Mahindra has made a significant improvement to the intuitiveness of their electric SUVs with the development of the new conversational AI, TEQ_Talk, powered by Google Gemini, with which BE 6 SPORTEQ owners can talk to their cars to get all sorts of assistance while keeping their eyes on the road. This update provides the owners with the possibility to ask for help finding the nearest restaurant, the current weather forecast, or the most convenient charging stations along their route via voice. The feature not only responds to the given commands but also provides extra information on the given subject and performs them without a need to look at the screen.
The given function is a part of the update to make the vehicles’ interaction with their owners as intuitive as possible. Unlike other voice command features, TEQ_Talk requires minimal effort from the user due to Gemini’s high comprehension level. Owners can simply speak to their cars the same way they would ask for something from a helpful person, and the AI will provide the necessary assistance. The function includes navigation commands and other convenience features available by voice. In case of a need for additional information, the car will be able to offer the required data without stopping the driver from focusing on the road.
The updated convenience feature is part of Mahindra’s software-defined vehicle plans under the MAIA brand. Along with the new digital cockpit, the AI is available in the BE 6 SPORTEQ as a part of the connected car platform, which offers a more engaging experience for the drivers. It is utilized in the vehicles to fulfill the everyday tasks of the owners, such as finding the best route or informing about the current traffic situations. However, the electric SUV is still an efficient and powerful vehicle that provides the best performance on the road.
The given update has been made in the BE 6 SPORTEQ as a part of continuous improvement efforts by Mahindra to make their vehicles as convenient as possible for the users without compromising any of the efficiency or performance characteristics.
