For the first time, listeners can seamlessly discover extra shows, podcasts, and exclusive station content - linked directly from the dashboard to the broadcaster’s own app or platform.
Already the number one hybrid radio solution on European roads, Radioplayer is integrated into over four million cars across fifteen major automotive brands. With this new prototype, broadcasters stay in control of how their content is accessed and presented—on their terms, not dictated by third parties.
"This is more than an idea—it’s a working solution that broadcasters can shape," said Yann Legarson, CEO of Radioplayer. "This prototype is the result of years of close collaboration with both the automotive industry and the radio sector, working on behalf of broadcasters to secure radio’s prominence in the connected car. Radioplayer is uniquely positioned to bridge this gap, ensuring that radio remains central in dashboards, not controlled by third parties. By combining hybrid radio, seamless device sync, and direct links to broadcaster content, we’re not just innovating, we’re delivering the experience listeners expect: easy, smart, and always available."
For the first time, listeners can seamlessly discover extra shows, podcasts, and exclusive station content - linked directly from the dashboard to the broadcaster’s own app or from Radioplayer. This ensures that radio remains rich, dynamic, and competitive alongside other in-car audio options.
