Hanoi (VNA) – VinFast is setto become the first all-electric carmaker to integrate what3words navigationacross its entire lineup, announced the company on January 10.
what3words is the location technology service that has splitthe entire world into 10 square feet (3m) chunks and assigned each chunk aunique combination of three random words to help identify it.
The system’s advantage is a voice search in more than 50different languages, including Vietnamese. Drivers can enter a what3wordsaddress through voice or text input to find exactly where they’re looking for.
Users can also convert their current location into awhat3words address by using the service’s companion app.
Chris Sheldrick, CEO and Co-founder of what3words, said that although putting an address into a navigation system can be a frustrating experience, when VinFast drivers enter a what3words address, they canbe confident that the location is accurate to 10ft every time./.
