“We’re always looking for ways to make the SiriusXM experience more enjoyable and easier to use for our subscribers coast to coast,” said Sean Gibbons, SVP and GM, Automotive Product and Engineering, SiriusXM. “By teaming up with Cerence, a leader in intuitive, natural in-vehicle experiences, we’re making it easier than ever for drivers to access and enjoy the best selection of audio entertainment available in the car.”

This integrated offering will be available in North America to automakers for models starting production in the next year, and it will be available to OEMs with existing Cerence-powered automotive assistants that have over-the-air update capabilities.
