1. A method for controlling a vehicle with a telematics terminal installed in or on the vehicle, comprising:
- wirelessly receiving coordinates of a geo-fence area by the telematics terminal from a remote server;
determining whether or not the vehicle is located within the geo-fence area or is on a route that will intercept the geo-fence area;
directly controlling the vehicle to meet predetermined drive requirements previously set for the geo-fence area, if the vehicle is determined to have entered into the geo-fence area;
receiving updated coordinates of the geo-fence area by the telematics terminal; and
determining whether or not the vehicle is located within a corresponding updated geo-fence area or is on a route that will intercept the updated geo-fence area;
receiving, by the telematics terminal, information related to a predetermined event occurrence from the remote server;
changing, by the telematics terminal, the geo-fence area based on the received information related to the predetermined event occurrence; and
displaying the changed geo-fence area on a display.

17. A motor vehicle, comprising:
-
a position-location device configured to recognize a location of the vehicle; a wireless communication device; and a telematics terminal having a controller operatively connected to the position-location module and the wireless communication device, the controller configured to wirelessly receive coordinates of a geo-fence area from a remote server, determine whether or not the vehicle is located within the geo-fence area or is on a route that will intercept the geo-fence area, and directly control the vehicle to meet predetermined drive requirements previously set for the geo-fence area, if the vehicle is determined to have entered into the geo-fence area, receive updated coordinates of the geo-fence area by the telematics terminal, determine whether or not the vehicle is located within a corresponding updated geo-fence area or is on a route that will intercept the updated geo-fence area, receive information related to a predetermined event occurrence from the remote server change the geo-fence area based on the received information related to the predetermined event occurrence, and display the changed geo-fence area on a display.
