WikiLocations

The WikiLocations app allows you to read Wikipedia articles related to your car's position and destination. WikiLocations can only be used if the car is equipped with both Sensus Connect and Sensus Navigation.

The WikiLocations app

With WikiLocations you can access Wikipedia-based content. This is a service that is not part of the car's navigation system. You can view articles, images and summaries that are related to your vehicle's position and destination.

The articles found in WikiLocations are those that have been designated a geographical position, which does not apply to all articles. WikiLocations only shows articles that match the vehicle's language settings and articles in English.

Using WikiLocations

WikiLocations is a free service which does not require an account.

Note that data usage charges may be incurred depending on subscription. Contact your internet provider for more information.

Use the steering wheel knob for safer use of the app while you drive.
