Abstract

A vehicle information system includes: a vehicle-mounted device, a voice service system and a service center which is adapted for providing service data. A first service channel system is configured between the voice service system and the vehicle-mounted device, and adapted for transmitting voice data. A second service channel is configured between the voice service system and the service center, and adapted for transmitting configuration data which is adapted for configuring the service data that are provided for the vehicle-mounted device. And the second service channel is established on basis of connection to internet. A third service channel system is configured between the service center and the vehicle-mounted device. A complete solution for providing real-time information service may be provided by the vehicle information system, thereby improving the quality of user experience while using a vehicle.
