      GM is also competing for a piece of the $5.5 billion connected commercial vehicle market, as PYMNTS reported recently.

      The company offers a fleet telematics solution called OnStar Vehicle Insights that features a vehicle locator, vehicle health, driver behavior, performance insights, daily trip summaries and remote commands.
