This is the second country in Europe where ATX supports PSA brands. Operating under the Peugeot Services Mobiles (PSM) brand, the supplier introduced services commercially in France last year.
Any PSA vehicle equipped with an RT4 navigation system with colour display can sign up for services. As in France, PSM is available for the 207, 307, 308, 407, 607, 807, 1007 and Expert lines (plus a variety of Citroens -ed).
New customers who purchase their car receive an initial complimentary three months of service. After the trial period, the service costs EUR14.90 per month. After 12 consecutive months of paid service, the customer is eligible to receive a free update of the French and German maps for the vehicle’s navigation system.
Most services provided to owners in France will be available to owners in Germany, including routing services optimised with real-time traffic reports and alternative routes/deviation points, directions to various points of interest, the ability to download these points of interest into the vehicle’s navigation system, and the capability to access a personal phone and address directory from the car.

“The benefit to drivers is a safer and more relaxed drive, without the need to manually [operate] their navigation system while driving.”
