Remote actions are designed to allow Volvo owners with Google built-in to monitor and communicate with your automobile from virtually anywhere!
Remote actions help you derive more value from your Volvo with hands-free access to your car to get helpful insight and intelligent control — from anywhere — so it feels more integrated into your daily life.
You can control your Volvo from the comfort of your home and prepare your car before leaving the front door.
