The digital mapping arm of e-commerce conglomerate Alibaba Group Holding Ltd officially unveiled its Internet-enabled navigation system for cars on Thursday.
AutoNavi Holdings Ltd, which was acquired by Alibaba in 2014, said the new system called Amap Auto can offer real-time traffic information and provide advice on best routes to avoid congestion.
Until recently, most drivers had to use a GPS system or download a map application on their mobile devices to navigate.
