He expressed confidence that the combination of Maruti Suzuki’s business scale and Ravity’s agility and expertise in AI, analytics, and mobility would create value for customers. The startup’s platform is designed to help organizations unlock new revenue streams and transform customer experience through connected vehicle data analytics.
The investment reflects the growing trend of established automotive companies partnering with technology startups to navigate the industry’s digital transformation and meet evolving customer expectations in the connected vehicle space.
