Stellantis is launching a new in-vehicle interactive task management tool for its commercial vehicles to enhance fleet safety.

MyTasks enables real-time communication, task assignment and status updates with drivers in the field via the vehicle’s built-in infotainment unit.

Said to be an industry-first, the MyTasks tool enables real-time communication, task assignment and status updates with drivers in the field via the vehicle’s built-in infotainment unit.

MyTasks enables fleet managers or dispatchers to assign tasks or change schedules of individual drivers via an online portal. Vehicle drivers then get an instant notification of assignments via a pop-up message in the vehicle’s infotainment screen. The connected system allows drivers to send their assigned destination to the vehicle’s navigation system for routing and provides dispatchers the status of each task.

“A breakthrough tool like MyTasks is the result of when we put our customers’ needs above all else,” Stellantis chief software officer Yves Bonnefont said. “We know that our B2B customers value efficiency and safety for their drivers and their fleets and we are using the capabilities built into our vehicles to cut down on the potential distractions and deliver key information to make their job easier.”

Pro One, the Stellantis commercial vehicles business unit, will be the first to offer this technology. MyTasks will be available in the first half of this year in Europe on compact and mid-size vans from the Citroën, Fiat Professional, Opel, Peugeot and Vauxhall brands. Availability will expand by the end of this year to large vans and compatible passenger cars in Europe and commercial vehicles in North America.

Free2move will add the tool to its commercial offer, alongside existing business solutions such as Preventive Maintenance and Connect Fleet.

The service can also be made available via API integration to all B2B partners that already have a tool to plan daily fleet activities.
