When the car connect system is released by the Ford, the Wi-Fi becomes the hot point. MyFord is able to hold the car Wi-Fi connection with the support of modem. This solution can reduce the cost for the manufacturers and consumers; meanwhile, the modem occupies less space.

The European manufacturers are going on another road. Marvell and Harman has declaimed that they have applied the MARVELL to integrate with the Wi-Fi connection. Marvell and Harman Automotive integrate the MMH technique into the car through the WLAN module, and the system can connect with the internet by the wireless connection and Bluetooth device.

Factories should connect the Wi-Fi with the car, so it will not be so "out". Unlike the traditional way which connects the internet with the audio, the movable device based internet application can not benefit the manufacturers directly.
