Car Maintenance Concierge Apps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

'Volvo Concierge Services' Gives Owners Remote Access to Car Care

— November 21, 2016 — Autos
Owning a vehicle comes with a host of perks, but it also requires certain responsibilities, and 'Volvo Concierge Services' will make it easier for Volvo owners to fulfill those. The pilot program is an app that allows Volvo drivers to remotely order services like car washes, gas fill ups, and even complete maintenance runs.

With the Volvo Concierge Services app, drivers can take of the little chores that come along with owning a car without having to take time out of their days. The system works by creating a single-use digital key that allows the service provider (e.g. the company coming to fill the tank or take the vehicle in for maintenance) to unlock and drive the car without needing the physical key.
Trend Themes
1. Remote Car Care - The rise of car maintenance concierge apps like 'Volvo Concierge Services' is offering car owners the convenience of remotely ordering services and taking care of maintenance tasks.
2. On-demand Car Services - Apps like 'Volvo Concierge Services' are enabling drivers to conveniently order services like car washes, gas fill ups, and maintenance runs on demand.
3. Digital Key Technology - The use of single-use digital keys, as demonstrated by 'Volvo Concierge Services', allows service providers to unlock and drive cars without a physical key, disrupting traditional key systems.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive Services - Car maintenance concierge apps are disrupting the automotive services industry, providing car owners with convenient and on-demand access to services like car washes and maintenance.
2. On-demand Services - The rise of car maintenance concierge apps reflects the broader trend of on-demand services, catering to consumers' desire for convenience and efficiency.
3. Digital Security - The adoption of single-use digital keys in car maintenance concierge apps poses disruptive innovation opportunities in the digital security industry, as the traditional physical key system is replaced by digital solutions.
