Mitsubishi offers In-CarPC vehicle computers to UK fleet customers
Date: November 2008
Mitsubishi UK are now able to provide their specialist fleet customers with vehicle computer systems from In-CarPC, at their Specialist Vehicle Preparation Centre in Gloucestershire. The computers will be built for Mitsubishi on demand to customers’ exact specifications, and will be used for a wide range of tasks, including vehicle tracking, mobile CCTV recording, data capture and internet-based communications. The PCs are available across Mitsubishi's entire range of fleet vehicles.The requirements of fleet customers are often far more demanding than those of retail customers, and Mitsubishi are already able to supply fleet vehicles with an extensive range of options, including radio communications systems, specialist liveries and light bars. Because all these options are available direct from Mitsubishi, specialist customers are able to order their vehicles with the exact set of options that they need, without having to add additional equipment after the vehicle is supplied. Due to a number of existing Mitsubishi Fleet customers requesting In-CarPC's computers, Mitsubishi now offer our computers preinstalled before vehicle delivery.
More information about Mitsubishi's range of fleet vehicles is available at www.mitsubishi-cars.co.uk/fleet

For applications with very limited space we launched our Pico vehicle PC, which measures just 13 x 13.5 x 6.5 cm but is still a fully functional PC.
