Thailand Gets ‘HondaLink’ Before The Rest Of Asia

Honda recently announced the availability of HondaLink in Thailand, an intelligent automotive application for smart phones, along with the Honda Roadside Assistance (Honda RSA) application and the HondaLink Navigation application. Thailand is the first country in Asia where these apps are being released.
Using smart phones, HondaLink’s diverse features make it faster and easier for customers to access detailed information about their vehicles and other services in a colorful, easy-to-understand and easy-to-use graphical display. The three applications are available for free download from the Apple app store and Google Play.

The HondaLink app enhances the Honda car owner experience in many ways. It comes with three highly useful features.

The second, Statistics, shows data such as the fuel economy figure and odometer settings at key points, including the distance travelled in comparison with the diameter of the globe, all displayed in an interesting graphical manner. Maintenance enables a Honda owner to get notifications from a Honda dealer about the vehicle’s maintenance. This can include routine check-up, oil and filter changes and so on, as well as replacement of parts such as tires, the battery, or air filter. The Maintenance builds a detailed history of each maintenance action taken on the vehicle, including the check-up date, dealer name, cost and so on. Vehicle maintenance cycles can be set by time or mileage. Other reminders about necessities such as annual car tax renewal, monthly payment dates and insurance payments help Honda owners to ensure they don’t overlook anything important. They can also get updates on special promotions being offered by Honda dealers.

Customers can also get timely assistance with Honda Roadside Assistance (HondaRSA), another key application that is integrated with HondaLink. If their vehicle breaks down, this location-based service lets Honda customers quickly and easily call for roadside assistance support. The HondaLink app is also integrated with Honda’s 24hr.

Using the Tracking Provider feature, customers can trace the location of the vehicle from Honda Service Centre that is heading to the site to provide assistance.
The HondaLink Navigation application provides real-time traffic updates. An outstanding feature of the HondaLink Navigation application is Free Word Search, which offers easy and fast searching for travel information by typing in the name of the desired destination, Lane Info that enables driver to pre-check the route, travel planning and distance travelled to reach a destination. HondaLink Navigation is ready to be downloaded for a free 30-day trial (starting from the day it is downloaded). Basically, it has a 3-year connection fee of US$ 39 (approximately 1,200 baht).
