesla mobile app. Through the app, owners can remotely control functions like locking/unlocking doors, flashing lights, adjusting climate settings, or even using advanced tools like Smart Summon. Cellular connectivity also powers Tesla’s over-the-air software updates, allowing the company to deliver new features, security patches, and performance improvements without requiring a visit to a service center.
To support different user needs, Tesla offers two connectivity tiers. Standard Connectivity, included for a set period, provides access to basic navigation and Wi-Fi-based services. Premium Connectivity, available as a subscription, unlocks the full suite of cellular-enabled features—including video and music streaming, satellite-view maps, and live traffic visualization—ensuring a fully connected experience even outside Wi-Fi zones. In essence, cellular IoT is the backbone of Tesla’s connected car strategy, transforming each vehicle into an intelligent, updatable device within the broader smart ecosystem.
Powering innovation with connected features
Today’s drivers expect their vehicles to be more than a mode of transport; they expect a connected experience. Com4 enables automotive OEMs to offer advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), real-time traffic updates, in-car entertainment, and safety features such as automatic crash response.
In the EV segment, connectivity is also unlocking new functionality, such as remote charging management, where drivers can start or stop charging and monitor energy use directly from a mobile app. Com4 connectivity also supports smart grid integration, enabling EVs to optimize charging schedules and reduce energy costs while contributing to greener, more efficient energy distribution.
Unlocking new revenue streams for OEMs
Cellular IoT connectivity is not only a tool for improving vehicles, it also opens new business opportunities. With Com4 connectivity, manufacturers can offer subscription-based services such as premium in-car Wi-Fi, advanced navigation packages, and eco-driving tips.
For electric vehicle manufacturers, subscription models can extend to exclusive charging network access, real-time battery analytics, and tailored performance features. These recurring revenue streams help OEMs build stronger customer relationships while creating sustainable new income models.
Simplifying connectivity management across markets
Managing connectivity for millions of vehicles across different countries is a complex challenge. Com4 makes this simple with remote SIM provisioning through eSIM, which allow OEMs to switch carriers without replacing physical SIM cards. This ensures that vehicles always connect to the best available network in each region, reducing operational complexity and improving customer satisfaction.
For automotive OEMs and EV manufacturers rolling out connected fleets globally, Com4 provides a unified connectivity management platform that consolidates billing, security, and device lifecycle management into a single, easy-to-use interface.
