Unser Auftrag

Bewegungsfreiheit für alle freischalten

Bei Smartcar verfolgen wir eine einfache, aber wirkungsvolle Mission: Bewegungsfreiheit für alle zu ermöglichen. Wir glauben, dass ein gleichberechtigter Zugang zu Mobilität mehr als nur eine Annehmlichkeit ist — er ist ein modernes Recht. Wir stellen uns eine Welt vor, in der Mobilität Barrieren überwindet und in der jeder Einzelne, unabhängig von seinem Hintergrund oder seinen Umständen, die Vorteile uneingeschränkter Mobilität nutzen kann, um sein Leben zu bereichern. Schließlich geht es beim Transport nicht nur darum, von A nach B zu gelangen, sondern auch um wirtschaftlichen Erfolg, Unabhängigkeit und persönliche Erfüllung.

Smartcar spielt eine zentrale Rolle bei der Förderung der Bewegungsfreiheit, indem es die führende API für vernetzte Autos bereitstellt. Unsere API ermöglicht eine einfache Integration in Autos und unterstützt innovative Mobilitäts-Apps und Lösungen, die das Leben von Menschen verbessern. Ganz gleich, ob es darum geht, Einzelpersonen beim Zugang zu Verkehrsmitteln zu unterstützen, Geld bei Autoversicherungsprämien zu sparen, ihren Lebensunterhalt durch Carsharing-Unternehmen zu verdienen oder durch die Nutzung von Elektrofahrzeugen zur ökologischen Nachhaltigkeit beizutragen, Smartcar bietet eine Vielzahl innovativer Lösungen an, die das individuelle und kollektive Mobilitätserlebnis verbessern.

Wir setzen uns auch für die Wahlfreiheit von Fahrzeugführern ein und stellen sicher, dass sie die Kontrolle über ihre Daten behalten und gleichzeitig auf eine breite Palette von Mobilitätslösungen zugreifen können, die auf ihre Bedürfnisse zugeschnitten sind. Unsere Plattform priorisiert einen einwilligungsorientierten Ansatz, bei dem der Datenschutz an erster Stelle steht. So wird sichergestellt, dass Einzelpersonen die volle Kontrolle über ihre Daten behalten und darauf vertrauen können, dass ihre Privatsphäre geschützt ist. Durch die Zusammenarbeit von Fahrzeugbesitzern, Autoherstellern und Entwicklern treiben wir Innovationen voran, die unsere Mobilität neu definieren und gleichzeitig die Wahlmöglichkeiten, Transparenz, Datenschutz und Sicherheit der Verbraucher in den Vordergrund stellen.

Wir setzen uns dafür ein, positive Veränderungen voranzutreiben und die Mobilität nachhaltig zu beeinflussen, und ebnen den Weg für eine Zukunft, in der Bewegungsfreiheit allen gehört.
