First Claim
1. A vehicle, comprising:
- at least one environment detection system;
a communication system operatively configured to transmit information remotely to receivers external to the vehicle;
at least one electronic control unit operatively coupled with the environment detection system and the communication system, wherein;
the electronic control unit is operatively configured to enable a standby mode activatable automatically or manually, the electronic control unit switching-on the environment detection system and the communication system when the vehicle is parked and the standby mode is activated, the switching-on being at least to a limited extent to carry out predefined functions related to transmitting information externally.
