Today, I’m joined by Eddie Nath, Head of Sales for North America at Mobilisights Connect, Stellantis’ Data Business Unit, to explore how connected vehicle data is changing fleet management in 2026 and beyond. We talk about how fleets weigh the real costs of electrification, and why privacy and consent matter when vehicle data is shared.

Eddie explains how anonymized, aggregated data can help transportation agencies understand traffic patterns, improve traffic flow, support first-responder planning, and inform safer road design. We also discuss the shift from plug in OBD-II devices to OEM-embedded connectivity in newer vehicles, plus how built-in telematics can make it easier to activate vehicles at scale, monitor vehicle health, and use remote capabilities.

We get into the day-to-day value for fleet managers, from anticipating maintenance and reducing unplanned downtime to monitoring fuel use, tires, tolling, driver safety, and routes. Eddie also describes how real-time vehicle health reports can complement vehicle history reports, and how fleet data can help operators assess which vehicles may be good candidates for electrification.

To close, we look at the future of fleet data as part of a broader logistics and supply-chain ecosystem. Eddie’s central message is clear: OEM data is becoming a way for automakers to partner with customers across their operations, including fleets that use vehicles from multiple manufacturers.
