RADIOPLAYER AND RENAULT SIGNS HYBRID RADIO PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

Radioplayer and Renault recently announced the signature of a long-term partnership to power the in-car broadcast radios of the brand.

This new deal will see cars from Renault displaying official station information from the Worldwide Radioplayer API (WRAPI) to power a state-of-the-art hybrid radio experience. It will also see Radioplayer and Renault working in partnership to develop advanced hybrid radio features, to improve and personalise the listening experience for Renault customers.

The Radioplayer for Renault app is one of a handful of selected apps which is recommended to drivers of Renault vehicles equipped with the OpenR Link multimedia system, like Megane E-Tech 100% electric, the All-new Austral and the All-new Espace models. Thanks to this application Renault’s customers have access to a wide range of radio, web radio, and podcasts from around the world.

Renault’s vehicles are embedding the OpenR Link interface to power their infotainment experience, and Radioplayer has established a market-leading position in this area, with its hybrid ‘Reference Radio’ app. This is able to switch automatically between DAB+, FM, and Streaming, and also offers station recommendations and podcasts.

This latest partnership builds on Radioplayer’s prominent position in hybrid radio in Europe.
