From commuting to work to shuttling the kids, how safe of a driver are you? Imagine receiving real-time feedback on your driving not only to help make you safer on the roads, but to also save money on your auto insurance. Today, Liberty Mutual Insurance is excited to announce the new Liberty Mutual RightTrack in-vehicle application with Subaru of America, Inc., a first-of-its-kind app that offers real-time driving feedback and tips while helping to reduce insurance premiums for safe drivers.
The new Liberty Mutual app will be available on the Subaru Starlink cloud platform, powered by Clarion’s Smart Access™ technology that connects Subaru vehicles to a driver’s smartphone to monitor driving habits, provide trip reports and offer tips to become a safer driver. This innovative app will be available in 2016 to Subaru models equipped with Subaru Starlink. Starlink In-Vehicle Technology is all the audio, infotainment and connected service features available in Subaru vehicles.
The RightTrack in-vehicle app will provide real-time driving assessment and coaching for Subaru owners based on their actual driving behavior. For example, after each trip, a driver will receive a report based on their behaviors such as rapid acceleration or hard braking. Depending on their performance, Subaru drivers will be eligible for savings through Liberty Mutual’s RightTrack, a usage-based insurance program that lets customers save on their auto insurance based on their driving habits. Subaru owners may also qualify for additional savings through Liberty Mutual’s affinity program– which Subaru of America, Inc. has been a partner of since 2002.
“We are excited to bring this innovative offering to market,” said Hamid Mirza, auto product manager, Liberty Mutual Insurance. “This partnership combines Liberty Mutual’s extensive experience and reach in usage-based insurance with Subaru and Clarion’s cutting-edge connected car technology to bring RightTrack savings to consumers in new ways.”
In the near future, Subaru Starlink users will also receive benefits such as severe weather alerts, accident scene assistance and roadside assistance directly to their connected vehicle.
The Subaru Starlink connectivity solution is powered by Clarion’s advanced Smart Access cloud platform which allows drivers to seamlessly sync and access all Starlink approved apps effortlessly, without needing an update to the vehicle firmware, enabling safe control and display on the vehicle touch panel.
