Parkopedia and Hyundai AutoEver Showcase Europe’s First In-Car Indoor Navigation

London, UK / Seoul, South Korea - Parkopedia and Hyundai AutoEver are pleased to have successfully demonstrated Europe’s first end-to-end in-car navigation and mapping service, which provides a streamlined, stress-free parking process for drivers completing their journeys in indoor locations. The Indoor Maps service seamlessly directs drivers to specific parking spaces, EV chargers or zones, helping them to navigate indoor or underground locations without the need for traditional GPS localisation. Once in production, Indoor Maps is set to become a key differentiator for automakers as drivers place ever more value in seamless in-car technology. This service delivers value across parking, mobility and autonomous driving, helping drivers to easily navigate indoors as well as outdoors. Unlike current user journeys that finish at the car park entrance, seamless end-to-end navigation completes the journey by guiding drivers all the way to their exact parking space or zone, for use cases such as EV charging or for more efficient onward mobility. Helping to make the service invaluable for drivers, Parkopedia has improved 3D visualisation and linked Indoor Maps to Parkopedia’s EV product for a seamless parking and charging experience, whether drivers are parking indoors or outdoors. This is an increasingly important consideration as EVs continue to make up a growing proportion of the global car fleet and drivers increasingly want to be able to conveniently charge while parked away from home. Parkopedia, in partnership with Hyundai AutoEver, will be the first company to offer full high-definition indoor maps at scale across Europe, with North American mapping already underway. In contrast to relying on low-fidelity map data, Parkopedia utilises rich 3D point cloud data to create fully high-definition maps, capturing precise real-world details to deliver a safer, smoother, and more intuitive navigation experience. This means better contextual awareness, with map data including walking routes, EV chargers, accessible spaces and payment zones for a frictionless end-to-end experience. Parkopedia already has a market-ready inventory of car parks across Europe and continues to add new data and locations daily. In addition, we are currently expanding the service into North America due to customer demand, starting with the San Francisco Bay Area, with active deployments underway to map new locations. Parkopedia has prioritised indoor maps of key mobility hubs, including airports, train station car parks and large shopping centres to make parking and navigation simpler in the locations that drivers are most likely to encounter. The company has already mapped 18 of the busiest 25 airports in Europe, with individual car parks up to 6,000 spaces included, helping to take the stress out of airport navigation and parking. Parkopedia has invested significant resources into new tooling and AI optimisation to improve the speed and efficiency of creating new indoor maps. This involves automating repeatable tasks and taking advantage of computer vision and machine learning technology, including developing unique algorithms that can recognise and log features such as entrances, staircases and elevators. Highlighting the value of this new service, Duncan Licence, Chief Product Officer at Parkopedia, said: “We are pleased that Hyundai AutoEver has proven that our Indoor Maps service can be successfully integrated into its vehicles and highly valued by its users. We are committed to making cities more livable, with this technology contributing immensely to end-to-end multi-modal travel and seamless mobility across a variety of everyday use cases.” About Parkopedia Parkopedia, acquired by Arrive in 2025, is the leading connected car services provider used by automakers, organisations and millions of drivers around the world. Parkopedia helps drivers find and pay for parking, EV charging, fuel and tolls across 90 countries. Parkopedia is also developing highly detailed indoor maps and corresponding algorithms to help drivers and self-driving vehicles navigate to available parking spaces and EV chargers.

Fine Airport Parking Selects Zevtron to Power EV Charging at George Bush Intercontinental Airport Location

Houston, TX — Fine Airport Parking, a leader in premium off-airport parking services, announced that it has selected Zevtron, a cutting-edge electric vehicle (EV) charging technology provider, to deliver scalable and infrastructure-friendly EV charging at its two facilities serving George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) in Houston. As part of the initial deployment, Zevtron will install 16 chargers supporting 32 EV charging ports across both garages. Each charger will be powered by Zevtron’s white- labeled operating system, which provides Fine Airport Parking total control over who can use chargers and how they can be used, while also allowing the company to monetize EV charging. Zevtron’s platform is hardware agnostic, so it can be implemented to manage existing chargers at Fine Airport Parking locations, as well as the Zevtron chargers being deployed now at George Bush International Airport. Because it’s white labeled, the platform will allow Fine Airport Parking to expand their brand into EV Charging. “Zevtron’s platform is by far the most innovative, user-friendly, and cost-effective EV charging solution we’ve come across,” said John Davey, Senior VP of Marketing and Strategy for Fine Airport Parking. “Because it’s fully customizable, it will give us complete control over how we manage and monetize our EV assets.” Zevtron is implementing an innovative low-power charging system that allows multiple vehicles to be charged from a single 40-amp electrical feed, delivering multiple-port functionality per device. This approach enables Fine Airport Parking to leverage its existing electrical infrastructure with no additional utility or infrastructure upgrades—making the transition to EV support fast, efficient, and cost-effective. This creative approach enables parking owners and institutions to “right size” their operations, providing a customized charging approach that meets the owner’s unique needs while supporting the rapid growth of electric vehicle adoption. And it makes EV charging technology much more affordable and accessible to smaller operations and owners who have experienced sticker shock in the past from the prices of legacy EV charging technology providers. “The Zevtron platform also has the scalability we need so the system will grow with us,” said Davey. “Being able to include EV charging with our reservation platform or implement pricing strategies will be extremely beneficial to us, as well as to our customers. Zevtron is giving us a turnkey solution that will allow us to easily recoup our investment because of the level customization they offer.” Zevtron’s dual-port, low-power approach represents a breakthrough in EV infrastructure that emphasizes smarter and more efficient use of existing resources. This slow-charge approach is also perfect for airports because travelers typically park for several days at a time. “Fine Airport Parking is one of America’s leading independent parking owner/operators, and we’re proud to support their EV infrastructure strategy,” said Bob Andrews, Zevtron’s founder. “Our platform is designed to offer seamless scalability, smart energy management, and powerful customization tools—making it ideal for owners and operators looking to deliver premium EV charging without breaking the grid or the budget.” Following the successful deployment at IAH, Fine Airport Parking plans to roll out Zevtron EV charging solutions at its Hobby Airport location in Houston, followed by facilities serving Denver International Airport and Tulsa International Airport. About Fine Airport Parking Fine Airport Parking is a premier off-airport parking provider with state-of-the-art facilities across the United States. Known for its customer-first approach, Fine offers high-end amenities, convenience, and security to travelers flying out of major airports.
