Chrysler will offer internet access later this year, making them the first car manufacturer to offer the feature.

The WiFi will available as an add-on to cars that are already built, and later will be part of the assembly line. Since it’s WiFi, the driver will have to have a wireless phone contract to get good coverage. Eventually the radio will become the WiFi access port.

 

Chrysler will initiate the effort by offering an off-road navigation system, chrome grille, heavy-duty bumper and a special sound system for its Jeep Wrangler, Nardelli said at the New York International Auto Show. The emphasis on Mopar, which provides dealers with replacement and accessory parts, is a turnabout for Chrysler after it considered selling the unit last year. "We're aggressively moving to capture more of the customer service and parts business by focusing on what dealers need to increase their profitability," Nardelli said. (washingtonpost)
