Munich, Germany \u2013 22 October 2025 \u2013<\/strong> Zeekr Technology Europe, the European R&D center of Zeekr, a Global premium EV brand, and Intellias, a global software engineering and digital consulting company, are proud to announce that its joint navigation solution powered by Mapbox has been named Navigation App of the Year at the AutoTech Breakthrough Awards 2025.<\/p>\n

The project, distinctively titled \u201cBreaking Through with Customer-Led Navigation Intelligence\u201d, combines Zeekr\u2019s customer-centric innovation, Intellias\u2019 AI-powered feedback platform, and Mapbox\u2019s advanced mapping and location platform. The result is a navigation solution featuring a clean UI, compliance with local mapping standards, regional Points of Interest, and integrated European charging infrastructure. It was nominated in the Navigation and Mapping category for its dynamic, AI-enhanced feedback system that evolves based on real user input.<\/p>\n

The award-winning navigation app empowers Zeekr drivers in Europe to submit voice and screen feedback directly through the in-car interface. This feedback is instantly captured and processed through a secure, cloud-based platform developed by Intellias. The system is built with the Mapbox Navigation SDK, which enables real-time updates, traffic-aware routing, 3D lane guidance, and seamless integration of user-generated insights. Together, these technologies allow Zeekr teams to respond quickly and make data-driven product decisions based on real user needs.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re honored to receive this recognition together with Intellias. By combining AI technology with direct driver feedback and leveraging Mapbox\u2019s powerful mapping capabilities, we\u2019ve taken meaningful steps toward making navigation more intuitive, dynamic and responsive, delivering real relevant information to our customers. This is how we innovate: with purpose, with speed, and with our customers at the center.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
