The new Volkswagen Touareg - "Discover Premium" infotainment system

The centrepiece of the Innovision Cockpit is the top Discover Premium infotainment system, which serves simultaneously as a radio-navigation system, telephone, information centre and user interface for configuring various vehicle functions. It is a system based on the 'MIB2+ High'. MIB stands for the modular infotainment matrix. The Discover Premium of the MIB2+ High offered in the Touareg delivers innovations that include 'Connected Navigation' (display of extended 3D city models), 'Nav-Gen4 Routing' (computation of alternative routes under consideration of route profiles, topography and recurring traffic situations such as rush hour), self-learning navigation (based on use profiles, the Discover Premium recognises where the driver is highly likely to want to drive to and recommends the associated route), 'Hybrid Radio' (fusion of terrestrial and Internet-based radio reception) as well as an extension of mobile online services (including reading news aloud and 'Gracenote online' to supplement song information, which can be saved locally and can also be called up offline at a later time.
