Jaguar and Shell will Offer In-Car Payments Through the Dashboard Interface
Luxury British automaker Jaguar and Shell, the massive gas company, have teamed up to make chores more convenient for drivers in a hurry. Jaguar and Shell recently announced a new system through which Jaguar owners can pay for their gasoline directly through their vehicle's dashboard interface, eliminating the need to ever exit the car when filling up.
The in-car gas payments will be available in several 2018 Jaguar models, including the F-PACE, the XE, and the XF. Payments will be carried out through PayPal and Apple Pay upon the release of the new models, and Jaguar expects to add Android Pay to the system in the near future.
