Volvo México Initiative Safely Transports Seniors During COVID-19 – Danlaw Provides Connectivity

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, Volvo México is dedicated to helping the community's most vulnerable members - senior citizens. Volvo recently launched its Healthy Kilometers initiative, which enables local medical facilities to safely and efficiently transport elderly and limited mobility patients between non-emergency medical appointments.

Danlaw, the leading telematics supplier to Volvo México, joined the initiative to equip each vehicle with an OBD telematics device - DataLogger. This device ensures drivers in the Healthy Kilometers program are commuting safely and staying on-course.

How It Works

The Healthy Kilometers program leverages Volvo's advanced vehicle safety features and Danlaw's connected car technology to enable safe medical transportation for senior citizens.

Danlaw Keeps Cars Connected

Each vehicle in the Healthy Kilometers fleet is equipped with a DataLogger. This telematics device plugs into the car's OBD port to collect data about the vehicle and the driver's behavior. The data is transmitted to Volvo's backend platform and tracks the vehicle's performance and location in real time.
