The company plans to combine the cloud-based platform of Sibros to its own products to enable features such as software and firmware updates, vehicle data collection for analytics, remote diagnostics and troubleshooting for the automakers.

The Sibros Deep Connected Platform (DCP) is a vertically integrated vehicle-to-cloud system combining embedded firmware and SaaS applications, as per the statement. The California-based company recently raised $70 million in its Series B round of funding from Energy Impact Partners (EIP), Google, Qualcomm Ventures, Fontinalis Partners, Iron Pillar, Nexus Venture Partners and Moneta Ventures.
